The Brain-Gut Connection: How Your Brain and Gut Health are Intertwined
Have you ever heard of the “second brain”? It’s not what you…
For over 30 years now, Dr. Paul has been helping patients of all ages enjoy the long-term benefits of chiropractic neurology care and functional wellness.
Chiropractic manipulative therapy is a highly effective rehabilitation tool utilized to improve mobility and overall function of joints of the spine and extremities. When spinal joints work better so does the central nervous system and the core muscle system. It also has great therapeutic value as a pain alleviation alternative for bones, joints, muscles, connective tissues as well as internal organs. A chiropractor with additional training as a functional neurologist may use this technique along with other brain based therapies and treatments like eye movement (oculomotor) training, soft tissue manipulation/massage, balance and timing strategies, lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise, vagal stimulations and others to improve overall neurological function. No one therapy stands alone as each can be synergistic to the others. A highly trained Chiropractic Neurologist knows how to combine and use these therapies to the best advantage of the patient.
A chiropractor often utilizes hands-on spinal manipulation together with other integrative functional methods to improve Neuroplasticity within the central nervous system to foster homeostasis and improved adaptive ability of the entire body especially of the musculoskeletal system which allows us to navigate in a gravity dependent environment.
Our chiropractor will improve your body’s physiological function by using his hands to administer a gentle high velocity low amplitude force to a fixated spinal or extra spinal joint. Instruments can also be used for spinal stimulation. Spinal manipulation is one way to deliver a local/peripheral somatosensory electrical stimulation (message) back to the central nervous system. By activating these electrical pathways in a joint or soft tissue and sending the electrical message back to the spinal cord and brain (sensory), the brain will respond by sending electrical impulses down the spinal cord and out to the tissues (motor) that were manipulated to change local muscle tone, blood flow, pain levels and thus mobility of the joints.
