3 Pillars of Chiropractic
Throughout our day-to-day lives the joints of the spine can become immobile or stuck. Chiropractors call these ‘stuck’ joints subluxations or fixations. Joints become fixated for three main reasons; Physical, Emotional, and Chemical stressors.
1) Physical Stress:
· Major Trauma: Accidents, Falls, Injuries, etc.
· Repetitive Trauma: Sitting, Head Tilting, Standing, Typing, etc.
2) Emotional Stress:
· Psychological Stress: Money, Relationships, Jobs, etc.
3) Chemical Stress:
· Toxins: Pollution, Processed Foods, Alcohol, Smoke, etc.
These three stressors, either alone or in combination, cause subluxations to occur in our spines. Subluxations cause our spines to function and move abnormally. Abnormal function of the spine causes pain, discomfort, and decreases our overall health by interfering with the nervous system. If subluxations go unchecked then the problems we have only perpetuate themselves over time.
For the most part it is very hard to live a life without one or all of these stressors weighing us down. Do yourself, your family, and your friends a favor a tell them to get their spines checked by their chiropractor. Not only will everyone start feeling better but we will start to achieve a new level of health that society might not have thought was possible.
Remember to: Give, Love, Do, and Serve.
