Chiropractic
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is a Philosophy, Science and Art which utilizes the inherent recuperative powers of the body and deals with the relationship between the brain, the body and the nervous system for the restoration and promotion of health.
Chiropractic is a healing science that places emphasis on maintaining the structural integrity of the body. It is an approach to health care that is conservative and does not use any drugs or surgery. It is also a method of restoring, maintaining and promoting tone, so that al the cells of the body vibrate at their proper frequency.
The Major Premise of Chiropractic:
A Universal Intelligence is in all matter and continually gives to it all, its properties and action, thus maintaining it in existence.
Chiropractic Adjustments
The goal of the chiropractic adjustment is to correct vertebral subluxations. A subluxation is a misalignment or biomechanical malfunctioning of the vertebrae. These misalignments irritate, stretch, rub or chafe the nerve, distorting the messages sent between the brain and the body. Trauma, stress, posture problems, or other factors may cause these misalignments.
