Chiropractic is not just for pain

Chiropractic was originally, when developed, was not toward pain management. It was and still is based on the philosophy, which through research, that interference from the brain to the body via the nerves will produce dysfunction in the effected areas. In other words, the signal your brain is sending to your body can either be sent with static or not sent at all. A good analogy is a bad cell phone connection. You can't exactly hear everything the person on the other line is saying, but you get some idea or have to keep asking what they said.

Your body gives you signals that something isn't working properly and pain is one of them. Other signals can be numbness, dysfunction, twitching, spasms etc. Pain can come immediately after an injury, or it can take a while to show up. So how does this relate to Chiropractic Care and why its not just for pain? Another analogy is we have cars, they don't necessarily have to break down for us to maintain them. We get the oil changed regularly on our cars, we get tune-ups and even occasionally clean out our cars! We need to be doing this for our bodies as well. This also pertains to our animals as well. Why wait until we, our animals or even our children are in pain before they get a chiropractic check up? I used to get from patients, "I don't know what I did to get this way" Not taking of a car will cause it to break down, that can happen to people and animals too.

My whole point is, pain doesn't have to be present for a problem in the body to be present. Regular chiropractic check-ups for you and your pets for overall health is recommended to keep your body functioning the best it can.
