Chiropractic and Nervous System Function of the Body
The nervous system is a key component to optimal health and healing. The nervous system function controls and coordinates almost every cell, tissue, and organ. These tissues and systems are within the human body. When the nervous system is under pressure, pain and disability can result. This can happen in the spine, and also in other parts of the body as well.
Chiropractic care focuses on the nervous system improvement and function with spinal alignment. This can help heal the compromised body parts. The goal of the chiropractic adjustments is to correct the structural imbalances. Chiropractors restore nerve flow by creating a sound spinal structure. When nerve function is optimal then the body will begin to heal. The chiropractic adjustments will also help it regain normal range of motion without pain. Often it takes many consecutive treatments to reach the goal of normal alignment. Furthermore, the pinched nerve or inflamed area will return to a pain-free condition. The spine and nervous system must be “in balance” in order for proper feedback. The feedback occurs when the body and brain communicate, and the body can maintain improvement in good health.
Pain and the Nervous System Function
In medicine pain relates to a sensation that hurts. If you feel pain it hurts, you feel discomfort, distress and agony, depending upon the severity of it. Feelings of pain can range from mild and occasional to severe and constant. It might be a throbbing pain – a pulsating pain. The pain could have a pinching sensation, or a stabbing one. Only the person who is experiencing the pain can describe it. Pain is a very individual experience and when someone has chronic pain it may affect them. Furthermore, it may reap havoc on the nervous system.

Restoration of Nervous System Function through Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic care addresses the restoration and preservation of health. It also focuses attention on the spinal subluxation. Chiropractic techniques when used and can correct the spinal subluxation. There may be other procedures used based on the best available empirical evidence. A direct relationship exists between spinal alignment and mechanical function. The spinal nerves become pinch and inflamed as a result of the improper mechanics. It is the chiropractor’s responsibility is to restore the vertebral function and motion. In conclusion chiropractic may have a improvement effect on the patient’s body.
