We are dedicated to helping people regain and hold onto control of their health through a holistic chiropractic approach.
Chiropractic is an approach to health that utilizes the body's inherent and natural recuperative powers. Chiropractic is a healing science that places emphasis on maintaining the structural integrity of the body. Chiropractic is a method of health care that is conservative and that does not utilize drugs or surgery.
Chiropractic, from its early beginnings, has endorsed the idea of wellness. It is a holistic (total person) method that deals with treating the cause of the problem rather than just the symptoms.
Chiropractic considers all aspects of the patient's life: family history; work; lifestyle and environment; diet; exercise regimen; the attention to prevention; and the patient's physical and emotional stress factors.
Chiropractic is based on several essential principles, including:
The nervous system, comprised of the brain, the spinal cord and billions of nerve fibers, controls and coordinates all other organs and structures, and relates the individual to the changing environment.
The bony spine, although designed to protect the delicate nervous tissue within, can have restricted range of motion and affect the nerves. This interferes with nerve communications within the body. The displaced vertebra is called a subluxation. Experience and now research studies have shown that adjusting the subluxation can relieve nerve interference and allow the body to function normally, thus maintaining health.
