The nervous system is the first system to form in utero and coordinates all aspects of health in the body. The vertebrae (bones of the spinal column) surround and protect the delicate nervous system. Injury to the spine and nervous system is a condition called vertebral subluxation. A subluxation results in nervous system interference and maladaptive patterns. Subluxations can have physical, mental/emotional and chemical causes, and effects.

The chiropractic adjustment works to reestablish balance and preservation of health of the nervous system. The adjustments provided at Tree of Life Chiropractic, Nutrition, Health & Wellness can be either osseous or tonal, depending on the body’s need and the clients’ preference.

Often times our bodies require more than an adjustment or massage to get back in line and become what we remember. That is where functional medicine and additional testing comes in to help us identify underlying issues. At Tree of Life Chiropractic, Nutrition, Health & Wellness we have access to traditional lab tests (blood and metabolic panels) but also advanced testing (food allergy/sensitivity, DNA etc).

With each type of test we are able to determine more information and make a plan to move forward as a team with a clear vision of the end goal.
