What Are Subluxations?

Subluxation:

  1. A minor misalignment of the segment of the spine (vertebrae), causing an irritation to a nerve, with a loss of normal function.
  2. An interruption of communication from the brain to any cell, tissue, or organ in the body.

A subluxation is a condition in which one or more vertebrae of the spine are out of alignment. This places pressure on the spinal nerve and affects the normal transmission of nerve impulses. The function and healing process of vital parts of the body is often affected. The purpose of the chiropractic adjustment is to return the subluxated vertebrae to as normal of a position as possible. This will in turn remove pressure off the nerve and restore nerve function to the affected area. If detected early, a subluxation may respond well to chiropractic care with an excellent chance for a complete and painless recovery. Eliminating subluxations can restore your health!
