chiropractic care
Chiropractic is the science, philosophy, and art of balancing the spine and nervous system to achieve optimal function and performance. Treatments clear blockages in the spinal cord and nervous system that cause pain, misalignments, mechanical problems, disease, and dysfunction. The adjustment, the primary tool used in chiropractic, is a gentle force applied to the spine which takes pressure off the nerves and re-establishes the connection between the brain and the body. Adjustments, by nature, do not hurt. They occasionally produce a noise, which is merely the result of gas being released from the joint. Effective chiropractic starts with an understanding of each patient´s unique needs, body type, and lifestyle. Dr. Gerstin at Align Wellness Center is extremely well-trained and adept at customizing the most appropriate treatment plan for each individual. Techniques include:
