Your Health Maintenance

What is health?

If you were to ask 10 of your friends, you may get 10 different answers. It must be more than just the absence of disease. Health must be viewed as an ever-evolving state, a process that starts when you are born and ends at death.

Throughout Chiropractic history, its practitioners have been promoting the concept of the body's ability to heal itself, and the need to maintain the nervous system free from neurological irritation. For most of us, we hide our symptoms and problems by medicating them, suppressing symptoms that are warning signs, instead of correcting the cause of the malfunction. The Chiropractic approach to health focuses on "maintaining health" instead of "treating disease". We must understand that being well differs from relieving symptoms.

Chiropractors teach that health is not a commodity, it can only be obtained and maintained by allowing the natural recuperative powers of the body to function unimpaired. Locating minor spinal deviations early, before they interfere with a proper functioning nervous system, and produce symptoms, will greatly assist your body in remaining healthy.

Regular spinal adjustments are the most important part of your body's defense against illness. Correcting the cause rather than only treating the effects is integral in maintaining your health.

Maintain your health....get adjusted today!!
