Truth About Chiropractic, Part 3

How Do Body Chemistry and Human Performance Become Disrupted?

In the first two parts of this topic we discussed how chiropractic deals with every aspect of human performance and that all human performance is controlled by body chemistry. Our body chemistry is controlled by organs and glands whose job it is to make chemicals. All these organs and glands are controlled by the nervous system, and the nervous system is protected by the bones of the spine. Then a subluxation occurs (a spinal bone out of alignment that damages the nerve).

A subluxation is a spinal bone (vertebrae) over which the body has lost some of its control. The position of the bone irritates the nerves. The irritated nerves disrupt gland function. Improper gland function disrupts body chemistry. Disrupted body chemistry decreases performance levels.

What Does Chiropractic Do?

When a chiropractic adjustment is given the proper position of the vertebra is restored along with the interference to the nerve. When nerve system control is restored normal gland function returns. Proper gland production balances body chemistry, which increases human performance.

So, chiropractic care is not necessarily about helping stiff necks and mending sore backs. A chiropractic adjustment may not make your symptoms go away but it is not meant to. An adjustment opens up the life channels of your body and improves your overall life and it does that every time in every body. In other words, chiropractic care is not about your pains, your conditions, or diseases. It is about your life. 

How Often Should a Person See Their Chiropractor?

What about the damage done to the body when there are subluxations that go uncorrected? The damage done to the body’s overall ability to be healthy is cumulative. If you get adjusted the day after you are subluxated that is not too bad. A month later, that is not too good. After thirty years, some of the damage may be permanent. For the maximum benefits of chiropractic care, begin as early in life as you possibly can and do it for a lifetime. If you are new to chiropractic you have probably wondered why there are so many children in your chiropractor’s office, now you know. The younger you begin and the more frequently you see your chiropractor the better your health and performance will be. On your next visit, ask your chiropractor how often he or she is checked by their own chiropractor. You’ll be surprised to find that they seldom go longer than 7 days without a chiropractic checkup.
