What to expect with chiropractic in our Galesburg IL clinic

There are simply a few things that you must know about Chiropractic in Galesburg IL, and how it differs from the practice of Medicine.

Spines are very important: I think you would agree! Spinal cord injury could leave you paralyzed or dead!

First of all, we chiropractors acknowledge a wisdom inside the body that is very intelligent. We count on this inborn wisdom to run all the functions of the body. This is where the spinal column comes in.

The intelligent signal message is communicated in the body via the spinal nerve cord and its associated nerves.

Every signal from the brain to all body parts utilizes the spinal column. Every single one!

When vertebra shift out of alignment, nerves are affected. You call it the pinched nerve. We call it Subluxation. If this occurs in the neck, tissues of the face, arms, and chest organs are adversely affected. If it occurs in the low back, tissues of the legs, pelvis, and abdominal organs are affected. Once again, the spinal column channels ALL messages from the brain out to body parts. This is why the spine is such a big key in overall health. It is literally Grand Central Station.

Our Goal in Galesburg IL

Our professional goal is to un-subluxate the spinal segment in danger so that 100 percent of the nerve signal is restored to the body part.

The healing is conducted by the intelligent wisdom of the body. It is our job to release the nerve pressure thus allowing the free flow of intelligent messaging to and from the brain.

Our clinical procedure does begin with some paperwork. (Sorry). We will conduct a spinal exam with high tech computer scanning and an X-ray series. You will be shown a report of our findings and shown the cause of the problem projected on the X-rays. If you qualify for care, you will undergo a treatment plan designed to restore normal nerve signal to suffering tissues.

We will not give you something to cover up your symptom for a short period of time. We are interested in some actual healing of damaged tissues; a structural change.

We may utilize Acupuncture or Cold Laser to expedite tissue healing.

Most treatment plans are successful within 30-60 days. Of course, it depends if you are a smoker or eat a horrible diet. Exercise always accelerates tissue healing. Yes, I know some of you are rather allergic to exercise.

Once better alignment has been established, consider a regular course of spinal adjusting to prevent a major relapse.

Full, vibrant health can only be possible when nerve channels are free to deliver the intelligent signal to all body parts.
