 HEADACHE
HeadachesMany patients find that the correction of their problem takes longer because their spinal problem has existed undetected for many years. Regardless of how you respond, enjoy the drug-free results millions have enjoyed by consulting a chiropractic doctor.

 STRESS
The chiropractic approach to stress is to help normalize the function of your nervous system by removing interference caused by the Vertebral Subluxation Complex. Finding the "weak links" in your spine and helping restore better function, can make a profound difference in your response to stress.

 DEGENERATION
DegenerationRegardless of age, when spinal damage goes uncorrected, the body deposits calcium on the surface of adjacent bones that aren't moving properly. If neglected long enough, this splinting effect can result in complete fusion. This worsening process is called Subluxation Degeneration and can occur throughout the spine. Researchers recognize several phases of spinal decay.

 SCIATICA
Sciatica is a severe pain in the leg caused from compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve. Sciatica often respond dramatically to the restoration of normal spinal function through chiropractic care.

 WHIPLASH
WhiplashInjuries to the neck caused by the sudden movement of the head, backward, forward, or sideways, is referred to as "whiplash". Consult a Doctor of Chiropractic before enduring constant headaches, depending upon addictive pain medication, or submitting to surgery!

 PREGNANCY
PregnancyChiropractic care can be quite helpful during all stages of pregnancy. Doctor DeMoss will take special precautions with you during your pregnancy. Modifications to the table or adjusting techniques are made during each stage of pregnancy. Pamper yourself and your baby with regular chiropractic checkups.

 NECK PAIN
Neck PainThe chiropractic approach to neck pain is to locate its underlying cause. This begins with a complete case history and thorough examination. Special attention is given to the structure and function of the spine, and its affect on the nervous system. With improved structure and function neck pain often diminishes or totally disappears - without addictive drugs or harmful side affects!

 VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION
Vertebral SubluxationA subluxation, or more precisely, the Vertebral Subluxation Complex, describes what happens when spinal bones lose their normal position and motion from stress, trauma, or chemical imbalances.

 CARPAL TUNNEL
Carpal TunnelThe "carpal" tunnel is formed by bones in the wrist. The median nerve, tendons, and blood vessels pass through this opening. If one or more of the bones forming this tunnel should collapse, inflammation, nerve pressure, and painful symptoms in the wrist area can result.

VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION
The Vertebral Subluxation Complex is the underlying cause of many health problems.

Nervous System Function
When there is no interference, your nervous system controls the healthy function of virtually every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body.

A subluxation, or the Vertebral Subluxation Complex, is a serious condition identified by its five parts:
  • Abnormal motion or position of spinal bones:
    (Spinal Kinesiopathology) The bones of the spine have lost their normal motion and position. This can restrict your ability to turn and bend. It sets in motion the other four components.

  • Abnormal nervous system function:
    (Neuropathophysiology) Improper spinal function can choke, stretch, or irritate delicate nerve tissue. The resulting nervous system dysfunction can cause symptoms elsewhere in the body

  • Abnormal muscle function:
    (Myopathology) Muscles supporting the spine can weaken, atrophy, or become tight and go into spasm.. The resulting scar tissue can change muscle tone, requiring repeated spinal adjustments.

  • Abnormal soft tissue function:
    (Histopathology) A rise in temperature from an increase in blood or lymph supply can result in swelling and inflammation.. Discs can bulge, herniate, tear; or degenerate. Other soft tissues may suffer permanent damage.

  • Abnormal function of the spine and body:
    (Pathophysiology) Bone spurs and other abnormal bony growths attempt to fuse malfunctioning spinal joints.. This spinal decay, scar tissue, and long-term nerve dysfunction can cause other systems of the body to fail.


What's the cause?

Subluxation, or more precisely, the Vertebral subluxation Complex, describes what happens when spinal bones lose their normal motion or position from stress, trauma or chemical imbalances.Automobile collisions, improper lifting, drugs, alcohol, emotional stress, chemical imbalances, and long periods of sitting can all cause the Vertebral subluxation Complex.Instead of just treating your symptoms, your chiropractor is primarily interested in detecting, reducing, and correcting the Vertebral subluxation Complex.

Chiropractic Breaking News
Many of the pain-sensing nerves of the spine are in the facet joints, the two interlocking "fingers" at the back of each spinal bone. The normally smooth surfaces on which these joints glide, can become rough, irritated, and inflamed.
