Why Chiropractic?
![]() |
Pain is an alarm that signals something is wrong with
your body. Traditional methods of treatment for muscle and skeletal pain
rid the body of the pain symptoms but not the cause of the pain. This
is similar to turning off a fire alarm because the noise bothers you...the
fire does not go away simply because we cannot hear the alarm. To the
contrary, it can get much worse and do terrible and permanent damage.
Chiropractic does not use drugs to mask the pain signal, it searches for
the cause of the pain and treats it directly. Skilled spinal manipulation
allows spinal joints to expand to decrease nerve irritation which relaxes
muscle spasm and reduces inflammation without the use of medication. Without
chiropractic treatment, misaligned vertebrae and irritated nerves can
lead to degenerative changes, bony arthritis, and disease, as well as
impairing the body's innate ability to heal itself. |
