BENEFITS OF CHIROPRACTIC & MASSAGE
Chiropractic is a hands-on, holistic, alternative health care approach to better health and increases quality of life through manipulation of spine and extremities, diet, exercise. We are considered to be the neuromusculoskeletal (nerve-muscle-skeleton) professionals. Chiropractic is a lifestyle of health care.
Chiropractic can help you by working with you and your other health care professionals (M.D., and D.O.) by maintaining your spine in proper alignment. Every organ in the body is under neurological (nerve) control, so doesn't it make sense that if nerve impulses do not get to the organ its function will be compromised? Not all nerve impulses have a stimulatory effect on organs, some impulses inhibit the organs they influence. For example, the Vagus Nerve has an inhibitory effect on the heart causing the heart to slow its rate when it receives these signals. The same Vagus Nerve, however, on the stomach and digestive tract stimulates these organs into increasing their activity. Through manipulation of the spine, the Chiropractor helps place the spine in proper alignment to prevent a malfunction of nerve impulses to other organs and tissues.
