I Don't Need Chiropractic Because I'm Not in Pain

Most people think they only need to see a chiropractor because they are in pain; they think if they don't have any back pain, there is no need. What if I told you that chiropractic care in Vassar was about taking care of your spine and nervous system so you could function at your highest level? That, while chiropractic care doesn't cure anything, people and families visit their chiropractor for things such as colic, chronic ear infections, asthma, indigestion, and general health.

You may be asking why? Well, did you know that your body has its own innate intelligence that regulates how your body functions through the nervous system? Your body is controlled by your brain sending messages down the spinal cord, out the spinal nerves to every single cell, tissue, muscle, and organ in your body. Your spine protects this system. If a spinal bone, called a vertebra, goes out of alignment, it can pinch and irritate the nerve in that area. When this pinch happens, the proper messages from the brain do not get out, feedback from the body may not come back properly and your body does not function at its highest level. The body is not as well able to adapt, heal and regenerate. Pain may even show up in certain areas of your body, alerting you to this disruption. Chiropractors are qualified to examine and evaluate you for these misalignments called subluxations and through chiropractic adjustments, restore proper movement and alignment to the spine so that the body is able to adapt, heal and regenerate at its highest level.
