Body

Chiropractic science is a healing art based on the fact that the nervous system controls every cell in our body. The central nervous sytem is made up of the brain and the spinal cord. Motor Nerves control muscles, Autonomic Nerves control blood vessels, organs, and glands, Sensory Nerves transmit pain. The main responsibility of the central nervous system is to control and coordinate the function of the entire body, plus adapt and relate to its environment.

How does this happen?
The human system is controlled by the brain which tells every cell, tissue, organ, muscle and bone, how to move and function. Communication between the brain and the rest of the body is done through the Nervous System. An interference in the nervous system, such as a spinal bone out of alignment, also known as a vertebral subluxation, causes a breakdown in communication between the brain and the body resulting in dys-function and dis-ease. Uncorrected subluxations cause muscle weakness, spasm, fatigue, low energy, breathing problems, stomach issues, allergies, and in severe cases even cancer and death. Chiropractic is the science of removing the spinal subluxations through manual manipulation restoring the brain / body communication loop and proper body function.

What causes subluxations?
Physical, bio-chemical, emotional, and mental STRESS cause subluxations in the Nervous System. This is how our body deals with stress. Instead of your body having a heart attack in response to a stress overload, your spine will subluxate. If you have this corrected, then you restore health naturally. Uncorrected subluxations lead to dis-ease, then ill health (disease), infirmity and eventually death.
