CHIROPRACTIC

  • Promotes self healing
  • Is safe & effective when properly administered (just look up malpractice insurance for DCs vs. MDs)
  • Go to a great chiropractor & your life will change
  • Myth: "Once you start going you can't stop". This is like saying, "once you start exercising you can't stop".

CHIROPRACTIC

  • Your spine has 24 bones w cartilage
  • Undue pressure is placed on the cartilage when bones are out of place. Nerve roots can also be impinged
  • This causes degeneration of the cartilage, spine, & can negatively effect organs, glands and tissues
  • Myth: "D.C.s crunch bones". The sound is from gas escaping the joint space.

CHIROPRACTIC

  • Joints in the body signal to the brain
  • With fixated joints, signals are diminished & brain activity is decreased
  • D.C.s locate fixated joints, get signals flowing & positively effect brain activity
  • Myth: "D.C.s cause strokes". A stroke is caused by a blood clot that lodges in a vessel of the brain due to atherosclerotic conditions or from high blood pressure.

CHIROPRACTIC

  • Less research is conducted on chiropractic because there aren't groups of wealthy shareholders selling something
  • Adjustments by D.C.s vary widely in technique, skill, & confidence. This is reflected in each offices' pricing
  • Myth: "D.C.s lie, saying everyone needs it". Just as all cars need tune ups, so do people. It is rare to find a perfect spine.
