About Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a safe, gentle and effective means of assessing and correcting spinal malfunction (Vertebral Subluxation) and ensuring that your spine and nervous system are able to function at their optimum.

At Lake Road Chiropractic we utilise the most up to date research and techniques designed to make chiropractic care an effective, safe and enjoyable part of everyone’s health maintenance routine.

Please read on to learn more about the causes of subluxations & treatments available at Lake Road Chiropractic.

Vertebral Subluxations

• Occur with the misalignment of the vertebrae


• Cause interference to the messages passing along the spinal cord and nerves


• Prevent nerve messages from getting to the rest of the body effectively, affecting your health


• Can cause pain, decreased function, and poor general health

Subluxations are often ASYMPTOMATIC (i.e. rarely cause noticeable signs, such as pain or discomfort) in the early stages. Over time the subluxation becomes more complicated, progressing from a relatively minor problem to a gradual reduction in function of the body and diminished levels of health. Long-term subluxations can result in permanent spinal damage. Research has shown that degenerative changes can begin within 2 weeks of a subluxation occurring in the spine.

Causes of Vertebral Subluxation

Physical

• Childbirth


• Bumps


• Falls


• Accidents


• Repetitive activities

Chemical

• Drugs


• Artificial Colours


• Preservatives


• Alcohol


• Smoking

Emotional

• Stress

• Depression


• Emotional pressure

As we are all exposed to the factors that cause subluxations it is essential that we all have regular adjustments to maintain optimal health regardless of our age.

Long Term Subluxations

If subluxations have been present for a period of time you usually require a specific treatment plan consisting of regular adjustments, exercises, stretches and time to overcome the problem and for the body to heal. Once the specific treatment plan is completed we always recommend maintaining this improved state of function and health.
