Chiropractic is a total health experience: a holistic alternative that can improve all aspects of the physical well being, from chronic pain to stress and injuries. This is because it is based on removing inteference that prevents and interrupts the proper functioning of your nervous system and how it keys in to all aspects of your health.
Poor communication between your brain and the rest of your body can lead to a variety of heath problems. Gentle chiropractic care helps address these issues before they manifest into serious problems.
Did you know that your body is the most sophisticated form of a “personal computer or PDA” in existence?
Whenever two bones come together at a joint, there can be movement. And since joints in your spine are close to your spinal cord and nerve roots, tension and imbalance in joint motion can have serious effects to your overall health.
If spinal bones get out of balance and position (due to physical stress), they can irritate or chafe delicate nerves. If the joints, muscles and connective tissue of your spine build up enough tension (usually from emotional and chemical stress) and press against adjacent nerve tissue, this can interfere with the vital “life force” transmitted over your nervous system that helps keep your brain in touch with your body.
This can affect more than bones and nerves. Muscles can become too tight or weak. Discs, ligaments and other connective tissues can become inflamed. Bone spurs and arthritic degeneration can set in.
