Vertebral Subluxation = Spinal Nerve Interference
The purpose of chiropractic care is the correction of nerve interference. Nerve interference promotes sickness and disease. It robs our vitality and weakens our immune system.
The spinal column consists of twenty-four small bones called vertebrae. Seven of these are located in the neck. Twelve are found in the mid-back and five are in the lower back. The vertebrae stack one on top of the other, and when you look at them from front to back, they form a straight line.
It's very rare to find someone with a spine that's perfectly aligned. In most people, the spine curves slightly to the right or left and sometimes, one or more of the vertebrae are twisted or rotated.
Vertebral Subluxation
When the vertebrae are misaligned, the flow of messages from the brain to all the other cells in the body are distorted. This type of nerve interference creates dis-organization of bodily processes and dis-ease. This misalignment of the vertebrae can often exist undetected and slowly undermine one's health.
