The Family Practice – A Chiropractic Tradition

In a world overflowing with high cost, high tech, impersonal doctoring, most chiropractic doctors still serve their patients in the time-honored chiropractic tradition as both spinal health professional and family doctor.

 

As spinal professionals, chiropractors concern themselves chiefly with the integrity of the patient’s spine and the spinal nerves supplying vital nerve energy to all parts, areas, and organs of the body.

 

As family doctors, drawing on their remarkable knowledge of the spine and nerves, chiropractors treat a wide variety of human illnesses, diseases, conditions, pains and problems in all members of the family —mom, dad, kids, and grandparents, too.

 

RESTORING NERVE FUNCTION
Chiropractors detect and adjust vertebral misalignments (subluxations) which pinch and irritate spinal nerves and alter normal nerve supply.

 

Without proper nerve supply, the body’s inability to fight off disease and other health problems is inevitable. With proper nerve supply, the body’s ability to heal itself and to maintain its own health can be awesome.

 

A FAMILY AFFAIR
Because every man, woman, and child has a spine and spinal nerves, chiropractic care will always be a family affair
