Chiropractic
The human body has the natural power to heal itself, but it sometimes needs help putting that power into action. Chiropractic assists the natural healing process and helps maintain, restore and enhance your health without drugs or surgery.
Chiropractors work with your body's "total neuro-musculo-skeletal system" - which controls your nerves, muscles and bones. Because the body's various systems depend on one another to function properly, the neuro-musculo-skeletal system plays a primary role in your health. Chiropractic doctors use their hands to administer specific adjustments to joints that are fixated or not moving well. These adjustments are safe, painless and non-invasive, and positively affect the nervous system, muscles and immune system.
Fixated joints occur when muscles are overused, overworked or affected by trauma and inflammation. These fixated areas can cause symptoms of pain, numbness, and weakness. Chiropractic, especially in combination with soft tissue therapy such as Active Release Technique, helps to restore motion to the joints and muscles and allows the body to function optimally.
Chiropractic is a healing discipline firmly grounded in science. Chiropractors have been thoroughly trained in the diagnosis and treatment of a multitude of conditions. They are skilled in recognizing problems that may require the treatment of other medical professionals and will refer as necessary.
Chiropractic is the third-largest primary healthcare profession in Canada and covered by most Extended Health Plans.
