Chiropractic Care
Explaining chiropractic care to a new patient doesn’t have to be complicated. We start by explaining that the nervous system is made up of the brain, the spinal cord, and the nerves. Your brain sends signals down the spinal cord to the nerves, which control every function in the body.
The spine houses the spinal cord, so a misalignment may interfere with the brain’s ability to send healthy signals, causing a loss of function. These misalignments are called subluxations; our job is to find them and correct them with chiropractic care.
NEW PATIENTS
The 3 Ts
Most people don’t realize there are three Ts that cause subluxations—thoughts, toxins, and traumas. Stress is one of the most common causes of subluxation, poor posture is an example of that. Toxins are the things we’re exposed to, and things we eat. Traumas are what most people think of, such as lifting accidents, falls, and other injuries.
Did you know only 10% of your nervous system carries pain signals? The other 90% is dedicated to function, but there’s no signal to tell you there’s a problem until it begins to fail. Our job is to find out how healthy your spinal alignment is, and keep up on the maintenance to promote proper function in your body.
Tools and Techniques
Our primary adjusting style is Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP), which focuses on spinal correction with gentle adjustments. We use drop tables to make the adjustment easier and lighter on the patient, as well as instrument adjusting, especially for children and pregnant women. CBP looks at your problem from a structural standpoint and corrects it using adjustments and rehabilitation exercises.
We have several adjunct therapies we may use to support your chiropractic care. These include
- Spinal decompression
- Intersegmental traction
- Laser therapy
- Electrical stimulation
- Rehabilitation exercises
- Nutrition supplements
