But, I Have No Pain in Wilmington NC

My claim that subluxation reduction in Wilmington NC could have a beneficial impact on a human being's potential is not just an opinion.

One such article was recently published in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research titled: Objective Physiologic Changes and Associated Health Benefits of Chiropractic Adjustments in Asymptomatic Subjects: A Review of the Literature by Sean M. Hannon, BA, DC.

Why it matters in Wilmington NC

It is significant that Dr. Hannon's review of the literature uncovered over forty studies where asymptomatic patients experienced objective health benefits under chiropractic care. Dr. Hannon's conclusion is a positive statement on the effects of chiropractic on human potential and healing:

"Improved function can be objectively measured in asymptomatic individuals following chiropractic care in a number of body systems often by relatively non-invasive means. It is plausible that chiropractic care may be of benefit to every function of the body and have the potential for long-term, overall health benefit to those receiving chiropractic care."

In the health care model that my parents were raised in, the same model I was raised in, and the same current primary health care model practiced today finds it unusual to "treat" the body if there are no symptoms present.

It has been my philosophy that the body is a self-healing being that is always adapting to its environment. The more constructive forces we subject ourselves too the more adaptive we become and the probability of health is the result. Some constructive forces are; chiropractic adjustments allowing 100% function of the nerve system supplying 'force' to the cells, whole-food nutrition supplying the cells with required nutrients, aerobic and resistive exercises supplying oxygen to the cells, H20 for hydration of the cells and of course rest and quality sleep.

The more destructive forces we subject ourselves too the less adaptive we become over time and dis-ease or lack of health becomes the result. Some destructive forces are; physical stress (i.e. gravity, poor posture, heavy lifting, pregnancy, excessive sitting, sports, kids carrying book bags with excessive weight, etc…), mental stress (i.e. experiencing a family death, divorce, financial concerns, job related concerns, etc…), chemical stress (i.e. drugs-both prescribed and recreational, too many man-made foods-partially hydrogenated fats, processed food, refined sugars, etc…)

The fundamentals of chiropractic philosophy just makes sense.
