Chiropractic Explained Simply


Inside our spinal column there is the spinal cord. The spinal cord is a thick ‘power cable’ that is responsible for carrying trillions of tiny electrical impulses from the brain to all the different parts of our body. Embedded within these tiny electrical impulses are nature’s instructions to activate life within our cells.  These impulses instruct the heart to pump, a wound to mend, the intestine to digest, the lungs to breathe and the immune system to keep us safe from foreign invasion.  The nervous system clearly shows us how the body truly is a self-healing and self-regulating organism.  We are designed to heal ourselves!  It just needs one thing, and that is no interference of any kind.

One of the unfortunate things that can go wrong within our bodies is something called a “Vertebral Subluxation”.  A subluxation is an injury to the nervous system, which often occurs due to childhood traumas such as a slip on the ice, a tackle while playing sports or even a traumatic birth event. Such injuries cause an impingement in spinal cord or the spinal nerve roots that exit between the vertebra of the spinal column. Not a good thing!

As a result, the flow of the instructional electrical impulses of your nervous system become interfered and can no longer get to where they are required to go.  The communication between the brain the body breaks down. Consequently, your body will no longer be able to function the way it is designed and programmed to and will malfunction.  Left uncorrected your body will shift from a state of ease to a state of dis-ease

Eventually, when the body can no longer handle the injury on its own, it will begin to talk to you in a language that you can understand, and this is called symptoms.  Symptoms are your body’s inner alarm system which goes off to tell you that something is going wrong on the inside of you that needs to be corrected.   Pain, digestive issues, bladder problems, numbness and tingling, shortness of breath, just to name a few, are all examples of symptoms that indicate that something is going wrong on the inside that needs to be corrected.

Our chiropractic doctor is highly trained and experienced, on how to properly diagnose, locate and correct (‘adjustment’) spinal subluxations in both adults and young children.   The chiropractic adjustment is a very safe, gentle and effective method of removing interference to the spinal cord and restoring normal nerve flow of the central nervous system.  


Testimonials

“My wife and two kids got the help that I didn’t know they needed till it was pointed out. My daughters tilted posture was causing issues with her digestive system it was also causing her feet to pronate. What was easily fixed over a couple of months gives us a good feeling that we probably stopped a whole lot of future issues for my kids and ourselves.”
