What does a chiropractic adjustment do?
Chiropractic adjustments give your spine a little "nudge" at the right place, right time and the right direction so your body can use that energy to "right" itself. With a schedule of consistent chiropractic visits, a new, healthier spinal pattern emerges.
What causes subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.

HOWTO CREATE YOUR OWN HEALTHCARE REFORM!
We have seen almost everything when it comes to how people seek (or don’t seek) health in their own life. There are people on both sides of this scale from those who do extreme training/sports in an effort to become “Ironmen” to those who do nothing and wonder why they always feel “less than good.” After more than 34 combined years in healthcare, changing our own habits is truly among the most useful advice we can all follow. This is in the category of “tough love”. So here is TRUTH to embrace about reforming the health in America and our own bodies.
TRUTH #1: If you won’t change what you are doing, expect to keep getting what you are getting. If you are overweight, smoke, won’t eat your veggies, won’t exercise and are a frequent flyer through fast-food drive thru’s (and teaching your kids to do the same) be prepared to be sick, have joint pain and high medical costs. You know it. Did you know there is ALWAYS something you can do to help yourself? None of us are perfect, and we can all work towards being better, a little every day. Start small and keep the change!
TRUTH #2: When your body finally breaks down into some sort of pain or symptom, odds are it has been heading that way for months and often years. Pain is not the beginning of a problem, it is the alarm signaling a breakdown! Similarly, if you had a pinhole-sized leak in your oil pan, it is still a problem that should be fixed even though it may take a while to actually destroy your engine!
TRUTH #3: Pharmaceutical companies have been selling us the promise and the hope of the “magic bullet” – the pill that miraculously and without danger cures all our ills and stops all our pain. They are short changing the amazing healing your body is often capable of AND slowly replacing great-grandma’s common sense with empty propaganda. Are pharmaceuticals sometimes necessary? Absolutely! CRISIS IN YOUR HEALTH HAPPENS WHEN TRUTH #1 IS IGNORED, TRUTH #2 IS IGNORED AND YOU DEPEND ON TRUTH #3 TO SAVE YOU!
Most of you know, or at least suspected, all of these things. We have heard dozens of different excuses of why crazy behaviors continue. Think about this… First, studies have shown that it is never too late. Even the elderly can have great improvements in their health and quality of life when they improve their lifestyle behaviors. Second, a 1% improvement made each day, every day results in huge results over the long term. We have thousands of happier, healthier patients who never thought they could get rid of headaches, back pain and many other problems.
