Chiropractic near Eastwood – How Chiropractic care can help you…
Your nervous system which includes the brain, spinal cord and nerves, controls the functioning of every part of your body including your muscles, joints and ligaments, your internal organs and and even functioning at the individual cell level. When there are interferences to the way your nervous system operates it is then understandable that there will be various adverse consequences to your overall health and well being. Chiropractors are health practitioners who are specifically trained to detect and correct changes to your spine that may be interfering with the operation of your nervous system.
By having regular Chiropractic treatments to your spine, the functioning of your nervous system will be enhanced, having a positive effect on your overall health and preventing mechanical disorders and musculoskeletal problems. How? Well Chiropractors are able to create a system where nerve signals flow freely throughout your body by working with your spine to optimise the position of your spinal vertebrae and joints. Ensuring the nervous system is free-flowing and interference free, helps to eliminate illness and pain. Rather than using drugs or surgery, your Chiropractor will use gentle ‘adjustments’ that correct the mobility of your spinal joints and the position of your vertebrae. The chiropractic adjustment has been proven to be a safe and effective technique used to obtain overall good health.
Removing interferences to your nervous system by optimising joint mobility and vertebrae positioning may help with the management of:
- Neck pain, migraines and headaches
- Lower back pain, Hip pain, Sciatica and disc symptoms
- Pregnancy and pediatric related symptoms
- Flexibility and coordination, balance, strength and rehabilitation
- and much more!
