With Help From A Chiropractic Practice Inman Park Residents Can Enjoy Natural Health

By Luisa Sharpe


Medical advances continue to amaze all and sundry. Not a day seems to go by without some new treatment or remedy that can improve the life of people. Some diseases that were viewed as virtual death sentences only a decade or so ago are now routinely cured. There has been a change of perception, however. More and more people are seeking natural treatments. For example, when visiting a chiropractic practice Inman Park residents, Atlanta GA residents are routinely surprised at just how busy it is.

Some people think that chiropractors are opposed to modern medicine but the facts are that many chiropractors are also qualified medical doctors. They believe, however, that it is better to prevent disease than to treat it once it is manifested. They also believe that modern medicine is invasive and that invasion should be avoided if possible. They certainly do not shun the benefits of modern medicine.

According to chiropractors the immune system is the key to good health. In turn, the key to a strong immune system lies with the nervous system. All body systems are regulated by the nervous system and if something goes wrong there, the result is normally the failure of one or more body systems that then lead to disease. The nervous system is therefore seen as vital to a healthy immune system.

While chiropractors pay much attention to the nervous system, it remains the immune system that is the central focus. The immune system is the single most important system in the body when it comes to fighting disease. A strong immune system enables the body to fight disease before it can manifest itself in symptoms that can be recognized by the patient or a doctor.

It is amazing to note just how the popularity of chiropractors is soaring. People are looking for alternatives. Some turn to nature and others turn to medical methods that will not cause side effects and bodily invasions. Even the most respected medical scientists will admit that many modern medicines involve a risk and that they cause side effects that may cause a need for even more medication.

Chiropractic practitioners routinely use a procedure called spinal adjustment. The purpose of this treatment is to make sure that the spine is a hundred per cent straight. The treatment also aims at increasing the strength of the joint, thereby allowing greater flexibility. This aim is achieved by means of a specialized massage, although some practitioners use other methods to straighten the spine.

There are those that believe that chiropractors are nothing but quacks. The truth is that this approach to medicine has been the subject of many scientific studies and not a single study has found it to be potentially harmful in any way. The opposite is true but it is necessary to be experienced in the administration of the various treatment methods.

The increasing popularity of chiropractors may be indicative of a growing trend towards more natural remedies for medical problems. While modern medicine delivers miracles all the time, people want to turn back to those remedies that are natural, non invasive and effective nevertheless. Time will tell.
