Chiropractic

"Look to the Nervous System as the key to maximum Health" ~ Galen
Chiropractic is the Science, Art, and Philosophy of restoring neurological and mechanical function to the body by removing nerve interference. Nerve interference occurs when the signals along the nerve path have become compromised, often by fixations or misalignments of the bony structures that the nerves pass near or through. These misalignments are called "Subluxations" (a "luxation" is a complete dislocation), and the fixations are where the movable joints have become "fixated"; that is, having impaired movement due to the mechanical misalignment, soft tissue splinting, or degeneration. Together these make up the "Subluxation Complex", and will effect the biomechanics of not only that particular joint, but also others in that chain of movement as well as the soft tissue structures in between. Abnormal biomechanical function will cause abnormal stress to the body, and the effected joints will begin to break down and degenerate. Chiropractors use a variety of techniques to realign the affected bony segments, restoring proper biomechanical function and relieving the nerve interference.
Our brain must constantly monitor all the activity of the body, not just how we interact with our external environment, but the responses of our internal environment (digestion, breathing, heartbeat, response to stress, hormone secretion, etc.). When the nerve pathways are opened up, better communication between the brain and end organs are more efficient and optimal function is restored.
