Description
Science: Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body. Your nervous system consists of your brain, spinal cord, and millions of nerves. While your brain is protected by the skull, your spinal cord is protected by the 24 moveable bones of your spine called vertebrae. Since these vertebrae were designed by the body to allow motion, they are more vulnerable to injury than the rigid skull. Therefore, we see that many everyday activities can cause these spinal bones to lose their normal position or motion. This can result in nervous system dysfunction and ultimately, ill health. When a vertebra loses its normal position it can rub, choke, or pinch a nearby nerve. We call this condition a Vertebral Subluxation (sub-lux-a-shun) Complex (VSC). This may occur through what are known as the three T's. The first being thoughts such as grief and stress via the the subconscious tightening of muscles in the upper back and neck. The second is via toxins such as Alcohol, prescribed and non prescribed drugs, and caffeine. The third, and most likely culprit, is through trauma which can be as minor as lifting something wrong or sleeping wrong to as major as an automobile accident.
