This is the original tenant of Chiropractic.
The spine is made up of independent vertebrae that allow the body to move, twist and bend throughout the activities of the day. The spine also houses and protects the delicate central nervous system that coordinates and controls the communication between the brain and every cell, tissue and organ in the body. These vertebrae can become misaligned or even have reduced joint range of motion, called "subluxations" that cause inflammation of the joint capsules and irritation of the nervous system which alters the communication and function of the signals sent along the nerve. This can lead to loss of proprioception, discomfort, pain or even malfunctions in the end target tissues over time.
