What is the outcome of addressing vertebral subluxation in chiropractic care?

Addressing vertebral subluxation in chiropractic care is fundamentally aimed at improving nervous system function. When chiropractic adjustments are made to correct subluxations, it helps restore proper alignment and motion to the spine, which, in turn, can lead to enhanced neurophysiological activity. The spine and nervous system are intimately connected; subluxations can interfere with nerve pathways and disrupt communication between the brain and the body’s systems.

By correcting these misalignments, chiropractic care seeks not only to relieve pain but also to optimize overall health and well-being. Improved nervous system function can contribute to enhanced body coordination, reduced stress response, and better physical performance. Thus, the emphasis on restoring vertebral alignment aligns with the broader goals of chiropractic philosophy, which maintain that a well-functioning nervous system plays a crucial role in maintaining health.
