After 20 years of treating patients, I am still amazed at the outcomes of our patients.  Yet I often get questions about what Chiropractic is and what makes it work.  So here is part of my explanation from my website.

Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism, controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and nerves of the body. The vertebrae, which protect the nervous system, when misaligned or lose their normal motion, cause malfunction of the tissues and organs throughout the body.

Chiropractic medicine is a form of natural health care that focuses on treating a patient without the use of drugs or medicines.  Chiropractic physicians are primary healthcare providers licensed in all 50 states and are recognized by governmental healthcare programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, Workers' Compensation programs, and more.
