Chiropractic Care

What is Chiropractic Care?

The profession of Chiropractic has been constantly studied and refined since its discovery in 1895. In this time, many approaches to care for the spine and nerve system have been developed and are used today. The basis of Chiropractic is the evaluation and treatment of imbalances that we develop in our spine and extremity joints. These imbalances, or as Chiropractors refer to them, “subluxations”, are the results of the individual’s nerve system attempting to adapt to our everyday mental, physical and/or chemical stress. This adaptation results in torsion, twisting and misalignment of the spine that houses the spinal cord, a major part of your nerve system. 

Because of this, it is our philosophy that everyone who is alive and has stress in their lives, should have their spines periodically checked and balanced. This not only helps relieve pain and discomfort, but it will help to prevent injuries and the development of spinal wear and tear (arthritis). The list of benefits of Chiropractic care is extensive. By keeping your spine aligned and mobile, your nerve system has the greatest ability to carry its vital messages to every cell in your body. When you are balanced, your body has the opportunity for every cell to function at its highest level of health and heal itself.
