Chiropractic Care
Philosophy
My philosophy on body work stems from the works of Janda, biotensegrity models, fascial line theory, and SFMA/DNS principles.
First off, every body is unique. Structurally, genetically, and metabolically. With that, having the understanding that each body needs a different treatment as well as unique rehabilitative care plan.
Each person has developed postural behaviors and movement behaviors through childhood and their adult lives, keeping those patterns until met with an obstacle/resistance (aka pain or mobility issues). That segment then starts responding to the change in force and motion. These areas can be classified by each joint region, and the concept is called regional interdependence.
Spinal adjustments are a tool to induce movement in a particular vector of a joint. This should be a tool needed to help an area of restriction or fixation, however if a region is too mobile or has too much movement a spinal adjustment may not be the best treatment. Stability and strength training would be optimal.
Quick Chiro Bio
Chiropractors and bone-setters have been practicing their techniques for over thousands of years, and we continue to do so because of the desired results. Spinal adjustments are a tool a chiropractor utilizes, but is not the only aspect of chiropractic care.
A spinal adjustment is a manual thrust or external force in order to increase joint motion by removing joint adhesions, improve range of motion, and provide neurological afferentation. Not only are there mechanical benefits to this, there is also a neurological effect that extends to the spinal cord and brain.
Chiropractic care also consists of soft tissue mobilization, therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises and modalities such as laser therapy and TENs .
