Our Chiropractic Philosophy
Our bodies have an intelligence that extends further than our conscious awareness. This intelligence guides and directs the flow of energy through our body. It controls systems such as breathing, blood flow, organ function, healing, nerve function, hormone control and much, much more.
The flow of information and energy that guides our body can be distorted by imbalances in the various systems of the body. The distortions can cause the creation of disease in the body. The main systems of the body include the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual/energetic. Each system has imbalances show up in various ways. Physical imbalance may include a bone, in a suboptimal position, which prevents normal movement and decreases nerve transmission to organs and muscles. Mental imbalance may include a repeating and persistent thought pattern. Emotional imbalance may include an excess or lack of emotion. Spiritual/energetic imbalances may include the ability or inability to accept new information or a lack in your overall life experience. Any combination, or single expression of these imbalances, can distort the transmission of information from one system of the body to the other, resulting in the creation of disease.
Disease is the way the body expresses that something is wrong. It is your body's "check engine light." As a chiropractor, we trace the disease back to its original cause and treat it from that point. When the cause of the disease is gone, the body has the ability to heal itself and the resulting symptoms disappear. Normal function is restored in the body.
