Every illness has an underlying cause which can often be found
in certain aspects of your lifestyle, environment or selection
of foods. Treatment is founded on the belief in the ability of
the body to heal itself. Natural health care incorporates the
wisdom of ancient methods with the most advanced scientific
research for the prevention, treatment, and reversal of
disease. Using traditional as well as the most recent proven
diagnostic techniques allows the thorough assessment of both
symptoms and underlying causes. Finally, natural therapeutic
modalities, while quite powerful, are generally free from the
toxic side effects of many conventionally used pharmaceutical
drugs. The significance of Chiropractic is to integrate
structure and function to achieve health. A variety of
techniques for adjusting the osseous and soft tissues are used
in order to correct structural and / or postural imbalances or
pathology. Because it is specific to the individual, there is
no typical course of treatment. Depending upon the condition,
the duration of the problem, and the modalities used, a course
may vary from one simple session to a series of several
visits.
