Chiropractic Science

Chiropractic is the science that is concerned with the relationship between the structure and the function of the human body.

Chiropractic is grounded in an appreciation and respect for the natural “inborn tendency” of the human body to try to maintain a state of good health. Chiropractic science is primarily concerned with the detection and correction of biomechanical and structural derangements that interfere with the inherent adaptive mechanisms of the body.

What is Wellness?

Rubin Chiropractic gives you a wellness approach, a vital link in 21st century health care. This is the approach to health care that recognizes and respects the inherent power of the body to heal itself, It is a conceptual shift away from disease treatment and toward health enhancement. Wellness care focuses on causes rather than treating effects.

Rubin Chiropractic emphasizes methods that remove blockages or obstacles to your body's inner wisdom. Wellness care may also include assistance with lifestyle management, nutrition guidance, exercise training and rehabilitation appropriate to individual needs.

Unlocking Your Potential

All technology and human research, including chiropractic, has its early, primitive stages. Just like all members of the health care sciences, results were measured by the reduction or elimination of pain, symptoms and diseases. During its infancy the profession was shaped by people who had tried traditional methods of healing without success, but then later found relief through chiropractic care.

More recently, the scientific community, now armed with an increased understanding of the human body’s potential, has turned its attention away from just getting rid of disease, and even beyond the prevention of disease, and has begun asking questions concerned with releasing more of the body’s natural health potential. Chiropractic has provided answers to many of the questions posed by the scientific community.

Scientific interaction with researchers and the World Health Organization (WHO), Sloan Kettering, the Rockefeller Institute, Harvard Medical School, and a variety of world class authors has created a broader understanding of the role of chiropractic as being instrumental in unlocking the fullest human potential in every individual-physically, mentally and socially.

Finally, as the scientific and lay communities increase their understanding of chiropractic care, more children and families utilize its services in an attempt to build a healthier society.

Vertebral Subluxation

According to Gray’s Anatomy: “It is the purpose of the brain and nerve system to control and coordinate the function of all the tissues, organs, and systems of the body.” It is therefore imperative to have a nerve system free of interference or damage.

Your care at the clinic focuses primarily on interferences to the nerve system that can be eliminated, resulting in improved function and better health.

While there are many things that can interfere with your nerve system, such as direct trauma and drugs, science has discovered a major interference to your nerve system called vertebral subluxation. This interference causes malfunction, abnormal behavior, and even an early death.

So while it is necessary to consult many professionals for health advice in order to attain optimum physical, mental, and social well-being, chiropractors are the only professional trained in the detection and correction of vertebral subluxation.
