What Is Chiropractic Care?
We're glad you asked! Chiropractic care is a drug-free,
non-surgical approach to healing and wellness. Chiropractic care
restores health and prevents injury by improving the structural
integrity of the body, primarily the spine. The brain communicates with
the rest of the body via the spinal cord and nervous system. When
functioning perfectly, this communication is uninterrupted,
and the messages go to and from the brain without interference.
Addressing the Root of the Problem
The nervous system serves as the body's wiring. If this wiring is
inhibited, the signal does not reach the intended body part, and
dysfunction may result. Such interferences can manifest anywhere
along your spine. Pain in your arm or hand may actually be caused by a
problem in your neck, where the nerves connecting to that hand
originate. A qualified chiropractor can examine the spine for
interferences and remove them through controlled techniques.
Established Practice
According to The Association of Chiropractic Colleges, chiropractic care focuses on the relationship of structure and function (as coordinated by the nervous system), and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of your health. Qualified chiropractors are professional healthcare providers, delivering long-term care at a fraction of the cost of drug treatments and surgery.
