What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is a health care approach that focuses on the spine and nervous system.  Chiropractic is based on the fact that your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body. It is a natural, drugless and preventative approach to good health. 

Dysfunction of the spine leads to irritation of the nervous system, which has a negative effect on health.  Misaligned vertebrae, called SUBLUXATIONS, are very common and often harmful.  Subluxations can irritate nerves affecting your balance, posture, resistance to disease and internal organ health. This prevents you from functioning at your best and often leads to sickness, fatigue and early aging. 

We understand that our bodies have a natural ability to heal themselves. As Doctors, we try and aid the body by improving neurological function and allowing the body to heal itself as it was designed to.

The most common type of care performed is called the “chiropractic adjustment.” The purpose of adjustments is to correct subluxations and improve nerve function.  Adjustments restore joint mobility in the spine that is often lost as a result of an injury. Injuries can be caused by a traumatic event (i.e. - car accident, lifting injury, etc) or through repetitive stresses (i.e. - prolonged sitting, poor posture, bad ergonomics, etc).

In either case, adjustments of the affected areas restore mobility, reduce pain, relax muscles and accelerate healing. We might also recommend exercises to strengthen weakened areas, and provide counseling on nutrition, stress management and lifestyle.

Chiropractic care is the natural choice to your health care needs, and is appropriate for all ages, from infants to senior citizens.  All the services offered at Eastside Life Chiropractic' are tailored to fit each patient's unique condition.

As an ICU nurse, I see patients in crisis everyday that have not managed their health. They did not listen to their bodies screaming at them and now they want a quick fix for years of abuse that they have done to themselves. I have come to understand more fully that we only have one body. We need to nourish and take care of it!

Wellness is a lifelong process that requires discipline and awareness. I am very grateful that chiropractic is part of my wellness plan. I need to fix the base of my problems and not just band-aid the ailments.

I really respect Dr. Hansen’s holistic approach and I am grateful that he doesn’t just treat his patients, but he also teaches them.
