Chiropractic, both ancient and scientific.
Chiropractic is a natural healing method that is known throughout the world. The word chiropractic is derived from the Greek word “cheiros”: hand and “pratto”: to practice. So it means “practicing by hand.
Chiropractic and medical science
Chiropractic is a medical science based on traditional medical knowledge. Chiropractic, however, differs from traditional medicine in the way the knowledge is applied.
The chiropractor achieves healing by influencing the nervous system. People do not get sick the moment the symptoms appear. The symptoms have a cause. In chiropractic we locate and treat this very cause. This also reduces or eliminates symptoms over time.
Your spine and nervous system are inseparable. And to function optimally, your body depends entirely on these two. When your spine is not in tip-top shape, your nervous system cannot function properly. This can have a variety of effects on your health.
Pain and functioning
Most people only come to the chiropractor when they feel pain. Often there is damage by then. In fact, only ten percent of our nervous system consists of “pain nerves. When you feel pain, it means that the organ in question is only thirty-five percent functional. Therefore, anyone who wants to be one hundred percent healthy will benefit from regular, preventive checkups by the chiropractor.
Indirect complaints such as headaches, poor vision, ear infections, allergies, asthma and even apparent fertility problems can also indicate a malfunctioning nervous system.
