How Chiropractic Works
The Science Behind Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a holistic healthcare approach that focuses on the body's ability to heal itself. Backlund Chiropractic and Holistic Health is a leading provider of chiropractic services, dedicated to improving the well-being of our clients.
Understanding Your Spine
Your spine is a fantastic structure that provides support and protection for your nervous system. The nervous system controls every function in your body, from movement to organ function. A misalignment in the spine, known as a subluxation, can disrupt this communication, leading to a variety of health issues.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care offers a range of benefits that go beyond treating symptoms. Some of the key advantages include:
- Pain Relief: Chiropractic adjustments can alleviate pain in the back, neck, joints, and muscles.
- Improved Mobility: By restoring proper alignment, chiropractic care helps enhance flexibility and range of motion.
- Enhanced Nervous System Function: By removing subluxations, chiropractic adjustments improve the communication between your brain and body.
- Boosted Immune System: A healthy spine supports a strong immune system, helping your body fend off illnesses.
Types of Chiropractic Techniques
At Backlund Chiropractic and Holistic Health, our team of skilled chiropractors utilizes various techniques tailored to your individual needs. Some of the techniques we specialize in are:
1. Spinal Manipulation
This technique involves using controlled force to restore proper spinal alignment. Our chiropractors are highly trained in spinal manipulation, ensuring the utmost care and safety.
2. Flexion-Distraction
Flexion-distraction technique is an excellent choice for individuals with disc-related issues. It gently stretches and decompresses the spine, relieving pressure on the spinal discs.
3. Activator Technique
The activator technique utilizes a handheld instrument to deliver precise adjustments. This method is gentle and suitable for patients who prefer a low-force approach.
4. Gonstead Technique
The Gonstead technique involves thorough examination and analysis of your spine before making precise adjustments. It focuses on finding and correcting misalignments with great precision.
