Chiropractic Tip of the Month: Chiropractic Basics
D.D. and B.J. Palmer, father and son, founded and built the modern chiropractic profession. The basic principle of chiropractic is an understanding of vertebral subluxation (the misalignment of vertebrae), now often called nerve interference. This is the cause of many ills affecting the body.
Chiropractors use physical examination, x-rays and other diagnostic tools such as MRIs and CAT scans, to identify the problem and then correct it by an adjustment. Chiropractors blend the drugless, non-surgical art of hands-on therapy with the science and technology of modern medicine and physical rehabilitation. It is a branch of health care that concentrates on naturally balancing and optimizing the function of the body in order to promote and maintain health. The body’s innate intelligence is assisted by chiropractic.
Children, young adults, the middle-aged and seniors can all benefit from chiropractic, which deserves its respected place in health care because it concentrates on causes rather than masking symptoms.
“Chiropractors adjust subluxations, relieving pressure from the nerves so that they can perform their functions in a normal manner. Innate intelligence can and will do the rest.”
B.J. Palmer, D.C.
