What is Chiropractic?

_____________________________________________________________________

Most people think that chiropractic is a treatment for neck and back pain.  It is true that we do see quite a few patients suffering from such problems.  However, it is important to understand that chiropractic is much more than the simple relief of pain.  My patients are amazed to discover that most of the problems that we experience in our adult years actually began in childhood, even as early as during the birth process because it is so traumatic.

This is why in our office we place so much emphasis on children and their growth and development.  Your child’s spine is his/her lifeline.  The spinal cord is the connection between the brain and the body and within it billions of messages travel up and down to allow the body to function properly.  It is like having your own information “super highway” inside your body.  It is vital to make sure that this highway has nothing blocking or interfering with it so that the brain’s messages can be sent to where they need to go.  If there is an obstruction on this highway then the body starts to malfunction.  This can be a serious threat to health and even life.

This is where chiropractic comes in.  We call these obstructions “vertebral subluxations” – misalignments of the spinal bones that cause interference to the spinal cord and spinal nerves.

My job is to find these misalignments and correct them so that your body can properly heal itself and express true health.
