- What is Chiropractic Medicine?

The primary goal of chiropractic medicine is to reduce the interference to the nervous system caused by subluxations (the lack of normal movement between each vertebra) through specific adjustments applied at distinct levels in the spine. Anyone will experience less dysfuncion when ther is a better communication between the brain and the trillion of cells that compose the human body.

Chiropractic began and continues today with a sound philosophy based on simple anatomical facts:

• The central nervous system controls and coordinates every function of the human body via the spinal cord.
• The spinal cord travels through holes in all of the bones (24 vertebra and the sacrum) that make up the protective, movable shell we know as the spine.
• The delicate nerves that transmit information between the brain and the body in the form of electrical impulses exit the spine at every vertebral level, from the top of the neck to the tailbone.
• Any time that there is interference or "static" to the nervous system, the human body cannot possibly function at 100% of its potential
