Let's take a brief look at how your body works
Your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important functions are controlled by your brain and spinal cord via your body's complex nervous system. Your brain and nerves continuously monitor and co-ordinate everything that is happening in your body.
The skull protects your brain. The moving bones of your spine protect the spinal cord and nerve roots. A lack of movement or abnormal movement of the spinal joints may interfere with the normal function of your nervous system.
What is an adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment is the skilled use of delivering a specific force in a precise direction, to a joint that is stuck, or not moving correctly. This adds motion to the joint.
There are many ways to adjust the spine. Chiropractors may use their hands; or have the aid of special adjusting tables; or have you lie on pelvic blocks; or use specialised hand held instruments. Which technique is chosen is dependent on your individual circumstances - an elderly women, an elite footballer and a baby will obviously require very different approaches.
After years of university training and clinical experience, each chiropractor becomes highly skilled in the delivery of a variety of adjusting approaches.
For any specific technique related enquiries, please feel free to contact the team at Blackwood Chiropractic Centre in Main Road Blackwood today on 8370 2755.
