Every single cell, tissue, organ and muscle in your body receives either a direct nerve supply or is under control of the central nerve system via chemical messengers produced by glands and other cells.
In short, every function within the body is regulated through the nerve system – sleep, energy, digestion, healing and repair, strength, stamina, reproduction, immune system function, concentration, focus, cognition, and millions more.
What would happen if we interfere with this brain-body connection?
The central nerve system is so important that nature built armour around it – your skull and spinal column. However, even with this inborn protection, your nerve system can experience interference, injury or disturbance through the physical, chemical or mental stresses of everyday life. We call this interference to your nerve system a spinal misalignment or vertebral subluxation.
The role of a chiropractor is to address this interference in all people. Not just because someone has a symptom or condition, but also because the health of the spine & nerve system is a requirement for an optimal life.
If symptoms or conditions do exist this is a sign that your body is reaching the outer limits of its ability to adapt. In essence it’s a warning sign. This indicates something within our physiology needs to change to bring the body back to within its normal healthy limits. By addressing interference to your spine & nerve system, correcting subluxations and maximising the brain-body connection your body will simply have a greater capacity to heal and repair. As a result we may see significant changes in those unwanted pains & symptoms so whether its neck pain, headaches, lower back pain or digestive issues, if we remove the interference to your spine and nerve system your body will heal and repair at a greater rate.
This applies to infants, children, pregnant mums, athletes and seniors – in short, anyone who is pursuing an extraordinary life needs to maintain the integrity of the brain-body connection.
Chiropractic is the only profession that specifically addresses the nerve system and its function as its primary goal.
HOW DO I KNOW IF I NEED CHIROPRACTIC CARE?
The truth is you won't know – that is, unless you have had objective hands on testing to measure the function of your spine and nerve system. This is exactly why we don't guess, we test! As part of our testing procedures if you require x-rays we have a digital facility on site. Once we have determined the health of your spine and nerve system, we can give you and your family the best recommendations for your chiropractic care.
