chiropractic profession have focused on getting people well without medicine or
invasive operations. That has been my goal since beginning practice in 1982.
What is Chiropractic Healthcare? It is a system of diagnosis and treatment based
on the theory that health and disease are processes influenced by the function of the
spine and nervous system. Chiropractic doctors are concerned with the diagnosis,
treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and
the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general
health. Chiropractic doctors have traditionally called these mechanical disorders
vertebral subluxations. Other terms for these disorders include joint dysfunction and
somatic dysfunction. Treatment emphasizes hands-on approaches including spinal
manipulation or what we call an adjustment.
Research indicates that chiropractic adjustments improve spinal joint mobility,
increase pain tolerance, release chemicals that improve blood flow to the area that is
treated, release pain relieving chemicals and decrease circulating inflammatory
chemicals, all without the side-effects of medications. In a sense, chiropractic
adjustments fill prescriptions from the pharmacist in your body.
Chiropractic treatment almost always includes exercises for flexibility, strength and
stability and often includes other hands-on approaches such as myofascial release.
I know that no single approach is successful for all people and all problems. I work
with each patient to find the best solution or combination of solutions to reach the
goal of improved health.
