Q

What is the core Chiropractic Paradigm?

A

1) The body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism
2) The nervous system is the master system that regulates and controls all other organs and tissues and relates the individual to his or her environment.
3) Spinal biomechanical dysfunction in the form of vertebral subluxation complex may adversely affect the nervous system’s ability to regulate function.
4) The central focus of the doctor of chiropractic is to optimize patient health by correcting, managing or minimizing vertebral subluxation through the chiropractic spinal adjustment.
