Aches and pains are signs that your body isn't working right. Your brain, spinal cord and all your nerves control how your body works. But did you know only 10% of your nerves are capable of detecting pain?  Those are the nerves that tell the brain there's something wrong.  Let me ask you... What does high cholesterol feel like?  What does high blood sugar feel like, What does a fatty liver feel like?  They don't feel like anything until you're past the point of no return, and there's a problem that now causes: pain, discomfort or another obvious symptom.  Does it make any sense to wait?  All your other nerves are devoted to controlling, balancing, and maintaining every aspect of your life 24/7 - 365 days a year.  Physical, chemical or emotional stresses produce a defensive posture. Muscles contract, locking spinal joints individually or in combination, which can pinch, scrape, tug or irritate nearby nerves which exit the spine. Some call this type of nervous system compromise a subluxation, others call it a fixation... but no matter what its called, neglected over time it can  lead to disease and ill health. A thorough examination helps chiropractors find these subluxations that can affect the 28- movable vertebra in the neck, middle and lower back.  By applying a precise, skillfully directed force called an adjustment to stuck and restricted spinal joints proper motion can be restored allowing all the nerve pathways to function normally... not just the 10% that detect pain.  Waiting to get a chiropractic adjustment is just like waiting for the smoke alarm to go off before removing any hazards or changing habits that cause a fire to start in the first place.  It may take a handful of visits to do so, and periodic follow-up afterward but in time, the nervous system revives, is able to re-boot, and health returns. That's why chiropractic care can help anyone get well and stay well.  Without drugs, and without surgery... naturally.
