Vertebral Subluxation

Doctors of Chiropractic correct Vertebral Subluxations. In simple terms, a Vertebral Subluxation is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of position and/or lose normal motion and create interferences in the communication between the brain and the body. Your nervous system (brain, spinal cord and nerves) is what controls and coordinates all the functions of your entire body. Spinal nerves come off the spinal cord between each of the bones in your spine and travel to all the organs, muscles and tissues of your body.

Vertebral subluxations interfere with the signals traveling over these nerves. These subluxations prevent the body from functioning at its best and may make a person more susceptible to physical, emotional and chemical stress, leading to sickness, weakness, fatigue and early aging. Vertebral subluxations can also affect balance, posture and spinal health leading to pain and premature degeneration. Through precise analysis, the chiropractor can locate and gently correct or reduce subluxations in the spine.

At Stone Family Chiropractic Center , we use the latest technology available to our profession. Through advanced computerized testing, we are able to detect subluxations and measure their severity. Not only does this technology assist us in accurately determining the extent of care that a patient needs, it also allows us to track the results of our care.
