About Chiropractic
The
purpose of wellness health care through Chiropractic is to address
the underlying cause of your health condition, not merely cover up
the symptoms. For example, pain is a symptom; it is a message from
your body to your brain telling you something is wrong. Simply
addressing the problem by medicating the pain only allows the
underlying condition to get worse.
Chiropractic health care is a branch of the healing arts based on
the science of the nervous system, which controls or influences the
function of every cell in the body. The nervous system, which
extends from the spinal cord and the brain, relates to the cells to
which the nerves travel. Interference with the nervous system caused
by a subluxation, which is a joint that is misaligned and/or lacks
proper motion, affects how the nervous system relates to the cells.
