WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
A philosophy, science, and art! Chiropractic deals with the relationship between the bones of the vertebral column and the nerve system. It is based upon the premise that the body is a self-healing, self-regulating organism. The objective is the detection and correction(reduction) of vertebral subluxation to allow the Innate Intelligence of the body to express itself more fully. . . or simply, to enable your body to work at its highest potential!
D.D Palmer, Founder of Chiropractic - 1895: "Chiropractic is a philosophy, science and art of things natural: a system of adjusting the segments of the spinal column by hand only, for the correction of the cause of dis-ease."
Dorland's dictionary - 1927 "A system of adjustment consisting of palpation of the spinal column to ascertain vertebral subluxations followed by the adjustment of them by hand, in order to relieve pressure upon nerves at the intervertebral foramina, so that the nerve force may flow freely from the brain to the rest of the body."
Federation of Straight Chiropractic Organizations - 1976 "Straight chiropractic is a natural philosophy based upon recognition of the inherent ability of living organisms to repair and heal themselves under perfect direction of the Innate Intelligence of Life in accordance with Universal Law, and the art and science of properly locating, analyzing and adjusting vertebral subluxation for the restoration and maintenance of neural integrity, in accordance with the philosophy."
Our objective - the correction of vertebral subluxations - is what we do. Our philosophy explains why we do what we do. The science is the accumulated facts supporting what we do. The art is how we do it. Each of these aspects of chiropractic is important.
Chiropractic is about life, its about being a better expression of life. Our lives and bodies work and function better on all levels without vertebral subluxations!

WHAT IS THE "ELECTIVE FEE SYSTEM '?
The Elective Fee System is based upon the premise that everyone needs chiropractic care. This is a practical system that allows everyone to receive regular chiropractic care . . . . . continue?
WHAT IS A VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION?
A vertebral subluxation is a misalignment of one or more bones(vertebrae) of the spine, which interferes with the function of the nerve system and spinal cord. The purpose of these bones is to house and protect the vital and delicate nerves that supply the life-giving energy to every part of the body. Due to the close proximity and the nature of bone and nerves, when the vertebrae misalign or subluxate, they become the greatest insult to the very nerves and spinal cord they are supposed to protect. When this interference occurs, vital messages, which are transmitted over the nerves become garbled, modified, or diminished. As a result , the body's innate ability to adapt properly to its environment becomes inadequate. The body begins to work at less than its fullest potential. A body functioning at less than its fullest potential has lost, among other things, some if its health. - to Causes of Subluxation?
What is Health?
Health is defined as an optimum state of physical, social, and emotional well being and not just the absence of symptoms. Health exists when every part of your brain can communicate, uninterrupted, with the rest of your body and tell it what to do and when to do it. Maintenance of good health and a high quality of life depends upon the body's natural ability to continually adapt to changes in its environment. Responsible for this is natures most remarkable and complicated network - the nerve system. - to Health
How does your body work?
The brain is the control center of the entire body. From the brain extends the spinal cord which carries life giving and life sustaining messages out to every cell, gland, muscle, tissue in the body. Every cell in your body uses the nerve system to communicate with your brain and vice-versa like telephone wires. continue to Your Amazing Body!
Will Chiropractic Improve My Life and Health?
Absolutely!! What function, organ, tissue or cell of your body is not connected directly or indirectly to your nerves? none. What structure protects the delicate spinal cord and spinal nerves? The spinal column. What occurs if just even one of these bones is just slightly out of position (vertebral subluxation)? interference with the transmission of nerve impulses! Will I feel these subluxations? Maybe. Most of the time - NO!
Getting your spine checked a minimum of once a week ,(for life), will keep your nerve system as clear of interference as possible. This will enable you to be the best that you can be.! The chiropractic adjustment corrects the subluxation(s) allowing nerve impulses to be transmitted freely once again to every cell in your body. So, am I better off with or without nerve interference? Without, of course!
Your body's ability to adapt to its environment will also be improved . This translates into increased overall body performance as well as heightened resistance to diseases and improved ability for the body to maintain, heal, repair itself and in short....function better.
Also, let's not leave out human potential and performance!
But I feel Fine!
Why should I go to the chiropractor when you feel fine? Unlike going to other health care practitioners, seeing a chiropractor has nothing to do with being sick or even how you feel. Vertebral subluxations decrease your full expression of life and contribute to a lack of health in the body. There may be no signs or symptoms to tell you that something is amiss! That is why it makes sense to see your chiropractor weekly for life. He or she is the only one trained to find nerve interference caused by vertebral subluxation and remove it before any devastating effects occur. In doing this you can begin to experience a fuller expression of health as well as greater potential for every activity of life.
But what about my symptoms?
