Maybe you have just overcome a health challenge or are experiencing a problem now and are looking to see what chiropractic can do. Here are some points to consider. Everyday stresses that we are all exposed to can cause spinal bones to misalign creating nerve interference; a condition called a Vertebral Subluxation. This is a bad thing because when you have subluxations the resulting nerve interference causes a disruption in the proper nerve messages between the brain and body that in turn upsets the delicate balance in body chemistry, affecting every level of your performance and every aspect of your life. The scary part of subluxations is that you rarely ever feel them. When I locate, analyze, and adjust (correct) these subluxations, I am helping to make sure that your body s innate intelligence is better expressed and that you are reaching your fullest potential in life by helping to maintain a good nerve supply to all cells, tissues, organs, and glands of your body.  b]XH#!0MbWhat Is Innate Intelligence?  Innate intelligence is described as the principle of organization that results in the ability of a living organism to organize and reorganize its physiology in order to adapt and survive in an ever-changing environment. It is what is responsible for all the proper functioning and coordination of all the trillions of cells of the body so that you can breathe, digest food, beat your heart, heal injuries, ... all the things needed for you to be alive. Innate intelligence uses our nerve system (brain, spinal cord, and nerves) as the communication system for its messages. A vertebral subluxation interferes with the expression of innate intelligence and consequently our bodies cannot function or adapt to their optimum capabilities. 8gg What Is A Vertebral Subluxation?"!  M A Vertebral Subluxation is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of their proper position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves causing those nerves to malfunction and interfere with the signals traveling over those nerves. How does this effect you? Innate intelligence uses your nerve system to control and coordinates all the functions of your body. If you interfere with the signals traveling over nerves, parts of your body will not get the proper nerve messages and will not be able to function at 100%. Your body chemistry is altered, your immune system is weakened, negative, abnormal changes take place throughout you body. In other words, your body will not be working properly. It is the responsibility of the Chiropractor to locate subluxations, and reduce or correct them. This is done through a series of chiropractic adjustments specifically designed to correct the vertebral subluxations in your spine. Chiropractors are the only professionals who undergo years of training to be the experts at correcting subluxations.  NZN$ ?!Is A Subluxation A Pinched Nerve?"" * No.  Pinched nerve was an expression used to try to simplify what a subluxation actually is. A pinched nerve is rare. When you have a subluxation, the normal opening created by spinal bones through which nerves and the spinal cord run through are now decreased. This may lead to irritation, stretching, rubbing, choking, or chafing of the spinal cord or a nerve. This distorts the nerve messages sent between the brain and the body, producing unhealthy alterations to the organs, tissues, and cells of the body.0cDo I Have A Slipped Disc?$  L The disc is a soft pulpy "shock absorber." It has a fibrous outer ring, which holds in a jelly-like material. A "slipped disc" is a common way to refer to a wide variety of disc problems. However, a disc can't slip because of the way it is attached to the spinal bones above and below it. A disc can bulge, tear, herniated, thin, dry out, or collapse. But it cannot slip. However, in order to do any of these things the vertebrae must have subluxated first. While some disc problems require immediate surgery, you can still be adjusted and often helped by chiropractic care. .MZL9How is Chiropractic Practiced Differently In This Office?$:9  , My approach to chiropractic is unique. For this reason it is sometimes referred to as Non-therapeutic Straight Chiropractic or Objective Straight Chiropractic. I have a singular objective and do not infringe upon other fields of health or disease treatment. My philosophy and practice seeks to keep the bones of the spine (vertebrae) in their proper relationships with each other, in order to remove nerve interference, allowing the body to more fully express its innate intelligence so that you can better reach your maximum potential in LIFE.v-Z  'What Do You Mean By Maximum Potential? "(&  Each individual human being has his or her own unique blend of potentials preprogrammed by genetic heritage long before birth. These include such factors as the capacity to see and to hear, the capacity for hand-eye coordination in work and play, the capacity to think clearly, to remember, to reason, to organize thoughts, to solve problems, the capacity to resist disease and to recover from injury, the capacity for balanced emotional response, for humor, for love. These are but a few examples of the many potentials and capacities inherent within the individual. While nobody can know the outermost limits of these potentials, it is easy to see how failure to express them fully would make us less than we could be. @ZVWhat Do Chiropractic and The Bones of The Spine Have To Do With Expressing Potential? "WU  The bones of the spine house and protect the spinal cord, which is the brain's control pathway to organs, glands, and other body parts. It has been shown that a loss of normal relationship between spinal bones interferes with normal nerve impulses to and from the brain, and thereby disrupts the harmonious interaction of body parts (a vertebral subluxation) . Because all of the glands and organs manufacture body chemicals, this interference disturbs the delicate balance of body chemistry. This disturbance in the balance of body chemistry affects every physical, mental and emotional aspect of life, thus interfering with the ability of your body to completely express its full potential in all areas of life. DZ1Are You Saying That Internal Changes In Body Chemistry, Caused By Vertebral Subluxation, Can Affect Such Mental Factors As Mood, Memory, Or Creative Ability?"  Yes. We have only to think of the physical, emotional and mental changes that can result from alcohol, drugs, medicines and life changes such as menopause, to realize how important body chemistry is to ALL functions. When body chemistry is disturbed either by adding chemicals from the outside, or by changing what the body manufactures from the inside, the result always affects every aspect of life. ( How Do You Get Subluxations?"  Subluxations occur when stress overcomes your body s ability to resist it. There are three basic categories of stress: physical, chemical, and emotional. Examples of physical stress include slips and falls, accidents, the birth process, repetitive motions, and improper lifting. This type of stress is the most commonly associated with chiropractic, but in reality is the least common cause of subluxations. Examples of emotional stress include worry, grief, anger, and fear. Some examples of chemical stress include alcohol, drugs, pollution, smoking, and poor diet. Usually it is a combination of all three stresses that causes subluxations. As you can imagine, the list of these everyday stresses is endless and occur throughout life.,&How Do I Know If I Have A Subluxation?$'&   Unfortunately, most of the time you don't. It is true that some vertebral subluxations may be accompanied by pain and/or muscle spasms, but in most cases, subluxations are present without any obvious symptoms. The only way to be absolutely sure is to have your spine checked by the trained hands of a chiropractor. Like early stages of cancer, heart disease, and tooth decay, subluxations can be present before any warning signs. Only a thorough spinal analysis can show the location of any subluxations you may have. :ZZ !2How Do You Identify These Vertebral Subluxations? $31   In my office identification and correction of vertebral subluxation is done by hand on every visit. It is based upon the fact that the body always uses its spinal muscles to try to correct any and all vertebral subluxations. After much training and sensitizing of my fingertips, I identify exactly what the body is trying to do with any spinal bone. If the body is trying unsuccessfully to move a bone, I implicitly trust the body's innate wisdom to know what it is doing, and I offer a little extra thrust for the body to complete the job. When the balance of spinal muscles indicates that the body is content with the position of all spinal bones, I am also satisfied, and nothing further is done. On your first visit and on every re-evaluation we will use the Insight 7000 Subluxation Station to scan your spine using Surface Electromyography (SEMG) and Infrared Thermography (IRT). ,ZZ:Will I Need A Ton Of Unnecessary And Expensive Procedures? ;:   Of course not. This isn't one of those offices that will overanalyze things to run up a big bill. Many people are apprehensive about starting care because of the cost of x-rays or other imaging or tests. My method of analyzing your spine does not require those expensive tests. However, if something in your consultation or examination would suggest that you would need further testing you would be informed and you would make the necessary arrangements with whomever you wanted to go to for further tests. R Z_>How Does A Chiropractor Correct These Vertebral Subluxations? "?=  To be absolutely accurate, I must point out that the chiropractor does not really correct the vertebral subluxations. The body uses its own spinal muscles to do that. Where there are muscle fibers working to correct a vertebral subluxation, I apply a very specific force in the direction indicated so that your body may adapt accordingly and make the necessary  adjustment . If after this application of force your body is no longer working for change, my job is completed. The majority of the time the force will come from my hands, but I may also use an instrument, a part of the adjusting table, or the force of gravity to assist in helping make the adjustment. There are many ways to adjust the spine. <ZHWill An Adjustment Hurt? Can My Newborn Or My Grandparents Receive Care?II 2 This is one of the most common questions I receive. The simple answer is No the adjustments doesn t hurt. There are specific modifications and different adjusting techniques that allow me to care for newborns to the frailest of the elderly. They can even be tailored to adjust the tight muscles of a construction worker or athlete that may need a little "extra". No two people have the same body, and no two people are adjusted exactly the same. One thing is for sure; a full understanding of your concerns will be listened to and addressed before we proceed with care. That said, the vast majority of people love receiving adjustments because not only is it good for you, but it feels wonderful, and something they look forward to experiencing every week. An occasional rare individual may experience a split second of discomfort. If that were to occur, I would change to a different adjusting technique. 2ZlF$%IGs"Are Chiropractic Adjustments Safe?"#"  Yes. Numerous studies have found that adjustments are "remarkably safe." A thorough spinal analysis can identify the rare person for whom chiropractic care might need to be modified or not be suited. Many hours of training and years of perfecting our art has made chiropractic probably the safest form of health care. If you have any doubts, compare the statistics and check malpractice fees.  UHow Long Does An Adjustment Take? Will There Be Long Wait Times And Long Visit Times?@V!  3 ! No! I hate waiting in doctors' offices as well. The doctor is not the only busy person in the world. I realize that you are all busy and can't and don't want to devote large amounts of time for care. The thorough, efficient, and quick methods of analyzing your spine and the adjusting techniques I use can have you checked, adjusted, and on your way in 1 to 5 minutes so that you can go on living your life. Because this is so quick you rarely have to wait more than a few minutes (if at all) to be seen. I work diligently to insure that you are seen as quickly as possible and offer appointments that are convenient to your busy lifestyle. Please rest assured that should you ever have questions or want to learn more about health, arrangements will be made to answer your questions. <"Z"'Can Subluxations Clear Up On Their Own?"('  Sometimes. Today's hectic lifestyles are a constant source of subluxations. Fortunately, our bodies have the ability to self-correct some of these problems as we bend and stretch, or when we sleep at night. The only problem is that we do not always know when we have subluxations nor can we predict if they will be corrected. For this reason, spinal check-ups are necessary. ,~,)=Why Doesn't A Subluxation Stay Corrected After An Adjustment?">=  Before answering this question I would like you to review the question titled "How do you get subluxations?" Realize that many subluxations have been present for years or decades before many people come to a chiropractor. Bone, ligament, muscle, tendon, and disc shapes have been altered. Your body perceives this 'bad' position as normal. It takes months of regular care to properly retrain and reshape these structures. In fact, ligaments may take a year or longer to heal correctly. Also, the reason why subluxations do not stay corrected is because the causes of subluxations exist throughout your life. They may vary from time to time; as will your subluxations, but the stresses that cause subluxations exist from birth to death. <Z# GCan The Bones Move Too Much? Will Adjustments Make My Spine Too Loose?"HG  No. A chiropractic adjustment has the right amount of energy, delivered to an exact spot, at a precise angle, at just the right time. The intent is to get a "stuck" spinal joint moving again, helping reduced nerve interference. Years of training, practice, and experience make chiropractic adjustments specific and safe. Only the spinal joints that are subluxated receive adjustments. This helps allow weakened muscles, tendons, and ligaments to better stabilize and heal.6 $!,What Makes A Sound During The Adjustment? "-)  Lubricating fluids separate the bones of each spinal joint. Some adjusting methods can produce a sound when the gas and fluids in the joints shift. It's much like opening a bottle of champagne or removing a suction cup. The sound is interesting, but it isn't a guide to the quality or value of the adjustment. In other words, you can be adjusted without producing the sound or you can produce the sound without being properly adjusted.,%"1Are All Practice Members Adjusted The Same Way? $2/  G No. At times it may look that way. But, each practice member's spine is unique. With 24 moving bones in the spine, most of which can be subluxated in many different directions, we see wide variety of subluxation patterns. Each practice member's care is custom tailored for his or her age, condition, health goals, etc. HH&#Can I Adjust Myself?"  Not really. Some people can make their joints "pop", but that's usually not an adjustment! In many instances they are moving hyper-mobile joints (joints that move too much to make up for the subluxated "stuck" joints). By doing so, they give the stuck joints no incentive to become unstuck. Worse, damage can occur by mobilizing a joint with weakened muscles and ligaments. Adjustments are specific and take years to master. Even your chiropractor must consult a colleague to benefit from chiropractic care. <Z '$/Why Do Newborns and Children Need Adjustments? "0.  Even under the best circumstances today's natural childbirth methods can be very traumatic to an infant's spine. Use of forceps, vacuum extraction, and C-sections are even more traumatic. Preliminary studies suggest that health issues that occur in children can be signs of spinal stress. Learning to crawl, walk, run, and all the new physical activities associated with childhood are constant sources of subluxations. A tremendous amount of physical, emotional, and chemical changes occur in our first years of life. Each a potential cause of subluxation. In fact, children may need chiropractic care more than adults. Pediatric adjustments are gentle and incredibly safe. Knowing exactly where to adjust, I apply no more pressure than you use to test the ripeness of a tomato..ZH=D;Y(%=Can Older People With Osteoporosis Receive Chiropractic Care?">=  Of course. When developing a care plan, I consider the unique circumstances of each patient. They are many ways to adjust the spine. The methods selected will be best suited to your age, size, condition, etc. 8)&0Can I Have Chiropractic Care After Back Surgery?"10  Yes. Rest assured that I can avoid the surgically modified areas of your spine if needed. Surgery often causes instability above or below the involved levels. Many times these areas will be the focus of your chiropractic care. 6-*>Why Do Some People Need More Frequent Adjustments Than Others?$?>  p Everyone is under different stresses and everyone's ability to handle stress is different. Our bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, etc. are different and respond differently to stresses. We all have different genetic predispositions to certain subluxations, which we have inherited from our parents and grandparents. We do different things to promote or damage our health. Taking all that into consideration it is easy to see how some may need more frequent care than others. As you progress with care, you and I will determine what frequency of care is best for you based on your subluxation patterns.  qZqn.+2Is There Anything I Can Do To Strengthen My Spine?$32   First and foremost, you need to stick to your adjustment schedule. That will be the best thing you can do for your spine. Getting the proper nutrition, rest, exercise, and having a positive mental attitude are a few things that can help promote overall health. You can also try to avoid things that damage health. Unfortunately, there are no specific exercises that can be done to strengthen the tiny muscles surrounding the bones of your spine because they are involuntary muscles. : 4Will You Be Able To Treat/Cure My (Symptom/Disease)? 54  As offered in this clinic, chiropractic is NOT a treatment for any condition, or an attempt to cure any disease. No doctor can cure anything; only the body can cure itself. Sick and diseased cells must die and be replaced by healthy cells in order for you to heal and "be cured". That can only be done by your body. One of the potentials reduced by subluxation is the body's potential for health and healing. A body that has vertebral subluxations could never be as healthy as it could under the same circumstances, but without the subluxations. Chiropractic care helps your body to function to its greatest potential and in many cases will help in the production of healthy cells, thereby allowing your body to better heal itself. As an analogy we'll use darkness (disease) and light (health/life). Darkness (disease) is really just an absence of light (health/life). Trying to remove darkness out of a room would not give you satisfactory results. The approach I use is to add more light (health/life) to your body. Bottom line: Through our interactions, my intent and hope for you is that you understand what it takes to be healthy so you can have control of your health and life.0Z~MMOMP*'#How Long Until I'll "Feel Better"? $$"   It is important to remember that how you feel is not the focus of our care . Symptoms are a very poor judge of health. Many times they are usually the last part of a diseases process to appear and they can disappear before a problem has even begun to be corrected under chiropractic care. In many cases they may even be beneficial. They serve no purpose in determining if or where you need to be adjusted. Only the presence of subluxations will determine if you need care. Many practice members do come to the office with symptoms. Some experience almost instant relief. Others discover it can take many weeks or months to "feel better". Many factors can affect the healing process. We all want to feel good, but your progress and care do not revolve around symptoms. There is also no way to predict if, when, or how you will get better. I can only adjust subluxations when I find them, thereby allowing your body to do its job of healing itself. bZ4ZC@>q+(GWill Regular Visits To The Chiropractor Help Prevent Certain Illnesses?$HG  O Its hard to say, because there are so many factors that can cause an illness. Genetics, diet, exercise, rest, lifestyle choices, exposure to toxins, etc. are just some factors that can play a part in whether or not you become ill. Chiropractic helps you to express your potential in all areas of life, including health. Logically, getting adjusted should be a huge help in preventing illness and disease. For example, in some studies it has been shown that chiropractic can boost your immune system. Just that benefit alone has to be a big plus in promoting health. But, other health promoting activities, such as exercise, getting proper nutrition, proper rest, need to be done as well. By giving you a healthy nerve system, chiropractic enhances those health-promoting activities together and helps you get the most out of them.:PLHE G ,Will I Have To Come For The Rest Of My Life? -,  Of course not, not if you don't want to. There are people who use my services for pain relief or like a band-aid. They deny their awareness of how to take better control of their health and life so unfortunately; their situations and conditions keep recurring. However, those that do learn about chiropractic and optimum health come to appreciate their health and well-being. My job is to explain your options and offer the very best care; your job is to decide how much of it you want. Most people choose to come regularly for the rest of their lives because they realize that anything that is of benefit to their health and life: exercise, proper nutrition, proper rest, brushing your teeth, proper hygiene, etc. must be done regularly to obtain the proper benefit. You must look at chiropractic care as part of a healthy lifestyle, not a temporary treatment for something. I correct nerve interference caused by subluxations in your spine, which occur throughout your life. Having a nerve system free of interference is not something you want only occasionally, but something you should want from birth until death. Most people decide to continue getting checked weekly because it is healthy to do so and it improves their life.2ZNMOOLRE/,/How Often Should I Get Adjusted If I Feel Fine?"0/  To answer this you must remember that the purpose for getting adjusted is to correct subluxations. The problem is that subluxations usually don't cause pain. By the time you feel any pain or discomfort, your subluxations may have been there for a while. So, how often should you get checked to see if you need to be adjusted? My practice members who "feel fine" get checked weekly, a very select few that can hold their adjustments longer come in bi-weekly. The question you have to ask yourself is, "How much nerve system interference and/or malfunction from subluxations is acceptable?" For me  NONE! I get checked 2 times a week and check my family almost every day. You and I will determine how often you should get checked. <ZWill Care Be Too Expensive?   Absolutely not! Our first visit fee is $30. We also have a set fee for an adjustment, which is $30, however almost no one pays that fee. Our office utilizes the Honor Fee System, a unique fee system that allows YOU to set your own fees. P<What Is The Honor Fee System?  The Honor Fee System is a fee system that allows each individual or family to pay according to your means. You set a fee that is honest and reasonable for your financial condition. The fee will be placed privately in a box and no one will know what you have paid, unless you pay by check. It is not designed to be a charity, a bargain, or abused. It is merely a simple and honest approach to the problem of spiraling health care costs and depends on YOU for its continuation. Furthermore, this fee system is a privilege which carries with it simple responsibilities on your part to follow the rules of the system. The rules basically require you to get checked at least once a week, pay what you can afford, share chiropractic with others.<6DHa WWill I Have To Buy Vitamins, Pillows, Orthotics, Or Other Things To Supplement My Care?"XW % )> I'm certainly not critiquing those things. However, with that said, I do not participate in any of those things. This office is chiropractic only. Since I practice what is called Objective Straight Chiropractic, I do nothing besides locate, analyze, and assist in the correction of vertebral subluxations. There are other professions that deal with nutrition, therapy, etc. My suggestion would be to look into them if you wanted those services. In some instances, I may be able to steer you in the right direction for obtaining the information that you seek..?Z>"e!0  jWill I Have To Undergo Any Physical Therapy Modalities (Ultrasound, Muscle Stimulation, Heat, Ice, Etc.)? (ki  s This one always makes me wonder. Why anyone would go to a chiropractor for physical therapy? Better yet, why would a chiropractor want to do physical therapy? Why not just go to a physical therapist? Again, there is nothing offered at this office except chiropractic adjustments. If you are looking for any physical therapy, you will have to look elsewhere.tt0->Do You Do Talks About Chiropractic To Clubs and Organizations?"?>  Absolutely. I enjoy any opportunity to lecture about chiropractic and health. If you belong to any group or organization that hosts lectures please let me know. I would love to do a talk for your group. 3.$How Can My Family And I Get Started?%% . You can get in touch with me by phone or email to schedule your first appointment.
