the philosophy
as holistic chiropractors, our approach is deeply rooted in the philosophy that the human body, and all life, is self-organizing and self-healing as a means to prosper and continue our kind. this unique property of life is called innate intelligence, and is orchestrated in us through the nervous system. the nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves throughout the body. the brain is the conductor in the orchestra of instruments that is our organs, muscles, glands, and fascia.
subluxation
one part of the human experience is overcoming challenges and adversity. this is what we call stress, and can be experienced physically, emotionally and spiritually, or chemically.
examples of stress include:
birth process
learning to crawl, walk, and run (babies/kids)
car accidents & sport injuries
desk job
life responsibilities (work, family, relationships)
inner criticism (anxiety)
processed foods
drinking alcohol
we humans either adapt to stress and grow from it, or it can accumulate within our body and remain unprocessed for years, or decades. stress and energy accumulate as spinal cord tension which interferes and inhibits the self-organizing and self-healing functions of the body. this is what we call a subluxation in chiropractic - it can manifest in a multitude of ways, and is ultimately what prevents people from living at their highest potential.
our approach
our hands are our tools. we listen for the body’s cues and signals of where cord tension, bound energy, and unprocessed stress are stored.
the chiropractic adjustment is one tool, but a two-person job. we are not a “treatment” designed to remove pain or force your body to do something. rather, the adjustment is an intuitive “dance” with your attention and active participation in conjunction with ours. together, we are bringing your awareness to and removing subluxation - areas of dissonance, interference, spinal cord tension, and unprocessed stress and trauma. from here your nervous system can process stored stress and trauma, allowing you - the conductor - to reestablish resonance and harmony in your body to release your innate healing potential.
the adjusting process can vary from light-touch to osseous, structural force applications. each adjustment is unique to what your system presents at that exact moment, such that each force application is tailored specifically to you - no less, no more. various approaches we use include: pneuma, bio-geometric integration, drop table, and craniosacral therapy.
