1. Your body is a self-healing mechanism. Cut your finger - it heals. Cut the finger of a corpse - it does not. Therefore .............. Life heals ....... Through the living, natural wisdom in your body.

A slightly expanded explanation.

Research has revealed that the nervous system controls well-being. The nervous system reads what is going on in the environment and then acts to adapt the whole body to its best survival response. This environment consists of what is around you, and inside of you.

If the nervous system overloads due to stress, junk food, chemicals, sugar, physical injuries, etc., it can only respond to its best ability. And if this overloading continues, it will cause an unbalanced neurological pattern to develop. This creates a continual feedback loop of improper nerve messages to and from the affected area of the body.

These improper nerve messages will cause the body's systems to perform improperly. This malfunction will continually worsen. As the damage is slowly becoming larger and larger, you will eventually accumulate signs and symptoms that something is wrong. Unfortunately, it can take months or years for signs that internal breakdown is occurring.

Medical response is to render treatment to remove the signs and symptoms. In other words, they deal with the unpleasant signals that the body is finally giving to you to indicate it's terrible state of function.

But, the modern Chiropractic approach is to focus on restoring normal neurological function. In other words, fixing the operating system of the body.

This is not a new concept, but after more than 100 years, science has finally caught up with Chiropractic and can prove that Chiropractic adjustments alter brain activity, restore neural integrity, and helps to restore normal healthy responses in the systems of the body.

Responding to life's stressors is the nervous system's job, and the effectiveness of this neurological function can actually be measured. How effecitvely your nerve system responds to life's stresses is directly influenced by any physical stress placed on it by your spinal position and movement. When this position and movement is abnormal, it is called a subluxation.

Today, neural scientists understand that inappropriate responses to stressors are the cause of illness and disease. It is no longer the concept of germs and / or bad parts, but rather a breakdown in the body's systems that lead to illness, including the immune system, which is controlled by the nervous system.

The Chiropractic adjustment stimulates a neurological response that registers within the central nervous system, which in turn allows the body to alter its abnormal neurological patterns. (Like rebooting your computer) When retraining is achieved through repetition, these new neural patterns can be seen and measured with todays sophisticated technology.

Chiropractic can truly alter old behaviours and dis-ease processes, and create new and healthy normal functions within the body.

This makes chiropractic unique, AND, the exact opposite of medicine. You don't have to be sick, diseased, or broken, to enjoy the benefits of chiropractic care. You can use it under the guidance of a practitioner who knows how to apply it for wellness purposes.

This means you, your children, your family and loved ones can use chiropractic as an additional tool to create health and well-being. Will it replace exercise, stretching, eating right and all those other things that are good for us?

No. But you will never experience the full benefit of those things if your spine is subluxated and your nerve signals are distorted. You will simply never work right if your operating system has malfunctioned.
