Chiropractic

In our practice, based in Asheville, NC, manipulation of the spine as well as other parts of the body such as knees, hips, feet, shoulders, wrists and elbows are performed in a very effective way, realigning joints and reducing inflammation. These techniques include the use of hands-on manipulation as well as low-force instruments and gentle breath-assisted adjustments for bone realignment. Other techniques include different types of pressure points, rubbing points and myofascial work for muscles, tendons and joints. Spinal manipulation relieves pressure on joints, increases mobility, reduces inflammation, and improves nerve function and is used to treat conditions such as allergies, menstrual cramps and headaches as well as neck, back, leg, and arm pain.

With Holistic Chiropractic we look at the entire structure including bones, muscles, tendons and joints as an interrelated whole. Every part influences many other parts, and we treat the body while considering all these relationships. This makes for much more effective treatment and quicker resolution of your problems through consultation with a holistic chiropractor.

In addition we look at the relationship between organs, body chemistry and structure. These are related through the effects of the nervous system and other connections, such as the Chinese energy meridians in Chinese Meridian therapy. Not to be ignored are the effects of emotions on the body, and the health of the brain and organs on the emotions. As a skilled chiropractic practitioner, I look at the myriad of all these relationships in order to better understand your body and you as a total being.
