Who can benefit from chiropractic care?

It is important to understand that Chiropractors are unable to treat specific symptoms and cannot predict a specific outcome. We at Juniper Family Chiropractic want you to have realistic expectations for care. A chiropractor’s job is not to treat conditions but to evaluate how the nervous system is functioning throughout the body. We evaluate and correct vertebral subluxations, or misalignment in the spinal column, which interferes with how the nervous system sends and receives messages from the brain. Because the nervous system influences all bodily functions, you often hear that symptoms are improved under chiropractic care. This is not because we are doing something to treat a specific symptom or condition. It is because we are improving the brain-body communication, thus improving one’s ability to adapt to internal and environmental stress. Because of this, we feel everyone can benefit from chiropractic care.

It isn’t about pain, it is about function! Did you know that only 10% of the nervous system is involved in transmitting pain signals? Focusing on pain and ignoring the other signs of nerve interference is detrimental your overall health. Let’s work together on how to be more aware of our bodies and what they need to function at their optimal potential!
