Subluxations at Herndon Chiropractic & Acupuncture Care
Improving Your Body’s Alignment
Dr. Gurutrang Khalsa is a skilled chiropractor who provides specialized care focusing on treating subluxations, or misalignments of the spine. These misalignments can greatly impact the overall health and well-being of moms, families, and children. Through chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Khalsa can address these subluxations to restore proper alignment and function to the spine, allowing the nervous system to function optimally. This can improve communication between the brain and the rest of the body, positively affecting a wide range of health issues such as pain, stress, and immune function.
What Are Subluxations?
Subluxations are bones out of place, pinching nerves, causing malfunction. They are the result of vertebrae moving incorrectly and misaligning, interfering with communication along nerve pathways between brain and body.
Nerve Interference
A subluxation is a reaction to stress. Muscles spasm. Vertebrae jam. Nerves are obstructed. This disturbs the regulation and control of your body by distorting nerve communication and energy flow between brain, body, cells and organs.
Health Problems
Many health problems beyond neck, back and headache pain can be caused by underlying distorted nerve communications. For example, nerve interference between your brain and stomach: stomach problems.
Chiropractic Wellness
Your nervous system controls every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. Nerve signals travel through your spinal cord housed by your spinal column. So having a subluxation-free spine is essential for wellness enhancement.
Chiropractic Examinations and Adjustments
Only a chiropractic examination can reveal subluxations. And only chiropractic adjustments can naturally minimize their impact on your nervous system and vital energy flow. Chiropractic adjustments improve spinal motion, decrease nerve interference, and assist in restoring health.
