What Is
"Chiropractic"
Health Care?


The word "chiropractic"
comes from the words:
'chiro' meaning 'by hand,'
and 'practic' meaning 'use' or
'technique.' Chiropractic health
care is natural - no drugs, surgeries or shots!

These are the basic chiropractic concepts:

1) Our nervous system, directly or indirectly, controls every cell in our body (scientific fact). Overall body health depends on the proper functioning of the nervous system.

2) The nervous system won't function properly if it's subjected to interference. This can cause a departure from health or "dis-ease". Often, interference happens at or near the spine, where major nerve bundles exit and go out to body structures.

3) These nerve bundles, containing millions of separate fibers, carry all kinds of information from the body to the brain and the brain to the body.






4) If the vertebrae (spinal bones) aren't moving right or are out of alignment, this can cause pressure on the nerves and nerve interference. This condition is called Nerve Impingement Syndrome or "subluxation."  It can cause pain and problems with other body parts.

5) Chiropractors reduce pain and improve health by finding, reducing or eliminating Nerve Impingement Syndrome. This frees-up the nervous system to do its job of creating and maintaining health.

It's VERY important to know that the absence of symptoms (like pain, stiffness, tingling) does not equal good health!

An example: in approximately 33% of all heart attacks, the first symptom of the undetected heart disease is death!

Taking care of your body before problems crop up (and after you've been cured of them) is called wellness care. Wellness care, being healthier, encompasses several aspects of overall health, and can include physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health.
