What do Chiropractors do?
Chiropractors work with the spine, not only as it's often the source of neck and back pain, but as it houses and protects the central nervous system which monitors, controls and regulates all body function. Chiropractic is the largest natural healing art in the world. It is based on the premise that the body is a self-healing organism and that the nervous system is the master control system of the body.
The nervous system controls every function performed by the body directly or indirectly, whether its digesting your dinner or fighting infection.
A Chiropractor maintains the position of the 24 moveable segments of your spine. These vertebrae perform the dual role of protecting the central nervous system and providing the axis for the entire musculo-skeletal system. If they are out of their natural alignment it causes interference in the way the spine and nervous system work.
What causes the spine to be out of alignment?
Spinal misalignments are typically caused by stress:
Physical stress may occur as the result of a car accident or slipping, posture, work trauma, or birth trauma.
Emotional stress may be the result of significant emotional trauma or the inability to adapt to a stressful situation.
Chemical trauma may result from the misuse of prescription or illicit drugs, inadequate nutrition, or environmental toxins.​
​Chiropractors detect and correct the cause of this interference, allowing your body to properly self-regulate, adapt and heal.
Who can benefit from Chiropractic care?
Chiropractic may be of benefit to people of all ages. The thorough assessment process carried out by the chiropractor will ensure you receive the care appropriate to your condition. Chiropractic has been effective in helping people with the following conditions:
