Chiropractic Care by Dr. Russell Janssen

Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism.

These important functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of the body.

The skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect the spinal cord and nerves.

If the nervous system is impaired by the spine being out of place, it can cause malfunction somewhere in the body. Doctors call this the Vertebral Subluxation Complex. "Vertebral", meaning the bones of the spine; "subluxation", meaning a bone out of place.

Chiropractic works by restoring your body's own inborn ability to be healthy. When under the proper control of your nervous system, all the cells, tissues and organs of your body are designed to resist disease and ill health.

The chiropractic approach to better health is to locate and help remove interferences to your natural state of being healthy. A common location of interference to the nervous system is the 24 moving bones of the spinal column.

A loss of normal motion or position of theses bones can irritate or impair the function of the nervous system. This can disrupt the transmission of nerve impulses impairing normal health.

The primary focus of your care to have no pain. However by improved nervous system function, chiropractic care can have a positive effect on many secondary health conditions not normally thought of as "neck or back" problems.
