Do I Have A Pinched Nerve?

A pinched nerve is rare. It is more likely that an adjacent spinal bone irritates, stretches, rubs or chafes a nerve otherwise knows as a subluxation. These subluxations distort the nerve messages sent between the brain and the body. This can produce unhealthy changes to the organs and tissues connected to the affected nerve.

Do I Have A Slipped Disc?

Between each pair of spinal bones is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. This soft center serves as a “ball bearing” for joint movement. Because of the way it attaches to the spinal bone above and below it, a disc can’t actually “slip.” However, a disc can bulge. It can tear. It can herniate. It can thin and dry out. And it can collapse. But it can’t slip.

How does Chiropractic Work?

Chiropractic works because you are a self-healing, self-regulating organism controlled by your nervous system. Millions of instructions flow from your brain, down the spinal cord and out to every organ and tissue. Signals sent back to the brain confirm if your body is working right.

Improper motion or position of the moving bones of the spine, called a subluxation, can interfere with this vital exchange by irritating nerves and compromising the function of affected organs and tissues. This nerve interference can be present whether or not you feel pain. Specific spinal adjustments help move bones back in place relieving nerve interference. Health often returns with improved nervous system control of the body.
