Chiropractic care works by strengthening and balancing the nervous system in order to promote the healthy functioning of the body.
Your nervous system consists of your brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of your body, and it controls the function of virtually every cell, tissue, organ, and bodily system.
If the nervous system is compromised or over-taxed, pain and dysfunction can result, not only in the spine, but in other parts of the body as well.
One of the most common causes of nervous system disruptions is subluxation joints that are locked up, fixated, and not moving properly.
Chiropractic care includes gentle massage and manipulation of the spine and extremities to restore proper joint function and strengthen supporting muscles and soft tissues.
