The science of chiropractic dates back to ancient Egypt and has been used to treat and heal the sick for centuries. The popularity of this safe and effective treatment today speaks to its effectiveness in the treatment of stress, injury and acute and chronic pain.
Our chiropractic physician identifies, evaluates and treats problems associated with the spine, and seeks to restore proper bio-mechanics and nerve function to your body. Chiropractic uses gentle manipulation techniques to correct mal-aligned vertebrae that can cause pain in your body. Quite simply put, Chiropractic Care helps your whole body, not just your back. Your spine houses your central nervous system - the control path-way of the body.
If your spine lacks proper mobility, it affects the nervous system, which then hinders communication between different parts of your body. The science of Acupuncture is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine. For thousands of years the Chinese people have appreciated it for its nonpharmaceutical treatment, simple application, wide range of use, and good curative effect.
Acupuncture originated in China over four thousand years ago. It is based on the belief that health is determined by a balanced flow of Qi, the vital life energy present in all living organisms. Qi circulates in the body along twelve major meridians, each linked to specific internal organs and organ systems.
They pertain to the organs interiorly and extend over the body exteriorly, forming a network and linking the tissues and organs in the organic whole. Acupuncture is the art of placing very thin needles in specific points of the body to treat various medical conditions.
