To promote the most effective application of chiropractic procedures and the strongest possible doctor-patient relationship, we state the following to facilitate the goal of optimum health through chiropractic.
To that end, we ask that you acknowledge the following points regarding services we provide:
- Chiropractic is a specific, separate, and distinct practice authorized by law to address spinal health.
- Chiropractic seeks to restore normal nerve functioning through the adjustment of spinal subluxations to maximize the inherent healing power of the body. Subluxations are deviations from normal spinal structures that interfere with normal nerve processes.
- The chiropractic adjustment process, as defined in the law of this jurisdiction, involves the application of a specific directional thrust to a region(s) of the spine with the specific intent of repositioning misaligned spinal segments. This is a safe, effective procedure applied over one
million times each day by doctors of chiropractic in the united states alone.
- Chiropractic does not seek to replace or compete with other specific health care professionals. They retain responsibility for care and management of medical conditions. We do not offer advice regarding treatment prescribed by others.
- Your compliance with the doctor’s recommendations is essential to achieving the maximum health benefits.
- We invite you to speak frankly to the doctor on any matter related to your care at this facility, its nature, duration, or cost, what we work to maintain as a supporting, open environment.
