Going to a chiropractor today can, at times, be a daunting task. Not all chiropractors are alike. Although they go by the same name, chiropractors today differ greatly in technique and philosophy. The traditional philosophy that chiropractic was based on has never changed but for social acceptance some chiropractors have.

Many patients come to us because of some sort of pain syndrome. Like you would expect back pain, neck pain, numbness, you name it. But many also come because of a health condition and this is one way that we are different. We see patients with bowel problems, reproductive problems, respiratory problems upper GI problems, fatigue, etc. Though chiropractic is not a treatment for these conditions, their symptoms can be the result of interference of the nervous system.

We also see children. Most of the problems in adults actually started when they were younger and in some cases a lot younger. Checking children for subluxation is an important part of our practice. Parents that get their children checked are a step ahead of the rest. They notice less sickness, less drugs, less school missed and with that a happier child.

The correction of a subluxation is what is called the art of chiropractic. How a vertebra is adjusted is extremely important in the outcome of your health. We use a system of locating the patient’s subluxation and adjusting it in precise way that yields amazing results. The system we use is called the Gonstead system. Dr. Gonstead was way ahead of his time and a pioneer in chiropractic. I thank him and all of those who came after him that taught me everything I know today.
