Natural health can only occur when the nervous system is functioning normally.
Unfortunately for many people, the nervous system isn't always functioning at 100 percent. This could be because somewhere
between the brain and the rest of the body there is something interfering with the communication process. When this happens,
the message isn't sent properly causing our bodies to function abnormally. Imagine talking on a telephone with excessive static.
It is very difficult to get the correct message across because, somewhere in the communication process, the signal is interfered
with.
|
| This same communication block can happen inside our bodies. The 24 moveable bones that surround and protect our spinal cord
can sometimes become slightly misaligned. When these misalignments occur, the bones can pinch those nerves that travel through.
In other instances, the misaligned bones can stretch those nerves, causing an entirely different set of problems. Imagine a
garden hose with water flowing out of the end. If you step on the hose to pinch it closed, the water stops flowing. This is an
extremely simplified way to illustrate what happens when the bones misalign in our spine. But just like the hose that can't
spray it's water correctly, the nerves along the spine can't communicate that message that the brain is trying to send to the
body. Chiropractors call these vertebral misalignments "Subluxations".
|
| Your chiropractor checks for these subluxations in many ways. In our office we utilize computer spinal imaging called
Surface EMG and Thermography, examination and spinal x-rays (when needed). These allow us to have a "picture" of your spine and
nervous system and were problems may exist.

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to
condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16,17
