Chiropractic is a health care discipline that emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. It recognizes that many factors affect health, including exercise, diet, rest, environment and heredity. In addition, Doctor’s of Chiropractic recognize the value and responsibility of working in cooperation with other health care practitioners when it is in the best interest of the patient.

The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. Of primary concern to the doctor of chiropractic are structural and/or functional abnormalities of the vertebral column, known clinically as the “vertebral subluxation complex.” A Doctor of Chiropractic will work to detect and correct subluxations, restoring the flow of nerve impulses throughout the body and improving the function of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system.
