Chiropractic Care
We live our lives through our nervous system. It’s the master control system of the body, making sure everything else functions as it should. The brain sends information out to every part of the body through the nerves that come from your spinal cord When there is interference with the spine, it changes how your body functions.
Why Lack of Pain Doesn’t Indicate Health
Less than 10% of your body’s nerves are the ones that make you feel pain. 90% of them are responsible for doing the things that keep you alive, like making sure your heart is beating. Often, you may not even know that there is a problem! A lack of pain is not an indicator that you don’t need help. That’s why we recommend everyone get checked by a chiropractor.
How Chiropractic Helps You
Dr. G uses chiropractic to make sure your spine and the joints of your body are properly aligned. In doing so, your brain and body can communicate, and your nervous system will work as it was intended to.
There are several techniques Dr. G uses, such as
- Diversified
- Flexion-Distraction
- Drop table
- Impulse
Dr. G holds lectures and classes on various health topics, which are open to our patients to attend. These subjects include detoxification, essential oils and several other health-related topics. If you’re interested in finding out when our next one is, get in touch with the office.
Our intention is never to hurt you. The adjustment is designed to make you feel better, not worse! If an area is particularly tender, however, you may feel it during the adjustment. If your comfort level is ever compromised, please say so and we will make changes to accommodate you.
That’s up to you and Dr. G. If there is a technique you prefer, just let Dr. G know before your adjustment. Otherwise, she will choose the technique she believes is best for you based on her training and clinical experience.
If you prefer a lighter touch, the Impulse adjusting instrument is ideal for you. Dr. G often uses it on pediatric patients, older people with osteoporosis and those who have concerns about the adjustment.
