Your Brain on Chiropractic

Chiropractic in Portland, OR has grown light years since the late 1800's. We now understand the complicated connections between spine, nerves and brain function. There are times when the Chiropractic adjustment is the best and only thing to really help someone... There are other times when it may be the worst and last thing the need.


We all have one thing exactly in common... gravity. When your spine works well, the spinal nerves typically work well allowing your internal organs to work well. But there is a bigger picture to see. ALL the joints of the body, when working well, get compressed by gravity and actually send electrical information to the brain. If your muscles and joints don't work the way they need to, nerves get irritated, internal organs dysfunction and most importantly...your brain becomes imbalanced. 


Now here's something to consider... What if the spinal problem is not a spinal problem at all but actually a brain problem. Is it possible for someone to get a Chiropractic adjustment and actually get worse? This is exactly the situation we consider when you are in our office. 

The details of all of this are mind-blowingly complicated. However, with dedicated and ongoing education in this field, you are in good hands with us. If I can help you, I'll tell you. If not, I'll tell you and provide the very best referral for your situation.
