The Principles of Chiropractic

  1. The body is a self-healing and self-regulating organism.
     
  2. The nerve system controls and coordinates all of the functions in the body.
     
  3. Any interference with the nerve system inhibits the body's ability to regulate and heal itself.
     
  4. Interference to the nerve system is most commonly caused by misalignment of the bones of the spine called "subluxations."
     
  5. "Subluxations" are most often caused by slips and falls, car accidents, stress, poor posture, poor sleep habits, sports impacts, birth process, etc.
     
  6. Maintaining a healthy and well-aligned spine enhances the body's ability to get and stay well.

Dr. Packer Asks some important questions of interest to Easton residents - Chiropractor Easton Dr. Packer Asks...

What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Easton folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Easton chiropractic practice.
