Video Transcript

"People often wonders what you go to see a chiropractor for and what you need chiropractor care for. Again if we are talking about lower back or pelvic areas again pain is usually the most common thing. Especially in this country lower back pain and problems is a very large problem for people. Again we are dealing with pain, joint pain, back pain, muscular pain, but also hip pain and leg pain as it comes down from the lower back. There is also certain levels of dysfunctioning in the nervous system that also innervates the body systemically and so all the organs that are in this area, the bladder, the bowels, the stomach, the digestive organs and all these different kinds of things, things can happen that this nervous system does innervate which again those people who have been through chiropractic practice for some time start to realize it's not just about pain, it is about the whole system working better. The nervous system innervates everything and so of course in addition to the pain and the muscular and soft tissue, that kind of thing we also have systemic problems that people end up coming to chiropractors for and have good results."
