Chiropractic is a branch of the health care sciences and is the third largest primary health care profession in the western world after conventional medicine and dentistry.


Chiropractic is a primary health care discipline, which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery.

The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between the structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. In addition, Doctors of Chiropractic recognise the value and responsibility of working in cooperation with other health care practitioners when in the best interest of the patient.

The basic concept of chiropractic relates to the fact that the nervous system controls all organs, tissues and cells of the body. When vital nerve communication pathways are interfered with, as can occur with a variety of structural and / or functional problems in the spine, pain and ill health can be the result. Research both within and outside the chiropractic profession now provides support for this concept.

The Chiropractic profession is often poorly misunderstood. Chiropractic is founded on the scientific premise that the brain and nervous system can deliver its impulses and messages for the proper function of the body’s tissues, organs and systems.

Everyday occurrences, slips and falls can cause the spinal bones to lose their usual motion or position. This misalignment of the vertebrae is called VERTEBRAL SUBLUXTION. The misalignment of the vertebrae can result in nerve interference (decreased nerve function) to the areas of the body that the nerves supply. Symptoms often include but are not limited to, tingling, pain, numbness, or no symptoms at all. This can set off a chain reaction affecting the vertebrae, nerves, muscles, soft tissues and results in degenerative changes throughout the body.

Chiropractic massage provides this along with treatment of the spine and the body as a whole. It aims to bring natural healing to the body in a way that provides comprehensive care for the smallest parts that make us human. Its purpose is not only to bring us health, but to promote lasting health by working with the communication tunnels within the body.
Chiropractic combined with massage therapy offers the opportunity to reposition vertebrae, treat discs and focus on lower back pain and other joint ailments by working the muscles. Chiropractic massage also works by bringing toxins out of the body's soft tissues in a way that helps the body process and eliminate them effectively. The body is a reminder of its own ability to be healthy.

Massage therapy focuses on muscle condition and tension, restoring flexibility and increasing comfort in the body. It is often combined with physical therapy techniques and can be used to help recover from injuries. Massage therapy has the traditional concept of relaxing the body's muscles and body mechanisms through gentle soft tissue work.
