Chiropractic Care
The body is a self healing organism with the nervous system as the master control. All body functions depend on the electrical transmission of the nerves to coordinate all organs and systems in our bodies.  Since an individual's health is either directly or indirectly controlled by the nervous system, interference within this system impairs normal function and lowers resistance to disease.   Spinal mobility is vital to protect nerve function and restricted mobility can alter nerve function by placing pressure on the electrical transmission of the nerves.  Chiropractic treatment is based upon restoring the proper electrical function of the nervous system.  Through chiropractic adjustments, nervous system interference due to abnormalities in the musculoskeletal relationships of the vertebrae (called subluxations) can be corrected. This allows the nervous system to function properly, enabling the body to self-regulate and self-heal through its own natural recuperative powers.  Chiropractors are highly skilled in the art of adjusting all the articulations of the body, thereby reducing or minimizing the effects of chronic or acute trauma and biomechanical instability. The adjustment is a gentle and specific maneuver which can be applied effectively and safely to people no matter their age.  Every cell, tissue, organ and system of the body is controlled and regulated by the nervous system. In 1895, chiropractic was founded based upon this very fact. A properly functioning nervous system allows for a properly functioning body. A close relationship exists between the nervous system and the spine. Any of the 24 movable bones of the spine can have an irritative effect on the nerves exiting the spinal cord. Many everyday activities can cause these spinal bones to lose both proper position and motion leading to nervous system irritation. Doctors of chiropractic refer to this as Subluxation.
