Chiropractic Principles

In chiropractic we understand that your body is always trying to do what's best for itself. Every day your body regulates itself in millions of ways and heals itself, from small cuts though to fighting nasty pathogens. This inner wisdom can be called Mother Nature or innate intelligence. At Kelly Chiropractic we encourage people to trust the natural healing power of their body. We believe people in general take too many antibiotics, anti-inflammatories, and other drugs, brushing aside the negative effects of these pharmaceuticals. Drugs in general are designed to make you feel better, but do they make you healthier?

Chiropractic is based on a simple but powerful premise. With a normally functioning spine and healthy nerve system, your body is better able to heal itself. That's because your spine houses and protects your nervous system, which controls feeling, movement, and all function throughout your body. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all the cells, tissues, and organs of your body have the best chance to function optimally. If you have a vertebral subluxation putting pressure on a spinal nerve, there can be a decrease in the communication between the brain and whatever that nerve goes to. The chiropractic approach to better health is to locate and correct subluxations, so that you can have optimal function of your nervous system, and therefore your body.
