Our Philosophy
Our perspective on health and disease emphasizes the fundamental
concepts that the structure and condition of the body, especially the
nervous system, influence how the body functions and its ability to
heal itself and prevent injury, illness and disease.
Our philosophy (and Chiropractic Philosophy in general) includes:
- emphasis on patient recuperative abilities rather than surgery
- recognition that dynamics exist between lifestyle, environment and health
- understanding the cause of illness in order to eliminate it, rather than simply treat symptoms
- recognition of the centrality of the nervous system and its intimate relationship with the capacities of the human body
- balancing benefits versus risks of clinical interventions
- recognition of the primary importance of monitoring progress closely through appropriate diagnostic procedures
- a patient-centered, hands-on approach focused on influencing function through structure
- focus on early intervention emphasizing timely diagnosis and treatment of conditions that are wholly functional and reversible
Our chiropractic philosophy blends an effective combination of science,
conviction, critical thinking, open-mindedness, and appreciation of the
natural order of things. We focus on the establishment and maintenance
of a healthy nervous system, which is most conducive to functional
well-being and overall health.
