What is Chiropractic?
‘The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will instruct his patient in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease’
Thomas Edison
Your body’s innate intelligence helps your body to self heal, adapt and thrive. Just like when you have a paper cut. As long as you keep it clean, it just heals without you having to think about it or do anything.
Your innate intelligence is regulated by your brain and spinal cord (the nervous system). A healthy nervous system means that each process can happen correctly, allowing for optimal function of your body. Chiropractic care diagnoses, treats and prevents disorders of your musculoskeletal system and their effects on the nervous system.
‘Your body is designed to self heal,
adapt and thrive!’
Your chiropractic care starts with a health questionnaire where we go through your medical history, your current concerns and health goals. An exam consists of a physical, neurological, orthopaedic and postural assessment. The findings give a thorough analysis of the health of your nervous system, the function and mobility of your spine and other joints, and your overall health.
People often consult us because of pain. Many also use chiropractic care to prevent future health problems and to feel their best.
Chiropractic adjustments release the tension found throughout the spine and joints of your body. This improves mobility, function and brain-body communication so that your body can heal and recover naturally.
