WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
Chiropractic is a natural health care discipline based on the idea that the body has an inborn capacity to regulate and support its own healing.
Every function of the body is controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body. “Chiropractic” comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos, meaning “done by hand.”
The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine, and pelvis) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. When this relationship is disrupted, some people may experience discomfort, reduced function or a decrease in general wellbeing.
The skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect the intricate communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots. If these nervous system pathways are affected by poor posture, injury or stress, this can influence muscle function, tissue health and other aspects of your wellbeing.
IT’S ALSO…
✔ Chiropractic involves assessing spinal and musculoskeletal alignment and the nervous system, and includes lifestyle support to help individuals maintain comfort and mobility.
✔ Chiropractic also places an emphasis on nutrition and exercise, wellness and healthy lifestyle modifications.
✔ Chiropractic aims to support your body’s natural capacity to function by addressing interference with the nervous system. When the nervous system is functioning well, your cells, tissues and organs may perform more effectively and support general wellbeing.
Through chiropractic care we aim to support alignment and nervous system function, and to help the body’s capacity for regeneration and regulation.
Your brain controls all function from how fast your heart should beat, what enzymes to produce and when for digestion, how to move your body and perceive every other sense in your body and more.
Your brain receives this information and tells your body how to function via the rest of your nervous system. Primarily through the “super highway” we call your spinal cord (see photo).
Much like your brain is encased in bone to protect it, so is your spinal cord. The difference is your spine is made up of 33 ‘movable’ bones. THAT difference is why your more susceptible to the physical, chemical and emotional stressors in life. When stressors accumulate they may contribute to spinal misalignment, which can interfere with the nervous system’s ability to relay signals efficiently
