They say the Chiropractic profession is often misunderstood, and many people have no experience with Chiropractors. I am one of them. Chiropractic is founded upon the premise that when spinal bones are functioning in normal motion and position, the central nervous system can deliver its vital energy for the proper function of the body’s tissues, organs and systems.
- Like Dentistry and regular check ups, Chiropractic involves regular check ups to identify subluxations in the spine, comparative to cavities in the mouth.
- Everyday occurrences can cause the spinal bones to lose their usual motion or position. This can set off a chain reaction affecting the vertebrae, nerves, muscles, soft tissues and results in degenerative changes throughout the body.
- Chiropractors are the only doctors trained to detect and correct subluxations through safe, gentle and specific adjustments.
What is Gonstead?
Named after Dr. C. S. Gonstead (1898-1978) the “Miracle Man” of Chiropractic. Gonstead’s technique became the “Hall Mark” for the entire profession of Chiropractic. With Gonstead’s background in mechanical engineering, he saw the human spine as an intricate engineering wonder and he studied it every chance he had. Gonstead’s work with thousands of spinal cases, his constant clinical studies of the spine, and his own innate knowledge of how the spine works, explains his ingenuity in finding, identifying and correcting subluxations no one else could.
The Gonstead system gives rise to a specific, definite approach, to every segment of the spinal column. The detailed analysis includes instrumentation, digital palpation, motion palpation, visualization, x-ray followed by adjusting the articulations of the spine by hand only!
I found Dr. Jason Epeneter of Carlsbad Health Within Chiropractor who is trained exclusively in the Gonstead system. This ensures that the principles outlined by Dr. Gonstead will be duplicated, the results achieved and satisfied patients will be the mission of Health Within Chiropractic!
