What Is
"Chiropractic"
Health Care?
First and foremost, chiropractic
is a way to get out of pain and
back into life fast, without drugs,
surgery, or shots. It works!
The word "chiropractic" basically
means "practice by hand."
These are the basic chiropractic
concepts:
1) Chiropractic doctors reduce pain and improve health by finding, reducing or eliminating the nerve pressure that can cause pain and other health problems. Various standard physical examination methods are used to find the problem areas (usually related to the spine). The doctor then uses carefully-applied pressure - multiple-impulse technology here at ProCare - to relieve the nerve pressure, freeing-up the body to return to health.
1) Our nervous system, directly or
indirectly, controls every cell in our
body (scientific fact). If the nervous
system doesn't work correctly,
your body can't be truly healthy.
2) The nervous system won't function properly (so you can't be totally healthy) if it's interfered with. Interference, in the form of pressure on the nerves, can happen at or near the spine, where major nerve bundles are located.
3) These nerve bundles have millions of separate fibers and carry all kinds of information from the body to the brain and the brain back to the body.
4) If the vertebrae (spinal bones) aren't moving right or are out of alignment, this can cause interference/pressure on the
nerves.This condition is called Nerve Impingement Syndrome or "subluxation." It can cause pain and problems with other body parts, and keep you from being healthy.
It's VERY important to know that the absence of symptoms (like pain, stiffness, tingling) does not equal good health! An example: in approximately 33% of all heart attacks, the first symptom of the undetected heart disease is death!
5) This frees-up the nervous system to do its job of creating and maintaining health.
Take care of your body before problems crop up (and after you've been cured of them)!
