Everything we do at our clinic, is based on four vitally important principles of how your body works…

The Four Principles of Health:

1. Your body is a self healing organism. Your body is designed to heal itself and health, not sickness, is your natural state!

Where you aware that your body is in a constant state of change and repair? For example, every 30 days all the cells in your liver die and are completely replaced by brand new ones! Every 120 days, all of the Red Blood Cells that carry oxygen in your body are completely replaced by brand new ones.

At night when you are getting ready for bed, thousands of dead skin cells fall off your body and are replaced by brand new ones! In fact most of the dust that you vacuum up at your house is actually you!

The point to be emphasized is that in order for this to happen, and in order for body to maintain constant health, your body follows a very exact program. Your body was designed and programmed to be 100% healthy.

The question to ask then is: If health is our natural state, why do we get sick?

2. The program that keeps you healthy and functioning normally is run by your nervous system.

The nervous system is the most complex and amazing system in your body. The nervous system is your brain, spinal cord, and all of the nerves in the body. Your brain acts like a central command computer that runs all of you!

As long as your brain is able to communicate 100% effectively with all of your body’s cells, tissues, and organs – literally every nook and cranny of you- then you should experience the best level of health ever! In fact this is called – NORMAL!

3. When something interferes with your nervous systems ability to properly coordinate and control all the functions in your body – then instead of health, your body will begin to do it’s own thing. Over time, your body can start to malfunction and dis-ease (disease) can develop. The most critical area that interference can occur to your nerve system is in your spine.

Your spine is a remarkable achievement of engineering. In addition to supporting and moving the body, your spine protects the extremely delicate spinal cord and nerve tissue. When injuries occur to your spine usually as a result of some physical trauma and stress, the spine can become misaligned or lose its proper motion and movement. Chiropractors refer to this problem as the Vertebral Subluxation Complex or just Subluxation. A Subluxation of a vertebrae or bone of the spine, creates an interference in the function of your nervous system. As a result your nervous system is not able to properly run all of you or maintain your health! The result is that your body does it’s own thing, and often poor health can result.

4. As chiropractors, our job is uniquely different. Instead of covering up pain or other symptoms, chiropractors look to the spine, to see if there are Subluxations causing problems with the nerve function. By properly restoring the spine to it’s proper movement and alignment, we can help correct abnormal nerve function in the spine. As a result, your body can work better, and your body is then able to respond better to the stresses of life. Ultimately, everyday across the world millions of people from newborns to senior citizens are enjoying the natural benefits of improved health with chiropractic care!
