You are joining many of your
neighbors who have discovered the benefits of holistic chiropractic care.
You may wonder, “What is chiropractic for?” Many people experience holistic
chiropractic as a natural, drug-free way to get healthy. For example, a
little boy who no longer suffers from ear infections may tell you:
“Chiropractic is for my ear.” A young woman nay tell you: “Chiropractic is
for menstrual problems.”Others may
tell you that chiropractic is for digestive problems, asthma, back or neck
pain, colds, headache, sciatica, neurological problems, colic, bed-wetting
any many more conditions to which the flesh is heir.
But it won’t be only talk of
disease. People also visit their chiropractor for more energy, for improved
sports performance, for feeling more alive, for better resistance and to
help ensure drug-free lives for themselves and their families.
Holistic
Chiropractic Care focuses on removing the 3 interferences of your body.
Optimal health contains three
components: structural, biochemical
and emotional. We are healthy when our structural, biochemical, and
emotional aspects are harmoniously balanced.
Holistic chiropractic care always
looks to restore this balance and identify and remove the structural,
biochemical and emotional interferences of your body.
First of all, subluxations
cause diminished nerve and organ function, which are corrected by chiropractic
adjustments. Second, our body’s chemistry centers around the foods we eat, the
toxins and allergens we’re exposed to. Emotions and how we respond to daily
events are the third cause of interference.
Subluxations.
Chiropractors remove a serious interference in
your life and health – the so called vertebral
subluxations – which prevent you from functioning at your best.
Subluxations put stress on the nerves and this has impact on other systems
and organs in your body. Free of vertebral subluxations, you are more
balanced with less stress on your nervous system and body structure.
Your
spinal column and nervous system.
Your nervous system is the
center of your thoughts, memory, learning and consciousness. Nerves control
muscle tension, blood vessel openings, glandular function, spatial
orientation, pain, touch, vibration, vision, hearing, taste, temperature
and other senses – nerves connect your inner and outer worlds.
Your spinal column is very
important, since it functions to house and protect your spinal cord. It
supports your hips and your shoulders, as well as your head and ribs, and
serves as an attachment to your muscles.
Your spine consists of 24
vertebrae plus your sacrum and coccyx.
Pressure on the nerves impacts
organs in your body.
As mentioned above, stress and
pressure on the nerves inhibit your organs and other systems to work
properly, and prevents the brain from communicating with those organs.
