At General Chiropractic Care we focus on the chiropractic perspective of health and disease emphasizing two fundamental concepts:
- The structure and condition of the body influences how the body functions and its ability to heal itself.
- The mind-body relationship is instrumental in maintaining health and in the healing processes.
Our philosophy includes:
- emphasis on patient recuperative abilities rather than surgery
- recognition that dynamics exist between lifestyle, environment and health
- understanding the cause of illness in order to eliminate it, rather than simply treat symptoms
- recognition of the centrality of the nervous system and its intimate relationship with the capacities of the human body
- balancing benefits versus risks of clinical interventions
- recognition of the primary importance of monitoring progress closely through appropriate diagnostic procedures
- a patient-centered, hands-on approach focused on influencing function through structure
- focus on early intervention emphasizing timely diagnosis and treatment of conditions that are wholly functional and reversible
