How does Chiropractic Work?
Chiropractic is the science of locating offending spinal structures, the art of reducing their impact to the nervous system, and the philosophy of all things natural. Chiropractic works by restoring your own inborn ability to be healthy. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all the cells, tissues, and organs of your body are designed to resist disease and ill health. The chiropractic approach to better health is to locate and help remove interferences to your natural state of being healthy. A common interference to the nervous system is the 24 moving bones of the spinal column. A loss of normal motion or position of these bones can irritate or impair the function of the nervous system. This can disrupt the transmission of controlling nerve impulses. With improved spinal function there is often improved nervous system function. Your chiropractic doctor can help remove interferences that may be impairing normal health. Since the primary focus of your care is improved ner
Spinal manipulation dates back ages ago practiced in one form or another in most cultures. Even Hypocrites said, “Look to the spine as the cause of disease”. Chiropractors do not merely manipulate the spine. What sets chiropractors apart is that they locate misaligned vertebra and realign them with a specific movement called an adjustment. Once the interference (subluxation) is removed, your body has the ability to return to normal function which restores health. By improving nervous system function, your doctor of chiropractic helps your body restore normal health and helps your body fight disease. Chiropractic adjustments are extremely safe with an estimated risk factor in excess of one million to one. Chiropractic is based on the concept that the body has an innate wisdom to regulate and heal itself, that each of us is born to be healthy, and that practicing lifestyles which encourage adequate diet, exercise, rest, and a properly functioning nervous system will maintain health.

Chiropractic works by restoring your body’s innate ability to be healthy. Under optimal conditions with a healthy nervous system, all the cells, tissues, and organs of the body are designed to resist disease. These same cells, tissues and organs create your body’s hormones and cellular physiology. This means any impairment of the nervous system will directly impact proper body physiology and chemistry. The chiropractic approach to better health is to locate and remove interferences (subluxations) to your nervous system. With improved spinal functions, the nervous system functions better and all your physiologic functions improve, for example: blood sugar, blood pressure, and thyroid functions. Dr. Kerew, D.C.’s goal in making adjustments is to provide your body with the best chance at healing itself. A healthy spine and a healthy lifestyle are your keys to optimal health!
Chiropractic is a multifaceted approach that assists the body in attaining wellness when ill or injured. It works because you are a self-healing, self-regulating organism controlled by your brain and nervous system. Improper spinal motion can choke or irritate this nervous system as it relays information to every organ and tissue in your body. Chiropractors call this the Vertebral Subluxation Complex (VSC). Health is often returned after correcting these spinal or structural concerns. Other facets of care commensurate with attaining wellness include proper nutrition, corrective posture, stretching and exercise.
