Chiropractic Care
As a natural method of health care, chiropractic focuses on addressing the causes of physical problems, rather than just the symptoms. Chiropractic is based on a simple but powerful premise: With a normally functioning spine and a healthy lifestyle, your body is better able to heal itself. That’s because the spinal cord, which is protected by the spine, is the main pathway of your nervous system. It controls feeling, movement and function throughout your body.
Unkinking the Hose
If your spine is misaligned, it’s like having a kink in a hose. When a hose is kinked, water can’t flow through it easily. It’s the same thing with the spine. Organs start to get affected and health can suffer. The chiropractic adjustment opens up the spine and “unkinks the hose.”
Benefits of Chiropractic Care

Spinal Adjustments
After locating any misaligned vertebrae in your spine, your chiropractor manually applies gentle pressure and repositions the vertebrae. By reducing pressure on nerves, these adjustments can help restore alignment, improve mobility, and relieve pain and stiffness.
