what is chiropractic?
Chiropractic care views the body as self-sustaining and self-healing, with the brain's control through the spinal cord and nerves playing a crucial role. Unlike conventional medicine, chiropractors prioritize addressing the root cause of health issues rather than merely treating symptoms with drugs. While commonly associated with back and neck pain, chiropractic care extends its capabilities to handle diverse issues such as fibromyalgia, allergies, insomnia, and headaches.
The nervous system, governing muscles, tissues, and organs, can experience disruptions, ranging from minor malfunctions to severe interruptions. Spinal misalignments, known as subluxations, often contribute to nerve interference. Unlike drugs, chiropractic care focuses on correcting subluxations to alleviate nerve pressure and promote overall health.

Adjustments or manipulation as they're sometimes referred to is the minor movement of vertebrae in the spine. The objective of this movement is to realign vertebrae that have moved out of place for a number of reasons ranging from normal daily activity to trauma such as a car accident.

When these vertebrae are out of place, it has an overall systemic effect from muscular to the central nervous system. Without proper alignment and flow of all nerves and systems in the body from the brain, we can't function at our peak.
An adjustment is often a pressure from the chiropractor utilizing the hands or an instrument to move vertebrae back into place. This happens with a quick movement and is often without discomfort. You may hear a noise that sounds like you're cracking your knuckles referred to as joint cavitation. It is the release of nitrogen gases from the joints.
Overall, adjustments are an excellent way to keep the body functioning at its highest level. When the body is in alignment, the body is able to respond and perform as it was designed to.
