Every function of your body is controlled by your central nervous system, and this function can be disrupted by misalignments in your spine. These are called subluxations. A subluxation creates interference in the function of your spinal nerves, and this can result in impaired functioning of your organs and endocrine system.
Chiropractic adjustments are simply a way to remove that interference and restore the natural function of your body. Chiropractic is truly about prevention.
