We are thrilled to provide you with timely and pertinent information you can use every day. Feast and enjoy! Let us know what you think. A subluxation means a slight dislocation (misalignment) or biomechanical malfunctioning of the vertebrae (bones of the spine). These disturbances may irritate nerve roots and blood vessels which branch off from the spinal cord between each of the vertebrae. This irritation may cause pain and dysfunction in muscle, lymphatic and organ tissue, as well as imbalance in the normal body processes.
In your own words, please explain your reason for seeking chiropractic care, and any initial complaints. What advice would you give to a friend, co-worker or loved one who was considering taking a step toward better health through chiropractic? And finally, how has chiropractic made a difference in your life?
In simplest terms, a subluxation a.k.a. Vertebral Subluxation) is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves. Spinal nerves are the nerves that come out from between each of the bones in your spine. This pressure or irritation on the nerves then causes those nerves to malfunction and interfere with the signals traveling over those nerves. How does this affect you? Your nervous system controls and coordinates all the functions of your body.
This is a representation of one type of subluxation. A subluxation, as defined by the Association of Chiropractic Colleges is: "A subluxation is a complex of functional and/or structural and/or pathological articular changes that compromise neural integrity and may influence organ system function and general health."

I love the care provided here! My son goes all the time and I go occasionally because of neck pain. Fixed every time!

I am so sad to have moved away from Dr. Janet. I have tried many other chiropractors since and none come close to her. Her unique way of hand adjusting my neck is my favorite and i miss her magical hands so much.

I had been to several chiropractors prior to Dr. Janet and not one comes even close to her effectiveness. It's not just her unique adjustment technique that keeps me healthy and dancing at 44 years old but her wisdom, advice and kindness that I cherish. She truly takes a holistic approach to all things health related, all with positivity and a sense of humor. Highly, highly recommended!

Our whole family loves Dr. Janet! She is wonderful with children - very kind, gentle and naturally intuitive in how to approach them. She treats both of my daughters as well as my husband and I. Her adjustments almost feel like a massage, but don't let that fool you - a few hours later you can feel the power of the adjustment! While she helps us stay healthy and strong in general - she was of particular help when me and my girls were rear-ended, and had terrible whiplash! I also love talking with Dr. Janet - she really stays current in her own education and has a lot of knowledge about health in general!
