What is Chiropractic?


Chiropractic is based on two premises:


• the body is a self healing organism


• the nervous system is the Master system of the body. The main goal of your Chiropractor is to reduce the interference to your body's inborn ability to heal itself.


• the spine not only supports most of the body, it works as a "switchboard" for the nervous system. Nerves, connected to all organs, muscles and every part of the body, exit the spine between each vertebrae. Signals from these nerves control the body's organs, all senses, and life itself.

What do Chiropractors do?


Chiropractors find and release areas of the spine that are out of balance and putting tension on the nervous system. These areas are called subluxations. With an adjustment the nervous system will work with greater ease so you can perform and function better.

What is  a Subluxations?


A subluxations is a spinal misalignment that causes nerve interference between the brain and the body. When nerve function is interfered with-muscles, blood vessels and organs may malfunction. This can produce pain, restrictive motion, degenerative changes or ill health.

What is a Chiropractic Adjustment?


A gentle specific and controlled pressure that restores the spines balance and relieves tension in the nervous system. Adjustments will release the subluxations in your spine.

Once I Start Seeing a Chiropractor, How Long Do I Have To Go?


It depends how you want to use it. Chiropractic can be used as a treatment of a specific ailment or you can choose to use it as a way of maintaining and improving your overall health and wellness. The first choice limits your time and benefits. The second gives you the opportunity to experience greater health and well being over time.

What Makes Us Different?


In our luxurious atmosphere at Life Stiles we share with you our excellent team of massage therapists. Enjoy an aromatic steam shower either before or after your massage to complement your experience of chiropractic and massage. Chiropractic and massage therapy, used in combination, form a powerful healing approach that addresses your pain on many levels. Whether your pain is the result of traumatic injury, overuse or stress, chiropractic and massage combined can greatly speed your return to a pain-free, productive life.

Chiropractic Supports Massage


If you are seeking massage therapy for pain but find your pain persists, recurs or even worsens after your massage, chiropractic could help in these ways:


• if your pain involves a subluxations, chiropractic adjustment may give immediate relief as your joint is restored to alignment and mobility
• you may find that surrounding soft tissue heals quickly once it is no longer subjected to the stress of misaligned joints
• the joint movement in chiropractic adjustments can sometimes relax deep layers of soft tissue that can be difficult to reach with massage

Massage Supports Chiropractic


You can benefit in a number of ways by adding massage therapy to your chiropractic care program.
• recovery is normally faster and more complete when you address multiple components of your pain
• chiropractic treatment often proceeds more easily, with less discomfort, when soft tissue has been relaxed with massage
• adjustments frequently last longer when muscle tension is released that might otherwise pull your joints out of alignment again.

 

Posture Analysis

 

It’s clear that posture analysis and correction must be a part of every wellness, fitness and performance program.  Every core muscle is involved in maintaining posture.  Studies show that posture affects the quality and length of a person’s life, so posture must be a part of every wellness program.  Abnormal posture pre-loads muscles and tendons in a negative way, and changes the person’s biomechanics.  So, posture detection and correction must be a part of every fitness plan. 


With photos taken in our office, we use Posture Pro software to analyze your posture and recommend exercises and treatment that will correct any postural issues.
