Is chiropractic effective?Chiropractic helps restore normal joint function and remove postural imbalances that can accumulate in our bodies over time. Chiropractic works by restoring your own inborn ability to be healthy. For your body to remain healthy, your nervous system must function well. By restoring proper intersegmental motion with Chiropractic adjustments this will allow for your body to utilize its normal biomechanics and neurophysiology that is required to live a healthy life.

How does chiropractic care work?Chiropractic is an overall way of looking at the human body. It's based on the idea that the body is self-sustaining and self-healing. The body is in essence completely controlled by the brain through its connection via the spinal cord and the vast networks of nerves that make up the body. When this system is not functioning at its peak, the overall performance of the human body is lacking. In the chiropractic world, drugs and medicine are not utilized as a form of treating a patient. While supplementation and nutrition are almost always a part of the bigger picture, drugs and prescriptions can be viewed as band-aids to treat symptoms rather than going to the source and treating the real problem.

What is a chiropractic adjustment? Is it safe?Adjustments, or manipulation as they're sometimes referred to is the minor movement of vertebrae in the spine. The objective of this movement is to restore intersegmental motion to the joints of the spine that are not moving through their normal range of motion for a number of reasons ranging from normal daily activity to trauma such as a car accident. An adjustment is often a pressure from the chiropractor utilizing the hands or an instrument to restore normal range of motion. This happens with a quick movement and is often without discomfort. You may hear a noise that sounds like you're cracking your knuckles referred to as joint cavitation. It is the release of gases such as oxygen and nitrogen from the joint.
