Our Chiropractic care is divided into two parts: spinal analysis and spinal adjustment or correction.
Chiropractic care is a natural method of health care that treats the causes of physical problems rather than just the symptoms. With a normally functioning spine and nerves and a healthy lifestyle, your body is better able to heal itself.
First, we will analyze your spine using various tools: Physical Examination, X-Rays, Heat/Ice therapy and also electrical stimulation. Then, after we have located the precise area of correction, we will then do an adjustment.
A Chiropractic adjustment is a gentle stretching of two bones of your neck or back which corrects spinal subluxations, thereby removing interference to the nervous system. Since the nervous system controls all functions and healing in the body and can be put in jeopardy by spinal dysfunction. It is imperative that everyone has an optimal spinal function. The spine is the most common area which interference to the nervous system occurs.
