Be a Doctor of Chiropractic .....Heal the Humanity

 

What is Chiropractic ? Chiropractic is a branch of the healing arts which is based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system (especially the spine, and the nerves extending from the spine to all parts of the body). "Chiropractic" comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos, meaning "effective treatment by hand." Chiropractic stresses the idea that the cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment. It looks to address these diseases not by the use of drugs and chemicals, but by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal area of the body which is functioning improperly. The conditions which doctors of chiropractic address are as varied and as vast as the nervous system itself. All chiropractors use a standard procedure of examination to diagnose a patient's condition and arrive at a course of treatment. Doctors of chiropractic use the same time-honored methods of consultation, case history, physical examination, laboratory analysis and x-ray examination as any other doctor. In addition, they provide a careful chiropractic structural examination, paying particular attention to the spine. The examination of the spine to evaluate structure and function is what makes chiropractic different from other health care procedures. Your spinal column is a series of movable bones which begin at the base of your skull and end in the center of your hips. Thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves extend down the spine from the brain and exit through a series of openings. The nerves leave the spine and form a complicated network which influences every living tissue in your body. Accidents, falls, stress, tension, overexertion, and countless other factors can result in a displacements or derangements of the spinal column, causing irritation to spinal nerve roots. These irritations are often what cause malfunctions in the human body. Chiropractic teaches that reducing or eliminating this irritation to spinal nerves can cause your body to operate more efficiently and more comfortably. Chiropractic also places an emphasis on nutritional and exercise programs, wellness and lifestyle modifications for promoting physical and mental health. While chiropractors make no use of drugs or surgery, Doctors of chiropractic do refer patients for medical care when those interventions are indicated. In fact, chiropractors, medical doctors, physical therapists and other health care professionals now work as partners in occupational health, sports medicine, and a wide variety of other rehabilitation practices. Chiropractic care may also be used to provide symptomatic relief for patients with chronic conditions. According to patient surveys, by treating the neuromusculoskeletal elements of such disorders, chiropractic treatment has been shown to improve the general well-being of the patient. There are many reasons to seek chiropractic care: Back pain Neck pain Headache Whiplash Strains and sprains Repetitive strain injury (RSI) Work and sports injuries Arthritis Limited range of motion in the back, shoulder, neck or limbs General health and well-being ·        How does Chiropractic Work? Your nervous system is so vital that key parts are protected by bone. The skull protects your brain. From the brain, the nerve impulses travel down the spinal cord (the information 'super highway' of your nervous system). Your spinal cord is protected by the 24 moving bones of your spine, called vertebrae. Nerves branch out between the vertebrae and travel to all areas of the body. A person cannot take a step without the brain telling the body to move. ·        Like a circuit breaker, when the vertebrae become misaligned or unable to move properly, it irritates and puts pressure on the nerves. This is called a "vertebral subluxation." The message from the brain is slowed down and the life energy carried by the nerve is unable to reach the organs and tissues at 100% of its potential. A chiropractor aligns the vertebrae through gentle adjustments to the spine, relieving the pressure on the nerves and allowing 100% of the nerve energy to reach the tissues it serves Chiropractic is a regulated health profession, recognized by statute in all Canadian provinces and American states. Chiropractic is a natural art and science established by DD Palmer in 1895. It is a completely drug free form of health care that looks to the spine to maintain the health of the nervous system (and therefore health of the entire body) through proper alignment of the spine and cranial bones. Nerve interference promotes sickness and disease, decreased performance and improper functioning of all body organ systems. Correcting nerve interference is the true purpose of chiropractic. Many people rely on chiropractic care every year to help them live healthy, active lives, many of the back problems can be avoided without medicine and surgery if seen chiropractor on regular basis. Did you know... The word "Chiropractic" has Greek origins, meaning "to do by hand." Your nervous system is the master controlling system of the whole body. Sub-lux-ation means "less light" (sub-luxation also means "less than a dislocation" in medical terms) The first chiropractic patient didn't have back or neck pain...his hearing was restored - wow! On Sept. 18th, 1895 D.D. Palmer delivered the first Chiropractic adjustment and Harvey Lillard could hear once again - he had been deaf for 17 years! This lead D.D. to postulate that a bone out of place in Lillard's neck caused nerve interference and hence chiropractic was born! Your nerve impulses travel at almost 300 miles per hour! (Imagine what happens to a car traveling at that speed if it encounters an obstacle in its path.) Your body doesn't differentiate or discriminate between excessive physical, emotional and chemical stress - it all gets stored as tension! That health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being, not merely the absence of symptoms I am one of millions of people who are satisfied and  rely on chiropractic way of treatment !
