Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic is a branch of the healing arts, and as a science is based on the premise that good health depends, in part, upon a normal functioning nervous system. While the brain is protected by the skull, the spinal cord is more vulnerable, covered by 24 moving vertebrae. When these bones lose their normal motion or position, they can irritate the nervous system, disrupting the function of the tissues or organs these nerves' control. This is called a vertebral subluxation.

Chiropractic is the science of locating these areas of spinal malfunction, the art of correcting them, and the philosophy of things natural. Our staff of Chiropractic Physicians treat a host of conditions including severe structural trauma resulting from auto-, work-related, sports or other injuries as well as headaches, annoying neck and back pain, limited range of motion, scoliosis, carpal tunnel syndrome and other musculo-structural malfunctions. Chiropractic care has also been effective in the treatment of asthma and allergies.

Dr. Bailey recently qualified to perform a technique known as 'spinal decompression'. This is a hot topic in chiropractic care for the conservative treatment of neck-arm and low back-leg pain as a surgical alternative. Here is a link to learn more about this treatment, developed by Dr. James Cox.
