Principles of Chiropractic Care

Principles of chiropractic

The basic principle of chiropractic, in a nutshell, is the power that made the body heals the body. To explain further, there is a power within our body that is gifted to us by our creator. This power, this universal intelligence instructs every process of life within our body. 

This power goes from above, down, inside, out.  It is expressed from the brain down the spinal cord, then to the periphery of the body. If you have a subluxation; which is a misalignment of a vertebra placing pressure on a nerve, that power will be diminished to the tissue or organ that it was intended. This diminished communication of power from the central nervous system to the rest of the body will inhibit those tissues or organs from functioning at their greatest potential and over time will cause dis-ease/ dysfunction of that tissue or organ. 

The chiropractic adjustment delivered with the intention of removing that interference is the only way to remove the subluxation and regain proper function. This is why I continue to get adjusted to this day. Later I will talk more about diet, exercise and the positive effects they have on health.
