What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery.The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the restoration and preservation of health.
In addition, Doctors of Chiropractic recognize the value and responsibility of working in cooperation with other health care practitioners when in the best interest of the patient.
"The Philosophy of Chiropractic encompasses the following core premises: Naturalism, Holism, Vitalism and Humanism. (study below) What this means to the community (to you) is the access to and the availability of a highly educated and scientifically trained natural healing profession, ready to offer alternative health care advice and treatment for drug-less pain management and true healthcare options, not just disease management."
