How Pinched Nerves Affect Your Health

Misaligned vertebras called “subluxations” pinch nerves and alter normal nerve impulses.

This drawing illustrates in a very general way where nerves go and the health problems created by pinched nerves.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT SUBLUXATIONS? SEE YOUR CHIROPRACTIC DOCTOR!
Spinal subluxations must be realigned so normal nerve impulses can resume. It is the chiropractic doctor’s responsibility to realign vertebras into their correct positions. These treatments are called chiropractic adjustments.

Many chiropractic doctors utilize other therapies as well. Such therapies tend to speed up the healing process and improve spinal flexibility, strength, and stability.

Once the vertebras are realigned and the associated tissue derangements corrected, normal nerve impulses resume and direct the body’s own healing powers.

The human body can often rid itself of pain and disease when normal nerve function is restored through chiropractic care.
