Chiropractic is widely recognized as one of the safest drug-free, non-invasive therapies available for the treatment of back pain, neck pain, joint pain of the arms or legs, headaches, and other neuromusculoskeletal complaints.

In addition to being a safe form of treatment, spinal manipulation is incredibly effective, getting patients back on their feet faster than traditional medical care. Spinal manipulations, or adjustments, work to improve joint mobility, restore range of motion and reduce muscle spasm, which helps relieve pressure and tension. The adjustment is a precise procedure that is generally applied by hand to the joints of the spine. Patients typically notice a reduction in pain, soreness, stiffness, and improved ability to move. With this comes more vitality. Our bodies have an innate intelligence to them. If not interfered with, the body can self-regulate and self-heal.

Our bodies are very powerful, and all healing potential runs through our nervous systems. The purpose of the brain and nervous system is to control and coordinate the functions of all tissues, organs, and systems in the body and to adapt the organism to its environment.

Interference to the nerves comes in many forms that are both acute (accidents, falls, bad sleeping posture) to chronic (repetitive stresses, chronically poor postures and constant stress.) When joints in the spine get “stuck” and compress the nerves, this is called a vertebral subluxation complex. This interference to the nerves and surrounding tissues leads to an interference in function, adaptation and overall health. When the body cannot self-adjust this subluxation, it’s time to see your Chiropractor.

Chiropractors are the only doctors who have years of training and expertise in finding and removing these subluxations. Chiropractic allows the body to heal itself by re-establishing communication between the brain and every tissue and organ in your body.

Along with proper diet, rest and exercise, Chiropractic is key to keeping your body healthy and full of natural vitality.
