"Look to the nervous system as the key to maximum health."

OUR MISSION:

We are committed to creating lifelong health and vitality for individuals and families through every stage of life by removing interference to the central nervous system allowing full expression of life.

Your Central Nerve System (CNS) is Your Genetic Intelligence Communication Network

The CNS – comprised of the brain, brain stem and spinal cord – is so vital to your health and well being that it’s protected by the hardest substances in our entire body: the skull and the spine.

Why? This “genetic intelligence communication network” controls and coordinates the function of every cell, tissue, and organ in your body. This system is what enables you to HEAL from injuries, chronic ailments, disease, trauma, etc. The CNS allows you to respond and adapt to your world. It’s what enables you, as a human, to THRIVE…not just survive.

If there is “interference” (also known as a subluxation) to your body’s CNS it could affect a number of areas crucial to overall health and happiness (i.e. heart, circulation, immunity, digestion, elimination, breathing, energy levels, balance, coordination).

A subluxation occurs when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae)  slightly misalign and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves…ultimately blocking your body’s innate ability to heal itself.

What causes subluxation?

  1. PHYSICAL- Structural strain and trauma caused by both injury and accidents and common life activities such as repetitive motion, pregnancy, sleeping positions, and occupational posture or lifting. This also includes structurally altering events during childhood (falling off a swing or bike, carrying heavy backpacks, getting hit in the head with a baseball, etc.). The first trauma we experience in life often occurs the day we are born!  
  2. CHEMICAL – Toxins and chemicals can be found almost everywhere today…in the environment, processed food, furniture, building materials, beauty products, and drugs. With toxins and chemicals in air pollution, weed killer, vaccines, sleeping pills, Ritalin, NSAIDs, etc., our bodies are under continuous assault.  We also have chemicals that occur naturally in our body (ie, insulin, adrenalin, histamines). These can create health issues when they are under- or over-produced in response to outside factors (ie, an allergic reaction to pollen).
  3. EMOTIONAL – Our mental state plays a big part in our physical health. Stress directly effects muscle tension. And, of course, healthy spinal muscles are needed for proper spinal alignment. Stress-induced subluxation can occur from many life events including marriage, moving, and money management. When our emotions are overwhelmed by stress, depression, fear, and anxiety, it can physically alter the movement and alignment of our spine. 

Subluxation = CNS Interference = Loss of Health

The bottom line: If CNS function is interfered with, there will be a loss of HEALTH!

 For you to be healthy, your CNS must communicate with every cell, tissue and organ in your body at 100 percent… at all times…without any interference…throughout your lifetime.

Chiropractic = Healing = Whole Health

Your body is and always has been self-healing and self-regulating. Think about when you get a cut on your finger. Somehow it always miraculously heals itself. Your body knows to form a clot, then a scab, and then new skin. This is what your body is designed to do: HEAL ITSELF.

And not just with cuts, bruises, and bug bites.

Think about it. If your Central Nerve System – the master system of our entire body, controlling and coordinating all other functions of the body – is operating at full force, what else could it heal?

“In the spinal column we will find a subluxation that corresponds to every type of disease.”
                                     – BJ Palmer (son of the Father of Chiropractic, DD Palmer), The Philosophy of Chiropractic, 1909
