Chiropractic Myth #3: Chiropractors Only Treat Back Pain

Chiropractic is not just for back pain

Back pain is what Chiropractors are known for, but the root of Chiropractic is much deeper than that.  Chiropractors affect your spinal column, which in turn affects your nerves and tissues.  This allows us to help your body heal itself so you can develop Wellness from Within.  Some of the non soft tissue conditions we can help treat are: migraine headaches, ear infections, colic, ADD, sinus issues, common cold, dysmenorrhea  (painful menses), ulcers and bowel complications, just to list a few. 

Within the spine, we have two types of branches of our spinal nerves.  The back branch is the one most people are familiar with which causes headaches, neck pain and back pain.  But what isn’t talked about is the front branch which controls all the functions of every organ, tissue and cell.  If these nerves are not functioning properly, it can create imbalances within the body which overtime can create symptoms, illness and have the body function under par.
