“Don’t slouch, son!” said our mothers. This wisdom runs deep and concerns the Foundation of Alignment. Posture and alignment play into our lives in so many profound ways. Our posture is a window to our emotional underpinnings. It is critical in our relationship to gravity. Gravity can exact a huge toll on our health. Changes in posture change our internal space for organs; breathing and digestion, for example, can be greatly affected.

Perhaps the key wisdom behind our moms desire for our better posture is the innate sense that improving posture simply improves our lives. It does. There has been much research on our spine and nervous systems. Their well-being is absolutely critical to our health. Chiropractic is the predominant science that works with the relationship of our spine and nervous system – posture, alignment, and movement. These qualities not only help us get around in the world, they dictate the quality of our health.

Question:

“Chiropractic?” you say. “Isn’t that about back pain, neck pain, headaches and something you do after a car accident?”

Answer:

The answer is YES and NO. Yes, people come to chiropractors with these pains and many others besides. No, we don’t treat any of those pains.

Question:

“You don’t treat pain? Then why do so many people talk about how much better they feel after visiting their chiropractor?”

Answer:

What chiropractors do improves your nervous system’s ability to restore your health. By reducing the stress on your body we help you heal you. It just so happens that when together we do our jobs, your body typically experiences less pain, fewer illnesses, greater energy and other positive effects. Isn’t that a wonderful move in the direction of optimal health?
