How Chiropractic Works
at Forest Chiropractic Wellness Centre
Central to understanding the necessity of chiropractic is understanding that healthy spinal bones and tissues and healthy spinal nerve flow depend on normal spinal motion and alignment. Decreases in spinal motion and abnormal alignment and posture result in spinal bone and soft tissue decay and unhealthy spinal nerve flow. The scientific term for this degenerative spine and nervous system condition is Vertebral Subluxation Complex.
Vertebral Subluxation Complex
Vertebral Subluxation Degeneration or Osteoarthritis can cause a great deal of pain, weakness, and/or fatigue. More importantly, this decay can be causing damage WITHOUT symptoms, just like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.
The detrimental neurological changes that occur with Vertebral Subluxation Complex, and the one that is most damaging in terms of overall health, is the toxic flow of stress nerve messages (called nociception) and the deficient flow of essential positive nerve messages (called proprioception) between the body and brain. Scientific evidence indicates that this altered nerve flow affects not only local spinal tissues but brain function in regions that regulate pain, stress and immunity, thinking, learning, concentration, emotions, organ function, sleep, digestion, overall hormonal and organ function regulation, and neuromuscular coordination, balance, strength and agility.
