CHIROPRACTIC  PHILOSOPHY

Chiropractic adjustments are designed to remove subluxations, or a misaligning of the vertebrae of the spine.  Regular chiropractic care can restore normal body function and alleviate a patient’s pain and discomfort.  There are three things that can cause individuals to be subluxated.  These are thoughts, traumas, and toxins. 

Thoughts: anxiety, financial concerns, doubts, health worries, stress, economic fears, etc. These can all have a negative effect on a person’s overall health. 

Traumas: sports injuries, falling down, and car accidents.  There are also less obvious traumas like missing a step going down the stairs, walking into the corner of a wall, or sleeping in an awkward position.  Often what we do during the day or for a living cause the symptoms and pain that we have to deal with.  Repetitive job functions, sitting behind a computer all day, driving for long periods of time, working a manual labor job or in a factory are common examples of ways people develop pain, discomfort, and a subluxated spine. 

Toxins are in the things we eat, drink, and breathe.  Americans have an increasing diet of fast food, caffeinated soft drinks, artificial preservatives, artificial sweeteners, additives, processed foods, synthetically produced products, hormone fed chicken or beef, chemicals, high fructose corn syrup, and pesticide grown crops.  It is no wonder people are so unhealthy today.  The human body has never had to adapt to its toxic environment more than it does in these current times.  

Chiropractic care can help with many types of ailments.  Some people think chiropractic is only used for neck or back pain, but it is a health profession that provides much, much more.  Did you know that a chiropractor can order an MRI or CT just like any other medical professional and many people use a chiropractor as their primary care physician?  It is their first line of defense for any illness or problem they may have. A regimen consisting of proper diet, exercise, whole food supplements, and chiropractic care can address many illnesses and ailments that afflict today’s society.  Medical doctors are great at what they do, but prescription medication or surgery doesn’t have to be your first or your only option.

It is critically important for an individual to get adjusted if they are feeling sick or ill, because the immune system was unable to fight off the virus or infection on its own.  Chiropractic care helps to prevent sickness by keeping the nervous system functioning at its optimum.  By properly aligning the vertebrae and releasing any spinal nerve interference, the nerves can flow unimpeded to the tissues and organs that they innervate.  Since the nervous system controls all other systems of the body including the immune system, it is important to maintain the overall health of your nervous system with ongoing chiropractic care.

Patients, who have been educated and have seen first hand how chiropractic care maintains their overall health, tend to understand and better appreciate the value of regular chiropractic care in their lives.  These patients make it a higher priority to get adjustments on a regular basis as preventative maintenance care.
