Accidents, falls, stress, sports and other injuries, overexertion, and countless other factors can result in a displacements or derangements of your joints and your spine, and in some cases also causing irritation to spinal nerve roots. Your spinal column is a series of movable bones which begin at the base of your skull and end in the center of your hips. Thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves extend down the spine from the brain and exit through a series of openings. The nerves leave the spine and form a complicated network which influences every living tissue in your body.

These irritations and misplaced joints often cause discomfort, pain, neurological symptoms and often related muscle spasms in the body. Chiropractic reduces or eliminates this irritation to spinal nerves and associated muscle spasms through a series of manipulative therapy called adjustments. There is also emphasis on reducing inflammation, scar tissue, tight and spastic muscles and other soft tissue irritation in modern chiropractic utilizing physical therapy modalities and Active Release Techniques, ART™

The result is usually an instant relief of discomfort and pain thus allowing your body to operate more comfortably and normally again.
