Chiropractic was founded in 1895 and has made significant strides in advancing healthcare over the past century. Chiropractors look at the function of the nervous system, which is the master controller of our body. They specialize in the detection and correction of misalignments in the spine in order to remove stress from the nervous system. Taking stress off of the nerves allows the body to function and heal optimally.
Chiropractic centers around the philosophy that the body is a self-healing organism. Provided there is no interference, the body can maintain health and vitality throughout a lifetime.
Instead of treating the symptoms of a disease, chiropractors look for the cause of the condition, so as not to let the underlying problem foster and expand. Chiropractic not only addresses neck pain, low back pain, and headaches, but a variety of other health conditions as well.
