THE CHIROPRACTIC LIFESTYLE

Your nervous system controls everything! Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your nervous system controls the function of viturally every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body. Your nervous system consists of your brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves in the body.



Chiropractors are experts in the care of the bones, nerves, muscles and connective tissues that make up about 60% of your body. All of the joints in your body are part of this musculo-skeletal system and its optimal function is necessary for overall good health.

Chiropractic Approach to Sciatica

The Sciatic nerves are the largest and longest nerves of the body, reaching about the size of your thumb in diameter and running down the back of each leg.

Have you or someone you know ever have sciatica? One of the most common causes of sciatica is Vertebral Subluxation Complex. It can be accompanied by the bulging or herniation of the discs which seperate each spinal bone. This can put pressure on the sciatic nerve roots as they leave the spinal cord. And anyone who has had sciatica knows that the result can be intense pain shooting down either or both legs.

In the past, treatment for this has involved pain medications, muscle relaxers, physical therapy and/or surgery. The chiropractic approach is to use carefully directed and controlled pressure to remove the interference from spinal structures............These chiropractic adjustments can be quite effective in reducing nerve irritation and its associated pain.

Sciatica, like other health problems that can be traced to the spine, often respond dramatically to the restoration of normal spinal function through conservative chiropractic care.
