Chiropractic plays an important role in your overall health. An irritated spinal nerve can be the cause of various health concerns and there is no better way to address this type of problem than with chiropractic care. Chiropractic relieves the symptoms of the problem by locating and removing these complex spinal joint problems; the cause of the symptoms.

A chiropractic adjustment is a high velocity, low force thrust on a specific spinal joint with the purpose of restoring proper motion to the affected joint.

The result of a poorly aligned spine is nerve irritation which:
 Alters nerve conduction which can cause pain and numbness to the area of the body associated with the involved nerve.
 Affects the blood supply to the area controlled by the nerve which leads to an improper oxygen and nutrient supply with weakened tissue (muscle and organ) as a result

Chiropractic adjustments are aimed at overcoming restrictive barriers in or around spinal joints. By restoring normal motion in the spine, adjustments also re-establish normal articular (joint) sensory input to the central nervous system. This allows the nervous system to properly direct and coordinate harmonious motor (neurological) programming. This allows information to reach the organs uninterrupted via the nerves exiting your spinal cord through your vertebrae.

By restoring normal joint motion and sensory input, adjustments:
 Re-establish normal neurological tone
 Reduce biomechanical stress
 Improve the functional, postural, and gravitational balance to the spinal joints.
 Reduce the chronic asymmetrical (uneven) forces on the joints which lead to an accumulation of micro-damage and eventual degeneration.
 Remove the biomechanical stress relieving spinal joint irritation which reduces joint capsule inflammation.

This relieves the primary cause of spinal nerve irritation and prevents long-term problems such as arthritis, chronic back pain, and mass bone loss.

Chiropractic adjustments allow proper communication between your brain and your organs. They help maintain a balanced spine, thus preventing long-term damage. They insure that your injured muscles are getting the oxygen and nutrients necessary for proper healing.
