First of all, your state of health, your ability to regain your health when you
become sick or impaired, are governed by five factors; diet, rest, exercise, mental
attitude and a sound nervous system. Your nervous system controls everything.
Heal a cut, snap your fingers, speed up you heart, listen for a babies cry,turn food into blood cells, fight off
infection...all the result of a functioning nervous system.
Mental impulses
leave the brain and travel down the information superhighway of your spinal column to every cell, tissue, organ and system of
you body. Then, a signal is sent back to your brain so it knows everything is working correctly.
If controlling mental impulses are missing, impaired, interfered with, the organs and tissues controlled by the affected
nerve do not work as they should. Numbness, tingling and pain can be experienced, setting the stage for all types of
disease and ill health. Irritated nerves can overstimulate affected organs or tissues contributing to allergic reactions,
abnormal muscle tone, excess stomach acid, and autoimmune disease. These types of responses are called symptoms.
Symptoms occur when nerve function is impaired. Frequently this interference comes from the
24 moving bones of the spinal column and the surrounding soft tissues like muscles, tendons, ligaments and discs. Your spinal
column permits you to turn and bend, while allowing nerve roots on either side to exit from between each spinal joint.
These nerves connect your brain with the organs and tissues of your body. When the bones of
the spine lose their normal motion or position, Doctors call this vertebral subluxation complex, or more commonly, a
subluxation.
We commonly seek care for a subluxation when we have pain or
other symptoms. Subluxations can affect organs and tissues that do not sense pain, so you could actually have one right now
but not know it. This is true with any health related problem. Often the first sign of cardiovascular disease is a deadly
heart attack. Just relying on how you feel is a poor measure of your health.
Chiropractic
seeks to find the cause of your problems and help correct subluxations that may be interfering with your nervous system. This
is done through chiropractic adjustments. Adjustments help bones and surrounding soft tissues to return to their proper motion
and position, relieving symptoms.
Chiropractic seeks to relieve the cause
of your symptoms. You are a self-regulating, self-healing organism, not a machine. True health is your natural state and is
programmed into your cells and expressed through your nervous system when there isn't any interference. Try chiropractic today.
It's more than you think.
