Your body will be less tense and function better.
Chiropractic is meant to help your brain and nervous system function at its best. Your brain and nervous system control literally everything in your body. Pain, sleep issues, digestion issues, emotional stress and anxiety, brain fog, poor moods, blood sugar swings, immune system issues, and even inflexibility can be all signs of brain and nervous system stress. The chiropractors job is to neutralize that stress on the brain and nervous system which allows you to experience the positive affects of all those issues I just mentioned above i.e. Improved Sleep, digestion, immune system function, moods, blood sugar, mental clarity, stress relief and of course pain relief. Pain is controlled in the brain.
The simple truth is that chiropractic since its inception in 1895 is based on four simple concepts.
1. The body is a self healing mechanism. In other words, your body knows how to heal. If you cut your finger, clean the wound and put a bandage on it the bandage will magically heal the cut. Right? No of course not your cut is going to heal with or without the bandage. Your body can heal itself.
2. Your brain and nervous system controls how everything in your body works. This means healing is controlled by your nervous system as well as the function of every cell, tissue and organ in your body. The master controller, the brain, communicates to every thing in our body through our nerves. What would happen if there is interference with this communication?
3. Interference with the brains communication with the rest of the body will compromise your health. It is impossible for your body to function at 100% if there is interference between the brain and the rest of the body. Every nerve in our body travels through the spine at some level. If the spine is out of normal position and not moving correctly it can interfere with these communication signals. We call this a subluxation.
4. Removing the interference restores the bodies functions by normalizing the brains communication with the rest of the body. That is what we do as chiropractors. We are the only profession trained in the detection and correction of subluxations. There are other professions that may manipulate the joints but mobilizing the joints is not the same as adjusting to correct the interference created by the subluxation.
Chiropractic has many techniques to detect and correct subluxations and thereby getting rid of pain and restoring function
Therefore, The benefits can be far reaching. Some of the latest research shows how it boosts the immune system, is best for musculoskeletal problems vs. MD or PT. Among many other verified issues.

Chiropractic is natural and preventative actions are addressed to help you stay healthy. Our focus is healthcare vs sick care.
A chiropractor can help you to improve your posture (if it is not the ideal posture for you), help reduce pain (if you are experiencing pain or discomfort), and can help improve flexibility and movement of the neck and back (and other joints). It really depends on whether you have a specific problem you'd like addressed or if you're just interested in wellness.
There are many different benefits depending on what types of treatment are being performed. Chiropractors perform many types of treatment from vertebral and joint manipulation, muscle work such as stretching, massage, trigger point therapy, balancing and strengthening. They also perform services such as acupuncture and nutritional therapy. But the single most
beneficial treatment is designed to reduce nervous system interference through the reduction of spinal misalignment. The nervous system controls all functions in the body and reducing irritations to that system helps the body to function at its best. I have treated patients with symptoms from headaches to constipation. Chiropractic works. In my clinic, we have chiropractors, physical therapists and medical doctors working together as a team to get the best results possible without surgery.
I hope this answers your question.
Take care and be well,
