American Chiropractic
Chiropractic means „treat with the hand“ („Cheir“ = Greek: the hand). With special chiropractic healing grips malpositions of the vertebrae are corrected, in the Chiropractic it is called adjust. The so freed nerves, are again conductive, let energy flow. Tension is released and the body can regain its natural posture.
Importance of nerves and nerve tracts in chiropractic care
The human body is crisscrossed by nerve cords which, starting from the brain, supply the organs of the body with vital impulses. These nerve tracts run through the internal cavity of the spine and exit in pairs between the vertebrae on both sides. The body’s functions are controlled by this complex system of impulse conduction.
Displacements of the pelvis and vertebrae cause constrictions at the nerve exits of the spine, and thus can constrict the branching nerves (nerve roots). Back pain, headaches, tension, sciatica and limited mobility are often the result.
