CHIROPRACTIC BASICS
| Chiropractic is a healthcare system based upon the following principle: |
|
Interference with the body's innate inner communication allows disease to affect the body. The Chiropractic Physician, doctor of chiropractic, or Chiropractor uses various techniques to restore inner communication and allow your body to function at it's optimum level and recover from disease. The primary technique associated with chiropractic is the manual adjustment of the spine to release nerve interference and restore proper motion caused by a subluxation. Your doctor is also trained in more traditional diagnostic analysis of your body fluids such as: blood work, saliva, and urine. Your doc is even familiar with labwork involving stool samples. Chiropractic Physicians are the best choice when searching for a doctor who does not prescribe drugs or surgery. The non-traditional method of allowing your body to heal itself, has lead mainstream medicine to label chiropractic complementary or alternative medicine. In our office, in addition to the traditional labwork, we incorporate other chiropractic techniques which address more esoteric causes of decreased inner communication, such as the stagnation of the body's energy, the stress of emotional accumulation on the body, or nutritional deficiencies. Your body will tell the story, it is your doctors job to listen and explain why it is saying it, along with what you can do to help. |
