| Chiropractic is the Science, Art and Philosophy that
concerns itself with the restoration of good health by
restoring and maintaining a properly functioning nervous
system, without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic is
based on the scientific fact that your body is a
self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important
functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all
the nerves of the body. The skull protects the delicate
tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect
the vulnerable communication pathways of the spinal cord and
nerve roots. If the nervous system is impaired, it can cause
malfunction of the tissues and organs throughout the body.
Doctors of Chiropractic call this the Vertebral Subluxation
Complex. The Chiropractic adjustment has been proven to
increase motion, increase circulation, reduce swelling and
pain, and remove nervous irritation. It has been postulated
that once this nervous irritation is removed, your body is
able to do what it is designed to do - heal itself. Chiropractors help in restoring nervous system function. Many chiropractors also focus on the biomechanics of the body such as joint motion. Helping to restore proper spinal biomechanics and improved nervous system function begins with a case history. Your case history is vital, as it reveals the background about your health such as surgeries, accidents, the onset of your condition, and other details, which brought you into the office. After reviewing your history and discussing your specific problem, a thorough orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examination is performed. X-rays may be taken which will help uncover structural and functional problems as well as to look for a pathological cause of your complaint. Then, once the examination is complete, your chiropractor will explain the findings and outline a treatment plan. Progress is then monitored with periodic examination and follow-up reports. |
