Approximately
95% of all back pain is mechanical, and Chiropractors offer a
mechanical solution to a mechanical problem. A Chiropractic adjustment
is a hands on technique used to restore proper joint mechanics and
correct the spinal subluxation. This helps to decrease pain and
increase the passive motion of the joint. Chiropractic treatment, and
in particular spinal adjustments, have been the subject of government
reports and multi-disciplinary studies conducted over many years. The
studies have demonstrated Chiropractic care to be a highly effective
treatment for spinal conditions including general pain, loss of
mobility, headaches and other related symptoms. Chiropractic care also
focuses on improving overall wellness. Irritated or subluxated
vertebral joints may obstruct the normal neural flow of information
between the brain and the body. Nerves exit the brain, travel down the
spinal cord and exit the spinal cord near spinal joints. Spinal nerves
travel to every part of the body including muscles and organs.
This
relationship between the spinal joints and the nerves may cause
symptoms far removed from the spine. Thus removing spinal joint
subluxations and the neural interference that subluxations cause can
improve your general sense of well being, increase spinal joint
mobility and decrease joint pain. As a result most patients feel better
with Chiropractic care.
