How does it work?

Chiropractic addresses the effects of nerve pressure in the spine and joint disfunction. The causes may be mechanical, chemical, or mental stress.

Mechanical causes are referred to as micro or macro traumas. Micro trauma can also be called a repetitive stress injury. Sitting with poor posture at a desk and typing all day can cause a micro trauma. This may result in carpal tunnel syndrome, neck, upper back, or low back pain. Macro trauma refers to pain due to a specific and direct trauma to the body, such as a slip, a fall, or an auto accident. Both forms of mechanical causes of joint dysfunction can benefit immensely from chiropractic care.

Another cause of joint dysfunction is chemical imbalance. Smoking, heavy drinking, chemical exposure and poor diet can create chemical imbalances in the body.

Mental stress can result in increased muscle tension. This may lead to abnormal position of the vertebrae and joint dysfunction.

Chiropractic helps to remove postural imbalances and structural misalignments that accumulate in our bodies over time. It works by restoring the body's innate ability to be healthy. For the body to remain healthy, the nervous system must function well. The nervous system to functions well when it is free of interference. Chiropractic adjustments restore spinal function by removing nerve interference from misaligned vertebrae, thus allowing optimal nervous system function and improved health.

The customized care you receive from your chiropractor may help to improve your posture, muscle balance and mobility. It can also restore the integrity of your nervous system and eliminate pain quickly enabling you to get back to feeling good today!
