Chiropractic is natural health care allowing the body to do what it was designed to do, heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery.
The body was designed with an “innate intelligence”. This innate intelligence tells the body how to function. It tells the heart how to beat, how many times, it tells the lungs how to breathe, it tells the stomach how to process the food you eat. If you get hurt such as cutting yourself, the innate intelligence takes over. It sends chemicals to clot the blood, causes tissue to swell to cut off the flow of blood, sends white blood cells to fight infection. All of this happens automatically. This is innate intelligence at work.
The entire body from the top of the head to the pinkie toe is controlled by the nervous system. The nerves are such an important part of the body they are protected by a boney case, called the spinal column. The nerves running through this column connect the body with the brain to communicate the needs of the body. Messages flow from the brain asking, “How are you doing?” The body responds, “We’re doing great!” Or “We could use some help here!”
Nerves branch out of the spinal column and control the body in its proximity. Example, nerves in the upper back region control the heart and lungs, mid-back region nerves control stomach, liver, pancreas, lower-back region nerves control kidneys, potty functions, legs, feet. When the spinal column is out of alignment, it can impede messages where the misalignment occurs. If the messages can’t get through loud and clear, the body can’t function at its optimum.
When the chiropractor adjusts the spine and removes all impingements, the nerves can do their job helping the body to function correctly. This is why chiropractic has helped people with a variety of health conditions like asthma, bronchitis, constipation, bed wetting, stomach aches, acid reflex, numbness, ear infections, learning disorders, eye problems, arthritis, fatigue, pain in joints, etc, etc, etc., all natural health care without the use of drugs. |
