Although relief from back
pain prompts many
patients' initial visit to a
chiropractor, ongoing chiropractic care is an essential
part of the well equation. For Dr. Warren, education is
a strong component of each and every patient
relationship. Here is a portion of the doctor's
explanation of chiropractic care and a few of its
benefits.
Chiropractic is effective because it works with the
body's master control system - the central nervous
system. By using a variety of techniques, chiropractors
are able to remove nerve irritation caused by spinal
misalignment. Removing the nerve irritation improves
body function and reduces pain while restoring
structural balance. |

Chiropractic is a
total and preventive approach to health,
focusing on
wellness rather than disease. Chiropractors use a natural,
drugless, non-surgical approach to health care. They consider
all aspects of the patient's life: family history, work,
lifestyle, environment, diet, exercise and the patient's
physical and emotional stress factors. They place special
emphasis on the care of the spine.
The
primary means of chiropractic care is the spinal
adjustment, a short and
painless thrust against the spine using only the doctor's
hands. Spinal adjustments correct vertebral subluxations, which are changes in the
position of the spine that do not allow the spine to function
properly. When the spine is subluxated, the nerves in that
area may behave abnormally and cause pain or other problems.
The intent of a spinal adjustment is to restore normal motion,
function and nerve impulse flow.

Doctors of chiropractic provide
highly specialized care
for musculoskeletal
conditions, and they identify and correct vertebral subluxations. They also serve as teachers as they
educate patients about the power of the body to regulate
and heal itself. And, they act as coaches who encourage
sound health and wellness habits.
Many health care providers face
patients who dread coming to their offices,
fearful of a painful procedure or suspected bad news
about their health. Although the practitioners know the
service they provide is important, these negative
interactions can decrease work satisfaction.
Chiropractors are fortunate in this regard because the
procedures they perform are never invasive. A trip to
the chiropractor is much like a trip to the health club
— an enjoyable and rewarding activity you do because you
value your health. Because people continue with regular
care for its long-term benefits, chiropractors also
build close relationships with patients over time.
