How Chiropractic Works.
We care and we want to help you!
Chiropractors are nerve and spine doctors. They treat your body by treating the nerves and spine. They don’t use drugs and never use surgery. Chiropractors are trained to locate tiny areas of irritation on your nerves and remove them safely and painlessly. By removing this irritation, chiropractic allows your body to function properly and to heal itself.
How chiropractic works is similar to removing a pebble from a shoe. Have you ever had a pebble in your shoe?
A tiny pebble, smaller than the size of a pea, can cause constant irritation of a nerve so much that it can drive you to the point where all you think about is that sense of irritation. At first it feels like a pressure, then an irritation, and finally, pain.
If you move the pebble around in your shoe, but you don’t remove it, what happens? It hurts everywhere it goes, doesn’t it? That’s because a nerve is connected to every cell in your body. The nerve picks up the pressure and irritation sensation, sends it to your brain and central nervous system and alerts you that something is wrong.
How can you solve the pebble problem? There are many ways.
- You can get a new shoe made just like your old one, but the shoemaker will include the pebble.
- You can get your foot amputated and use a prosthesis.
- You could take an aspirin or pain medication to block the pain sensations.
- You can get surgery for the pebble irritation and drastically increase your pain for awhile, then discover that the pebble is still there.
- You can talk to a psychologist about the pebble for hours and hours.
Do you see how unnatural these other solutions are? Some of them are even ridiculous. It is not logical to treat a physical problem by replacing a body part, using a chemical solution, scheduling an operation or getting psychological help!
The best thing to do is to remove the pebble from the shoe. The problem is physical, and so is the solution. That’s what chiropractors do. They search for the real cause of the problem and then create a solution for it through your body’s nervous system. It’s the way that healing was meant to be
