CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Chiropractic care is a health care science that
utilizes the body’s innate ability to heal itself.
Chiropractic is deeply rooted in science and
neurology. Chiropractic philosophy states
that subluxations (misalignments) of the spine
interfere with the natural healing process of
the body, known as innate intelligence. When
subluxations occur, pain or dysfunction happen.
These subluxations are caused by physical stress,
mental stress, or chemical/ environmental stress.
Chiropractors focus on treating the patient as a
whole, instead of simply treating a symptom.
HISTORY
The word Chiropractic means “done by hand. ”
This healing art began up to 5,000 years ago in
both China and Greece. The famous physician
Hippocrates believed strongly in the health
benefits of spinal manipulation and stated “Get
knowledge of the spine, for this is the cause of
many diseases”. Native Americans and ancient
Europeans used “back walkers” and “bonesetters”
to improve health.
Chiropractic care was developed in America
by Daniel David Palmer in 1895 when he gave
an adjustment to his patient Harvey Lillard,
and restored his hearing that had been lost for
decades after an accident. Now, Chiropractic is a
widely accepted and respected healing method,
and is used by nearly all professional sports teams.
It is used in Veteran’s hospitals across the country.
YOUR CARE
After your doctor discusses your health status
with you and gives you a complete physical and
neurological exam, you will be given a treatment
plan to best fit your goals and optimize your health.
During the initial stages of your adjustments, your
doctor might give you supportive advice to use at
home such as whether to apply ice or heat, or
dietary considerations to help your body heal.
X-RAY DIAGNOSIS
When necessary, our doctors will recommend spinal
x-rays to diagnosis conditions. These are taken in

technology, and provide patients with a personal CD
to keep for themselves.
