What is Chiropractic Care?

"Get knowledge of the spine, for this is the requisite for many diseases."                                                                                                                                   Hippocrates, 460-377BC

 

The human body is one of the most amazing and sophisticated organisms in the world.  Our bodies have an innate intelligence that enables us to adapt to our environment to survive.

 

Chiropractic is a conservative form of healthcare, which is:

 

  • drug-free

  • safe

  • effective

  • natural

  • economical

 

Its focus is to optimise the health of the central nervous system by redressing strain, damage or distortion of the spinal column, which can cause nerve interference.

 

The central nervous system is made up of the brain and spinal cord from which millions of nerves branch off throughout the whole body.  For further information on the central nervous system, please see this BBC link.

 

Nerve interference can cause

distortion of communication between the brain to the rest of the body.

 

Nerve interference disrupts processes within the body and promotes sickness and dis-ease; it robs us of our vitality and weakens our immune system.

 

Chiropractic adjustments aim to correct nerve interference by improving nerve supply, thus maximising the innate healing potential of the body.  For further information, please watch this great video.

 

Chiropractic is an efficient,

economical, safe and natural way to treat both acute and chronic conditions, helping you to be yourself again.
