What is Chiropractic?
According to The Association of Chiropractic
As the body’s recuperative powers are integrated through the nervous system, correcting spinal abnormalities which irritate the nervous system can lead to the relief of pain in patients suffering from various, seemingly non-spinal health conditions. Many things in your every day life can cause the 24 moving bones of your spinal column to lose their normal position and motion. Chiropractors call this a subluxation. When these bones lose their normal motion and position it sets off a chain reaction affecting the spinal bones, nerves, muscles, and soft tissues.This results in degenerative changes throughout the body. Subluxations appear as many symptoms, including headaches, lower-back pain, pain in the arms, pain in the legs, and in many other areas that you might not realize could be affected.
What Conditions Benefit from Chiropractic Care?
Many conditions and diseases get dramatic results from chiropractic care. Yours might be a condition that would also benefit from such care. I treat naturally-occurring problems such as headaches, bulging discs, low back pain, sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and TMJ problems. I also treat problems resulting from sports injuries, car accidents, and other kinds of trauma, as well as a wide variety of other conditions. The average person in the United States spends between $1,500 – $2,000 a year to maintain his or her car. The reason for doing this is to make certain problems are found and prevented, so that the car will last longer with fewer repairs. Preventive maintenance of the body is just as important.
The inflammation and degeneration affect the nervous system, resulting in numbness, tingling, aches, and electric pain. This is where Chiropractic comes into the picture. For instance, you can change your oil in your care every 7000 miles instead of every 3000. Your engine will still run, but it will eventually break down. The same goes for your spine. You can take no action to maintain it, but as you age your spine will deteriorate sooner and, eventually, cause you additional problems. Chiropractors focus on how the joints of the body work together. By adjusting the spine to carefully remove the subluxation, the subluxated vertebrae begin to move, allowing the disc to regain its nutrients, as well as range of motions. This adjustment also helps stop degeneration. Going to a chiropractor before pain is present allows subluxations to be corrected before they create problems.This is what we call maintenance or health optimization. One way of looking at it is that chiropractors serve as the mechanics or dentists for the spine and other joints. Have your spine checked for subluxations before the problem becomes painful and costly. The benefits of chiropractic can be applied to all aspects of your life from the athletic club to the workplace, giving you the added edge of a body performing at its finest.

What Chiropractors Do
Chiropractors are primarily concerned with locating and treating vertebral subluxations (misalignment of one or more vertebrae in the spinal column).
How is Chiropractic Different?
When evaluating and treating patients, chiropractors take a holistic approach which includes identifying and correcting the cause(s) of the patient’s health ailment. Chiropractors believe that correcting the cause of the problem provides significant long-term benefits over only treating the symptoms.
