Avalon Chiropractic Clinic, P.C.

Chiropractic is a natural system of health care shown effective in the reduction of spine-related pain and in the restoration of optimal bodily function.

Although the body innately maintains optimal function under normal circumstances, this natural ability is wildly disrupted when sickness, stress, and injury occur.

Much of the body’s ability to heal itself and stay healthy is based on the optimal functioning of the body’s nervous systems. Not just the muscles and joints, but every organ and gland in the body is controlled by an aspect of the nervous system. Because of this, anything that interferes with the optimal function of the nervous system interferes with the body’s ability to heal, stay healthy, and function optimally.

When the natural motion and position of the vertebrae are interrupted, the nerves and their functions become compromised and are place in a more vulnerable state. When this happens, injury can occur to the nerve, the surrounding soft tissue and organs that the nerve communicates with.  The chiropractic adjustment helps to restore the correct position and motion of the spine, allowing your body to heal and function appropriately.  

What are Subluxations?

Subluxations are caused by stresses experienced through the nervous system. Common types of stresses includes:

1. Physical stress such as trauma, body posture, sleeping positions and exercise.

2. Biochemical stress can be caused by triggers such as poor nutrition, prescription drugs, illegal drugs and pollution.

3. Psychological stress such as relationship stress and job stress.

Although you may not experience any effects from subluxations initially, symptoms such as headaches, back pain, neck stiffness, pain or numbness in your arms, hands, legs, or feet, and various other signs and symptoms can be indications of subluxations.

What do Chiropractic adjustments do?

Chiropractic adjustments eliminate subluxations and restore nerve system function by restoring the joint to its proper alignment which allows proper communication between the brain, organs, tissues and cells in the body. At Avalon Chiropractic Clinic, we have many diagnostic tools to identify subluxations in our patients, so we can provide them with proper individualized care. Regular chiropractic adjustments give the body the ability to express a greater state of health and wellbeing naturally, without the use of drugs or surgery.
