There are many ways to detect vertebral subluxations: from ¨Palpatation¨, which is the most common method, to Postural Analysis, X-rays, EMG (electromyogram) and Functional Advisory Body.
Chiropractic is defined as a «hands-on practice,» therefore Chiropractors use their hands to detect and correct vertebral subluxations, to maintene the Nervous Sistem working to the maximus to prevent the disease.
The nervous system controls all the systems, organs, tissues and cells of the body. Pressed vertebral subluxations create nerve root interference.
When there is nerve interference, defenses do not work 100% so we are «vulnerable» to getting sick. Many symptoms such as headaches, insomnia, sinusitis, athsma, allergies, tingling and numbness in hands and feet, as well as a variety of aches and pains in the body may occur as back, hip, lower back and neck pain.
