Chiropractors help many people with a variety of health concerns. Aches and pains are signs that your body isn’t working correctly. Your brain, spinal cord and all your nerves control how your body works. Physical, chemical or emotional stresses produce a defensive posture. Muscles contract, locking spinal joints that pinch or irritate nearby nerves. Lack of nervous system integrity sets the stage for disease and ill health. A thorough examination helps chiropractors find these subluxations. Applying a precise force to stuck spinal joints helps the body correct itself. Health usually returns as repeated visits restore nervous system integrity. That’s why chiropractic care has helped millions get well and stay well.

Your Chiropractor Asks some important questions of interest to Melbourne residents - Chiropractor Melbourne Your Chiropractor Asks...

Do nerves actually get pinched?
Chiropractors recognise two types of nerve disorders involved in nerve interference. The least common is a pinched nerve that diminishes nerve supply to an affected organ or tissue. More common is the irritated nerve (facilitative lesion) which overexcites nerve communications to an affected organ or tissue. Chiropractic care has been shown to help with both types.
Are aches and pains good or bad?
While aches or pains may be unpleasant, they're merely warning signs. As a Melbourne chiropractor, I see this all the time. The pain is not the problem! It just means a limitation has been reached and something needs to change. That's when we get to work correcting the underlying cause.
