3 Things You Don't Associate with a Tacoma Chiropractor (but should)

Do you suffer from recurring headaches? You should see a chiropractor.

Do you have a stiff neck? You should see a chiropractor.

Is your back sore? You should see a chiropractor.

...but that's all that chiropractors do, isn't it? Nope!

The central nervous system controls the body's vital organs and parts. The majority of the direction provided by the central nervous system is subconscious: you probably don't spend a great deal of your time actively telling your pancreas what to do. Therefore, when issues in posture and spinal positioning impact the central nervous system's communication, all sorts of problems can occur.

We call issues related to the spine "subluxations". They are nerve interference or damage that cause the body and mind to miscommunicate, misfunction, or invite disease. When we identify and remove spinal subluxations, we restore the body's ability to self-heal and self-manage.

Take a look at the chart above and skim through some of the symptons that potentially indicate malfunction or dis-ease. Are you surprised to see some of them there? Issues like asthma, anxiety, allergies, and even bowel issues and indigestion potentially stem from subluxations.

How do you know if you have subluxations?

There is no "at home" testing for subluxations. In fact, a general practitioner won't be able to help, either. A chiropractor is the only one who can tell you if you have subluxations.

Dr. Atkins, a Tacoma chiropractor, offers new patients a painless and simple way to understand if subluxations are the potential cause of the symptoms or dis-ease that they deal with. New patients visiting Dr. Atkins will find a straightforward, rapid testimg process that involves NO "crack and snap". In a single 45-minute appointment, patients will complete a series of non-invasive screenings and tests to help Dr. Atkins understand their unique situation. When those tests are complete, Dr. Atkins will be able to discuss the potential for removing the subluxation and improving your health. There is no "one size fits all" solution, so your 1-on-1 consultation is the best way to discover the potential to unlock your wellness and restore your body's optimal health.
