What is chiropractic? And what's a subluxation?

Chiropractic is a complete system of healthcare focused on restoring, preserving, and optimizing health by natural hands-on care. Chiropractic therapy consists of spinal manipulation, alignment, and adjustment, which are used to heal the body naturally. Adjustments restore health to the bones, joints, and muscles while reducing aches or discomfort due to the stresses in our life. Chiropractic focuses on a holistic approach to health care as it uses natural, drugless, and non-surgical treatment to restore the body and mind to its optimal state.

Subluxations are restrictions or partial dislocations of the joints, especially within the spine. Subluxations may occur due to chemical imbalances, injuries, trauma, or stress and can be an underlying cause of numerous health issues. If subluxations occur, they may interfere with the functioning of the vertebrae and nervous system and may cause nerve damage. Chiropractic care helps to recognize, reduce, and prevent subluxations through gentle spinal alignment by restoring spinal function and mobility.

Subluxations can lead to serious diseases and many chronic conditions, such as arthritis. While it’s unfortunate that so many diseases can be caused by subluxations, thankfully there is chiropractic therapy which can halt, eliminate, or even prevent these conditions. Chiropractors can eliminate subluxations, which can cause a restoration of health to the nervous system and immune system, as well as increase the strength and mobility of your joints. With gentle spinal alignment performed by a chiropractor, you can help restore your body to a healthy state.

Chiropractic has been around for nearly 120 years. It's safe and very effective with no side-effects. In fact, chiropractic treatment is one of the safest non-invasive and natural therapies for treating joint, neck, and back pain, as well as headaches and other health-related issues. The risks of chiropractic therapy are extremely small and the treatment is found to be very effective; helping patients return to better health faster than they would with medical care.

All ages benefit from chiropractic adjustments. I've seen newborns, middle-aged folks, and people confined to hospital beds all benefit. No matter what age or level of health you have, it’s a great idea to visit a chiropractor to make sure you’re not suffering from any subluxations. Chiropractic therapy can benefit people of any age, whether it’s a newborn who may have experienced subluxations during the birth process or an elderly person who suffers from arthritis. Restore the quality of your life by getting regular chiropractic check-ups.
