Video Transcript

"People often wonder what someone might go see a Chiropractor for. There are many things that Chiropractic or Chiropractors treat. Most common of course is pain. As in any health care entity these days. People are going to go there because they are in some kind of pain. And so, in the pain realm, we can treat anything from headaches to neck pain to middle back pain to lower back pain to extremity pain. The people that have actually been through the Chiropractic process for some length of time, start to realize that actually, because the nervous system again encompasses every portion of your body and every single cell, they have a tendency to realize that as their getting treated for let's say a pain symptom, eventually they start to notice systemic things that start to clear up. For instance, some people will come in for a middle back problem, and all of a sudden they're starting to breathe better or their asthma is starting to clear up. And so again the nervous system not only affects pain fibers, but it also starts to innervate more systemic situations. So really there's an unlimited potential for Chiropractic. Yes we do treat pain, but, we also do treat and help to treat other systemic problems as well."
