chiro and overall health
In order to begin discussing health, we need to fist define what it is.
HEALTH: Health is the 100% proper functioning of the human body, not merely the absence of symptoms or disease. It is attained when there is optimum function of the entire body, mind, and spirit. 100% functions = 100% health, reguardless of sympthoms.
Further Information.
A person can be in a state of poor health, and not yet feel any symptoms. For example; it takes years of abuse to accumulate the plaque necessary to cause a heart attack. Is the person healthy for the months or years leading up to the heart attack, or are they already in a state of declining health? We rely too heavily on symptoms to initiate an appropriate course of action. Why wait until the processes of ill health have progressed enough to give you symptoms? It is far easier to prevent something, than it is to wait and treat it later.
Headaches are not caused by a lack of aspirin in your system. Asthma is not caused by a lack of steroids in your body. You do not fall victim to a bacterium or virus due to lack of antibiotics in your blood. You must first change your definition of health, in order to know what it is like to be truly healthy. We are not merely the sum of our parts. You cannot disassemble a human being and put them back together like an automobile. We function as a whole. If one part of our system isn't working properly, the entire body is compromised.
The master control system of the body is the nervous system. Everything we are able to do: eat, sleep, breathe, digest and absorb our food, fight off infection, happens because our nervous system gives our body the messages. Vertebral Subluxations interfere with the body's innate ability to heal itself. As Chiropractors, we remove these interferences to your nervous system regardless of your symptoms, (or lack there of), in order to restore optimum function. Optimum function leads to optimum health. We are here to remove subluxations, and watch your body heal itself. For the one true doctor, is the one that resides within each and every one of us. Chiropractic today, for a healthier tomorrow.
Vertebral Subluxation Complex (VSC):
(commonly referred to as a "vertebral subluxation", or simply a "subluxation")
A subluxation is a condition in which one or more of the 26 moveable bones in your spine have slightly misaligned, causing irritation to your nervous system. Subluxations can occur with, or more commonly, without pain, and can lead to a state or declining health. There are five major components to the vertebral subluxation complex.
Further Information.
The nerves in your body are like the wires in your house. They are made up of nine major parts, or fibers. Each part, or fiber, has its own function. Only one fiber has the ability to sense pain, the other eight are incapable of this. Irritation to any of these fibers won't register with pain. You can have long standing irritation to your nervous system and not even know it. This is why your doctor of Chiropractic has spent eight years or more in school, and dedicated his or her life to be able to detect and correct these "silent killers".
As you may already know, the nervous system controls and coordinates the function of every cell, tissue, organ, and system of our body. Included in the systems, is the immune system. If there is interference to the nervous system, you simply do not function as best as you can. You are not expressing your fullest potential. As Chiropractors, we remove the interference to your nervous system, giving you the potential to live life to its fullest Chiropractic does not claim to treat any symptoms, conditions, or disease, except for the vertebral subluxation.
Subluxations are a worldwide epidemic. At Lee Chiropractic we are doing everything we can to eliminate subluxations in our community. We understand that once people have their subluxations removed, the world will be a much better place.
