Most people think that chiropractic care helps those who suffer from neck pain, back pain, and sometimes headaches. While proven safe and effective for these conditions, it is only a small fraction of the benefits of chiropractic. Even though we see chiropractors treating patients by adjusting and aligning their bones, it is the body’s nervous system that they are affecting through care. The nervous system directs the function of every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body.
Chiropractic is a natural and preventive approach to health. Misalignments in the spine and joints termed “subluxations” cause abnormal joint motion and create interference in nervous system communication.

Decreased function and movement in your body decreases its ability to adapt and overcome the daily stresses of life. This often leads to weakness, fatigue, and disease.
The chiropractor enhances your body’s potential to heal itself by ensuring that the nervous system has uninterrupted communication with all parts.

You can go for weeks without food, days without water, minutes without air, but not even for a second without the life energy and information flowing through your nerves.
