What is the purpose and benefit of chiropractic care?
The body has an innate intelligence. Innate intelligence refers to the body as a self-healing, self-regulating, organism. Organisms are organized and operating due to the innate intelligence that is in every single cell. Your heart beats, your finger nails grow, and your food turns into energy, automatically due to the innate intelligence within.
The part of your body that is responsible for adapting, healing, and communicating the organized signals in the body is the nervous system. The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. The nervous system operates and controls all other systems in the body. When you are in a natural state of “ease,” you are able to adapt to your internal and external environment the way that you were designed to.
Vertebral subluxations interfere with the nervous system’s signals contributing to dysfunction, disorder, and “dis-ease.” If you interfere with the signals traveling through your nervous system, parts of your body will not get the proper nerve messages, and will not be able to function at 100 percent. In other words, the part of the body with the interference, will not be functioning in an ideal state of “ease.” The word “dis-ease” means that you have lost some of that adaptability and function that the body depends on.
Vertebral subluxations occur regularly and in everyone. Most of the time, subluxations are present without any immediate associated symptoms. It is a tremendous gift that chiropractors can identify subluxations and adjust them, to allow the body to better adapt, heal, and be the self-regulating organism that it is meany to be.
By getting chiropractic care, you are more able to maintain the vital connection to your innate life force energy and maximize your expression of life. This is exactly why chiropractic care is just as important for a newborn as it is for an adult. You can thrive in life without subluxations rather than merely survive. Life is better without vertebral subluxations!
