Everyone can benefit from Chiropractic.  The principal is simple.  The nerve system, including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves control the function of our body and how we experience life. The spine protects this system and communication pathways between the brain and body.  The health of your spine directly affects the health of your life. Motion is Life!

Loss of motion in the spine causes SUBLUXATION. What does that mean? Sub (less)- lux (light)- Ation (state). A state of less light expression.  Who wants that?  Subluxations disconnect you from the power within, from who you are.  Chiropractors check the spine to remove Subluxation, which causes interference in your nerve system.  

No matter your age, condition or how you feel, it’s essential to get your spine checked for optimal life expression.  Chiropractic care promotes health naturally.  It adds years to your life and life to your years. 

   

What do you know about Chiropractic?

When I ask most people they say, “It’s for when you hurt your back, or you go to get your neck cracked.  Yes, Chiropractic does help to reduce musculoskeletal pain.  The “crack” you may hear is pressure being released from the joint capsule of the spine.  However, these descriptions are incomplete, and miss the big idea about the true PURPOSE of Chiropractic. The majority of people are misinformed about WHAT WE DO and WHY. 

As a Chiropractor, I educate people about natural health and the vital role of the NEURO-SPINAL SYSTEM in coordinating EVERY FUNCTION of the body.  Every single process that goes on within you, from the time you were conceived until death, is coordinated by your nervous system. It’s up to you to take care of it.

Chiropractors check the spine for SUB-LUX-ATION (the root cause of nerve interference), and apply SPECIFIC ADJUSTMENTS, allowing your body’s nerve system to restore balance, promoting healing from within.  No drugs or surgery are needed.  When’s the last time your nerve system was checked?  What about your kids?

People often tell me- Thank G-d I’ve never needed to go to a chiropractor… or I went once when I had a car accident, and I’m good now.  These responses show peoples lack of understanding about the importance of Chiropractics role in maintaining overall health.  Chiropractic enhances the flow of VITAL LIFE ENERGY between the BRAIN and BODY, creating OPTIMAL LIFE EXPRESSION.

Who wouldn’t want that?

DD Palmer, founder of Chiropractic, in his original office in Davenport, Iowa.

CHIROPRACTIC comes from the Greek words “cheir“ (hand) and “praktikós” (practice) meaning to practice or done by hand.  D.D. Palmer, the founder of Chiropractic, coined this term in 1895. 

The word ch’i or qi (energy flow, life force) originates from traditional Chinese culture; which describes a vital life-energy within all living things.  Chiropractic is founded on the fundamental principal that an organizing intelligence is inherent in all life.

Chiropractic focusses on improving the structure and function of the spine and nerve system; the master control network of the body. This improves the communication pathways between the brain and body, resulting in better health.

Chiropractors do not diagnose or treat symptoms using drugs or surgery.  Chiropractic is simple.  ADJUSTMENTS to the spine clear interference in nerve system, allowing the body to heal itself naturally.
