Company description
UNDERSTANDING CHIROPRACTIC
When a vertebra or joint in your body loses its normal position and motion it is referred to as a subluxation. Joints which are not aligned properly will not move properly and this generate stress on the surrounding tissues, i.e. the muscles, ligaments, tendons, discs and joint surfaces causing these structures to become injured or even damaged. Subluxations can also place pressure on the nerves and cause them to malfunction. Your nervous system controls and coordinates ALL the functions of your body. If you interfere with the signals traveling over nerves, parts of your body will not get the proper nerve messages and will not be able to function at 100%.
Subluxations are caused by everyday activities that place strain on your body: e.g. acute trauma to the body, repetitive motions, bad postural habits, improper workstation design, weak or imbalanced musculature, poor dietary and nutritional practices, drug and alcohol use and abuse, and the ingestion of chemical toxins in the foods you eat, air you breathe, and water you drink, excessive stress or inadequate stress management skills, etc.
Doctors of Chiropractic are the only professionals who undergo 6 years of training to be the experts at correcting subluxations. Chiropractors locate subluxations, and reduce or correct them through a series of chiropractic adjustments. This is the application of a quick but gentle corrective thrust into the subluxated vertebrae or joint. The adjustment can be delivered manually through the hands or can be applied through the use of a specialized tool. Other techniques such as flexion distraction, spinal decompression, traction, mobilisation techniques, massage, heat and cold therapy, dry needling, strapping techniques, stretch and exercise programs, etc. are often used as complimentary treatment modalities.
Service Areas
WHEN SHOULD I SEE MY CHIROPRACTOR? Signs and symptoms commonly associated with subluxations: * Neck pain, tenderness, soreness and stiffness * Back pain, tenderness, soreness and stiffness * Headaches * Dizziness or balance problems * Spinal muscle spasm, tightness or weakness * Reduced spinal mobility * Pain, numbness or tingling in the extremities * Joint pain and stiffness * Low energy * Poor overall state of health * Poor tissue healing * Colic * Low back pain during pregnancy When you are not experiencing pain or discomfort it does not mean that you are "subluxation free". Pain is only a symptom of the disease process. Subluxations are similar to tooth cavities in that many times a significant amount of damage is present before symptoms such as pain are felt. This is why we recommend that individuals seek periodic spinal evaluations and maintenance therapy to check for the presence of subluxations and other spinal abnormalities.
