Chiropractic Care is the Cornerstone of Our Holistic Approach
The nervous system is the communication pathway for all of the human body’s functions. Chiropractic care is a cornerstone to our holistic whole-body approach because it is a safe and effective way to remove any blockages to the nervous system and nerve flow. Once blockages are removed, necessary internal communication to the affected tissues – muscle, blood vessels or organ systems – is restored.
Dr. Vargas uses gentle, effective instruments and/or hands on adjustments to balance and stabilize your nervous system. Dr. Vargas has been trained in cranial adjusting... since 80% of our central nervous system is located in our cranium (head). This gentle and effective care can help to address 100% of your CNS to allow proper energy and message to flow throughout your body and organs.
How does it work?
We look at the whole picture
Like other health-care providers, we follow a standard routine to gain information about the patient. We consult, review the case history, conduct a physical examination, and we may request laboratory analyses and/or x-rays. Unlike other health-care providers, however, chiropractic physicians also conduct a careful analysis of the patient’s structure and pay particular attention to the spine. We also ask you about your life- Do you eat well? Exercise at all? How do you deal with stress? Do you have children? What do you do for work? And so on. It is important to note that chiropractors seek the origin of illness in order to eliminate it, instead of simply treating the symptoms.
We seek the origin of the problem
Using this information, a diagnosis is made. Included in the diagnosis is the probable reason for your pain or discomfort. It is important to note that chiropractors seek the origin of the illness in order to eliminate it-we do not simply treat the symptoms. If your roof is leaking, do you simply catch the drips in a bucket for years on end, or do you repair the roof to prevent it from leaking? Similarly, if the migraine headache you’ve had all week is being caused by misaligned vertebra and an irritated nerve, do you continue to take pain killers indefinitely, or do you realign the vertebra to prevent the pain? You get the picture.
We fix the origin of the problem
Chiropractors have a term for misalignments: subluxations. A vertebral subluxation is a misalignment of the bones that protect the spinal cord. It’s a leak in the roof. Or a kink in the wiring of your nervous system. The severity of the subluxation can vary, and there are a number of potential contributing factors that can be physical, emotional, mental, or chemical. The subluxation can be caused by any number of incidents, from birth trauma to an auto accident to simple repetition or over-use.
