How Does Chiropractic Work? Chiropractic works because you are a
self-healing, self-regulating organism controlled by your
nervous system. Millions of instructions flow from your brain,
down the spinal cord and out to every organ and tissue. Signals
sent back to the brain confirm if you body is working right.
Improper motion or position of the moving bones of the spine
called a subluxation can interfere with this vital exchange by
irritating nerves and compromising the function of affected
organs and tissues. Specific spinal adjustments can help improve
mind/body communications. Health often returns with improved
nervous system control of the body. How Do You Get Subluxations?
There are three basic causes of subluxations. Physical causes
could include slips and falls, accidents, repetitive motions and
improper lifting. Emotions such as grief, anger and fear can
cause subluxations. Chemical causes could include alcohol,
drugs, pollution and poor diet. Are Chiropractic Adjustments
