To some people, Chiropractic is a search for greater health and wholeness for themselves and their families that goes beyond the treatment of symptoms. They feel that health care should not be passively waiting until disease strikes - but active health maintenance before problems arise. Others already have health problems and are unhappy with the prospect of taking powerful prescriptions and over-the-counter drugs that often do little more than treat the symptoms while the cause of their problem remains. And still others, tired of drugs and surgery, perhaps told to "learn to live with it," are searching for something else.

When  the vertebrae and discs in the spine lose their normal motion or position, referred to as a Vertebral Subluxation, they can cause endangering stress or "interference" to the spinal cord and spinal nerves, which acts as the main line of intelligence for the whole body. This in turn disrupts the function of the tissues or organs these nerves control. Subluxations have been shown to be the underlying cause of many of the unwanted health conditions that people suffer from every day.
