The Complete Chiropractic Centre – Barnstaple, North Devon
People usually seek a Chiropractor for pain caused by accident, injuries at work, poor posture or sports injuries, but it is not only back pain and leg pain that are eased with Chiropractic care.
It is safe, effective treatment for many muscle, joint and nerve problems in people of all ages.
The central nervous system is the body’s control system which co-ordinates most functions in the body. The spinal cord and the nerve roots that exist around each spinal bone can easily be damaged by stress or trauma. Improper motion of vertebrae can cause nerve irritation this is why Chiropractors work primarily with the spine, to remove interference that may be causing pain or impairing normal health and activities.
Treatment consists of gently unlocking the stiff joints with manipulation by hand. The adjustments help return the joint to normal function, create reflexes that reduce muscle spasm and help to relieve pain and ill health.
