When a patient seeks chiropractic health care and we accept a patient for such care, it is essential for both to be working towards the same objective.
Chiropractic has only one goal. It is important that each patient understand both the objective and the method that will be used to attain it. This will prevent any confusion and disappointment.
Adjustment: An adjustment is the specific application of force to facilitate the body’s correction of vertebral subluxation. Our chiropractic method of correction is by specific adjustments of the spine.
Health: A state of optimal physical, mental and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmities (aka symptoms).
Vertebral Subluxation: A misalignment of one or more of the 24 vertebra in the spinal column which causes alteration of nerve function and interference to the transmission of mental impulses, resulting in a lessening of the body’s innate ability to express it’s maximum health potential.
We do no offer to diagnose or treat any disease or condition other than vertebral subluxation. However, if during the course of a chiropractic spinal examination, we encounter a non-chiropractic or unusual finding, we will recommend that you seek the services of a health care provider who specialized in that area.
Regardless of what the disease is called, we do not offer to treat it. Nor do we offer advice regarding treatment prescribed by others. OUR PRACTICE OBJECTIVE is to eliminate a major interference to the expression of the body’s innate wisdom. Our method is specific adjusting to correct vertebral subluxations.
