Chiropractic care can allow the body to help itself function optimally. Chiropractic doesn't treat disease or pain rather it locates and treats interferences to the nervous system that impair the body's ability to be well. The most influential point is obviously the spine but any joints in the body can become an obstacle to normal functioning. What can Chiropractic help in the treatment of? -Injuries - sports, occupational, motor vehicle, falls. -General pain in spine and extremities - headaches/migraines, sciatica, scoliosis, jaw dysfunction -All ages of people can benefit. -Rehabilitation from sports injuries. -Maintenance of healthy spine and support for pregnant women. -Children from birth - complicated labours or otherwise. -Learning and behavioural problems through assessment of Retained Neonatal Reflexes. How does Chiropractic Affect Health? -Affects neurological function -Restores joint function -This helps reduce inflammation involved in activation of pain receptors -This reduces pain by correction of function (not by temporary stimulation or inhibition by drugs or therapies) -This minimises joint disease risk factors for degeneration or arthritis -Improves everyday and athletic performance because the spine influences posture, balance, sense perception and the function of organs
