The Science
Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that the nervous system, mainly your brain and spinal cord, controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. Your body is much like the Internet: your brain is your computer, your spinal cord is the information highway, your spinal vertebrae which house nerves, arteries and veins are the links to your organs, such as the heart, lungs, intestines, and reproductive organs. The disruption of the function of these tissues or organs and the nerve control is called Vertebral Subluxation Complex or VSC. Chiropractic is the science of finding these areas of spinal malfunction, the art of correcting them and the philosophy of all things natural as we have been created.
The Art
Our doctors master the adjusting “art” of chiropractic, which includes a comprehensive evaluation, a review of health history, and arrive at a clear diagnosis and a recommended specific treatment plan customized for each patient. This includes specific spinal adjustments. Adjustment describes many hundreds of ways and techniques of directed and controlled pressure to restore spinal segments to a more normal position, allowing the nervous system to be restored to its properly functioning state. Chiropractic is truly an art.
The Philosophy
Chiropractic philosophy recognized that the power that created the body can heal the body – as long as there is no interference. The doctor does not heal you; he is a co-facilitator with you for your body to be put in the correct environment to heal itself. The main purpose of the chiropractor is to reduce interference to your inborn, innate healing ability. Our mission is to enhance the lives of our patients by improving their overall health. We want to educate them and empower them to take responsibility in achieving optimal wellness.
What to expect at your first appointment:
Upon entering the office, we have comprehensive paperwork for you to fill out. The paperwork provides us with information about yourself and your condition. You can download our paperwork, fill it out, and bring it to the office for your first visit.
Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a consultation with the doctor to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, as well as potential treatment options.
In order to determine what your actual problem is, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition. Next, a number of specialized tests will be performed to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent.
Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you.
Prior to leaving, patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches.
You will be given a convenient appointment time for your follow-up visit. Generally speaking, patients are seen within 1-2 days and are provided with a complete review of findings. Treatment options for your condition will also be discussed during this time.
