Chiropractic works by activating your body's own natural healing capacity. It is a scientific fact that your brain, spinal cord and nerves control the repair, maintenance and and self-healing functions of your body. Thus, when your nervous system is impaired through injury or stress, tissues and organs throughout the body may begin to function poorly. This is the underlying cause of many health problems.

I used to get migraines nearly once a week, but after receiving treatment from you on a regular basis, my life and my health have changed for the better. Of course, I still get an occasional headache every now and then, but the migraines which used to leave me nearly bedridden have completely disappeared. Thank you so much for opening my eyes to chiropractic care and helping me realize that I dont need to take an Advil to get results!!! — Tara H.
