Description

Chiropractic, although many times misunderstood, is about helping people live healthier, fuller lives. While typically thought of as 'bone doctors', chiropractors actually focus on the nervous system and painlessly, manually adjust the vertebral column in order to effect the nervous system. According to 'Gray's Anatomy', the nervous system is the master system in the body and controls and coordinates all other systems such as respiratory, digestive, muscular, immune and so forth. The nervous system includes the brain, spinal cord, the spinal nerves that exit the vertebral column through openings on the sides of each vertebra, and all the peripheral nerves that branch off to serve organs, tissues, blood vessels, muscles etc. Information from the environment, both external and internal, goes through the spine to get to the brain. In the same manner, information and decisions made in the brain go through the spine to effect certain outcomes. It is a two-way flow of information.
