What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is the fastest growing natural health care profession in the world. Doctors of Chiropractic (DC's), specialize in finding, locating and removing a common condition known as Vertebral Subluxation.

A Vertebral Subluxation is a condition in which one or more of the twenty-four moveable bones of the spinal column is misaligned and interferes with the delicate nerves that exit between the spinal bones. This causes irritation to the nerve and impairs its ability to transmit or receive vital nerve messages from various parts of the body.

Subluxations are commonly caused by stress from poor posture, poor sleeping habits, slips and falls, vehicular accidents, sports impacts, strenuous exercise, work injuries, childhood falls, medication and substance abuse, and even the birth process.

Chiropractic treatments, called spinal adjustments, are comfortable, safe, and highly effective. People of all ages, including infants and the elderly, can receive chiropractic care to get healthy and stay healthy. The years of training and education allows Dr. Aldrich to determine if chiropractic care can benefit you and/or members of your family.

Many people don't realize that chiropractic care has an excellent record of success in helping more than neck and back pain, including conditions such as headaches, allergies, asthma, digestive disorders, and other organic health conditions, as well. Maintaining a healthy, well-aligned spine and normally functioning nervous system is perhaps the most overlooked key to worldwide health.
