Chiropractic
care helps
your body
achieve
maximum
wellness by
ensuring
that all of
its
components
are
functioning
normally.
This
is
achieved
by
removing
spinal
subluxations
that
irritate
the
nervous
system,
suggesting
dietary
changes
to
avoid
common
problem
foods,
testing
for
allergies
that
may
be
stressing
the
nervous
system
and
suggesting
changes
to
the
home
to
help
reduce
exposure
to
toxic
chemicals.

ADHD
|
ADHD
is
relatively
common
and
emerges
during
early
years.
Common
signs
are
inattention,
hyperactivity,
impulsive
behavior,
and
difficulty
concentrating. |
|
Allergies
|
The
immune
and
respiratory
systems
depend
on
normal
communication
from
the
brain
and
spinal
cord
to
coordinate
their
proper
functioning.
Misalignment
can
cause
an
imbalance
in
your
nervous
system
function. |
|
Asthma
|
Spinal
adjustments
relieve
muscle
soreness
and
discomfort
that
develop
during
asthmatic
flare-ups,
and
can
reduce
the
frequency
and
severity
of
attacks. |
Back
Pain-
Lower
|
Low
back
pain
affects
more
than
half
the
adult
population
each
year.
Injury
and
pain
results
because
it
is
unsupported,
unlike
the
thoracic
spine,
which
is
supported
and
stabilized
by
the
rib
cage. |
Back
Pain-
Upper/Neck
|
Your
neck
and
head
are
much
like
a
bowling
ball
held
on
top
of a
stick
by
small,
thin,
elastic
bands.
It
doesn’t
take
much
force
to
disrupt
that
delicate
balance.
Nerves
running
to
the
arms,
neck
and
upper
back
can
be
easily
pinched,
causing
numbness,
tingling,
cold,
aching,
and
“pins
and
needles.” |
|
Bedwetting
|
Bed-wetting
may
be a
sign
that
stress
or
disease
is
causing
a
problem.
Chiropractic
can
remove
irritations
that
affect
nerves
that
control
bladder
function. |
Carpal
Tunnel
|
CTS
is
caused
by
pressure
on
the
median
nerve
just
above
the
wrist
and
injuries
can
result
from
activities
like
typing,
chopping,
hammering,
or
pushing. |
Ear
Infections
|
Caused
by
improper
drainage
of
the
lymph
system
in
the
neck,
or
the
muscle
that
is
supposed
to
keep
bacteria
or
viruses
from
entering
the
eustacean
tubes. |
|
Fibromyalgia
|
This
chronic
disorder
can
include
muscle
pain,
fatigue,
and
multiple
tender
points,
sleep
disturbances,
morning
stiffness,
headaches,
R.L.S.,
I.B.S.,
etc. |
|
Headaches
|
A
2001
Duke
University
report
found
that
"spinal
manipulation
resulted
in
almost
immediate
improvement
for
headaches
that
originate
in
the
neck
. .
."
|
|
Pinched
Nerve
|
Nerves
become
irritated
and
inflamed
when
the
bones,
joints
or
muscles
of
the
spine
are
not
in
their
proper
position.
This
condition
is
called
a
“subluxation." |
|
PMS
|
PMS
is
characterized
by
mood
swings,
swollen
abdomen,
headaches,
back
pain,
food
cravings,
fatigue,
irritability
or
depression
preceding
the
monthly
period. |
|
Pregnancy
|
As
baby
grows
the
weight
causes
the
curvature
of
the
lower
back
to
increase,
placing
extra
stress
on
the
fragile
facet
joints
on
the
back
side
of
the
spine. |
|
Sciatica
|
Pain
in
the
pelvis,
hip,
buttocks
and
leg
can
be
relieved
through
a
combination
of
stretches,
deep
tissue
massage
of
the
piriformis
muscle
and
chiropractic
care. |
|
Scoliosis
|
Scoliosis
is a
sideways
curve
of
the
spine
that
causes
stiffness
and
pain.
Untreated
it
can
lead
to
severe
back
pain,
deformity,
and
difficulty
breathing. |
|
Slipped
Disc
|
Discs
don't
actually
“slip”
but
may
herniate
or
bulge
out
from
between
the
bones.
A
herniation
is a
displaced
fragment
of
the
center
part
or
nucleus
of
the
disc
that
is
pushed
through
a
tear
in
the
outer
layer
or
annulus
of
the
disc. |
|
Stress
|
Stress
is
pressure
on
your
mind
or
body
and
results
in
increases
blood
pressure,
heart
rate,
respiration,
metabolism,
and
blood
flow
to
your
muscles. |
|
Whiplash
|
Whiplash
is
an
extremely
rapid
extension
and
flexion
that
causes
injuries
to
the
muscles,
ligaments
and
tendons. |
