Homeostasis is defined as a state of balance of the internal environment of the body that is maintained by dynamic processes of feedback and regulation. Chiropractors focus on the spine in relationship to the nervous system, which consists of your brain, spinal cord and spinal nerves. The nervous system controls all the systems in the body, such as immune, reproductive, digestive, and respiratory to name a few. If there is a compromise within the joints or structure of the spine, it will affect the communication line, resulting in nerve interference and unbalancing the bodys homeostasis. Chiropractors refer to the nerve interference as a vertebral subluxation complex.

Vertebral Subluxation Complexes (VSC) cause interference throughout the nervous system that involves the combination of spinal misalignments, irritated nerves, muscle spasms or weaknesses, spinal inflammation or scar tissue, resulting in abnormal spinal function, degenerative changes to the spine and nerves, and pain. Chiropractors alleviate the VSC by introducing a specific low force chiropractic adjustment to the spine or joint. Your body is released from the nervous interference, and your body is then allowed to function at its optimum homeostasis.

Chiropractic has been helpful in cases of headaches, earaches, seasonal allergies, asthma, carpal tunnel syndrome, immune deficiency, fibromyalgia, musculoskeletal injuries due to car accidents or falls, and so much more.
