What Does a Chiropractor Do?

Many of potential patients and first-time patients wonder just what does a chiropractor do? The basic concepts of chiropractic are innate intelligence which refers to the body being a self- regulator.  This is the guiding force in the human body that works to sustain health.  The body seeks to maintain homeostasis. What is homeostasis you say?  This is a state of the body that balances all systems needed for the body to function correctly home.  Homeostasis exists in all living things.  When the body is injured or infected the body automatically repairs itself or attacks the existing infection.  The nervous system is very important in repairing the body.

How does homeostasis apply to chiropractic? A chiropractor needs to identify and remove the barriers of nerve function balance. When the nervous system is in balance, homeostasis occurs.  The nervous system primarily regulates body functions.  The basics of chiropractic care believes that vertebrae misalignment results in nerve and organ dysfunction. These misalignments occur due to the trauma, postural stress, congenital abnormalities, disc degeneration, and the toxic effects of infection.  Chiropractic adjustment and alternative medicines relieves nerve irritation.

So why choose chiropractic? You may choose to use integrative health care because of it is herbal medicine, acupuncture, massage, biofeedback, yoga, meditation and stress reduction techniques.  All of these offer a broad approach to healing.
