What is Chiropractic?

Taking A Natural Approach To Healing

Chiropractic is an overall way of looking at the human body. It's based on the idea that the body is self-sustaining and self-healing. The body is in essence completely controlled by the brain through its connection via the spinal cord and the vast networks of nerves that make up the body. When this system is not functioning at its peak, the overall performance of the human body is lacking.

Chiropractic takes a vitalistic view to health, understanding the inborn innate potential humans have to heal. It is a drug-free, non-invasive discipline, that often encompasses a more wholistic approach to health. 

While it's often perceived that the chiropractor is solely here to treat back and neck pain, this is simply a small piece of what the profession really is capable of handling. Chiropractors not only treat soft and hard tissue problems such as sciatica and joint pain, but are largely called on to deal with more significant issues. Some of these issues include fibromyalgia, allergies, insomnia, headaches and many more. And more aptly applied, chiropractic care is used in the absence of symptoms as part of one's proactive health regimen, to provide optimal health and wellness.
