Chiropractic Principles

As chiropractors, we often encounter people who don't understand what we do.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation about chiropractic that can make
it challenging for people to understand its basic principles. I know that the public
sees chiropractors as back and neck pain doctors. However, I have witnessed
patients in my office return to health from a wide variety of health problems.
How is this possible? It comes down to four basic principles.

First Principle
First, each of us is born with an innate intelligence that keeps us functioning every minute of our lives. It's that animating force that separates us from a corpse. We don't have to know how a liver works for it to work. It just does what it was designed to do. This innate intelligence is far more superior than our educated minds will ever be.

Second Principle
Second, the nervous system is the master system of the body. It controls and
coordinates everything including the body's ability to adapt and heal.

Third Principle
Third, misalignments of the spine can interfere with the nervous system and
compromise the body's ability to adapt to stress. In chiropractic, we call this
condition a vertebral subluxation complex, often shortened to subluxation.

Fourth Principle
Finally, the job of the chiropractor is to remove these subluxations with an adjustment to the spine. This removes the stress to the nervous system and allows the body to function better.

When this happens, we see miracles occur. We have had patients that were told they were infertile who were able to conceive after correcting the subluxations in their spine. Children with chronic ear infections are able to get off all their antibiotics. Headache and migraine sufferers are able to get off their pain medications. We have also helped people with digestion problems, asthma, psoriasis, allergies, and depression. We don't treat these conditions. We simply remove the stress from the nervous system which allows the body to function better and we watch as the body heals itself.
