Chiropractic is focused on optimising the health of your body by helping the body to maintain itself through a healthy fully functioning nervous system which controls your whole body!

Your brain is the master controller of your body, it tells the heart when to beat, the lungs when to take in air, the pancreas when to release a certain amount of insulin and the muscles when to contract.

The brain tells every single part of your body what it should be doing via the spinal cord and nerves that travel down through the bones of your spine which protect them.

Messages also travel back up the spinal cord to the brain to give feedback on what is happening in the body. There are 24 moveable spinal bones called vertebrae! Pair of nerves exits the spinal cord from in between each pair of vertebrae to innervate a certain part of the body. It is very important that there is no disruption of this vital nerve flow! Different stresses on the body can interference to the nerve flow. These types of stress include traumatic or physical stress—such as a sports injury, car accident, or lifting something heavy; Chemical stress—the types of food we eat, the water we drink, pollutions, and chemicals in our environment; Emotional stress—this can include a stressful job, grief or difficult times.

Stress in the body can cause the movement of the muscles and bones around the nerves producing interference and therefore decreasing their function. This interference is known as a vertebral subluxation. Chiropractors specialize in the location, analyzing and removing of these vertebral subluxations, allowing the nervous system to flow freely and the body to express optimal health and vitality!
