The Cottage...A Family Chiropractic Center
What is Vitalistic Chiropractic?
Most people go to the doctor because they think they have something they shouldn't have and
they want to get rid of it. But, in our office, we believe that the problem when you aren't
problem is really that you have LOST something you need to be healthy and happy. You see,
health (also called ease) is your natural state. You were created to be healthy! So, if you are
experiencing anything other than ease, it is usually because you have simply lost something that
is necessary for you to maintain ease, or health.
There are three things that you need to understand for this to make any sense to you. The
first is that everything is changing, including your body. Your body is made up of trillions of
cells, all performing thousands of functions at any given moment. So, it is impossible for you to
be the same person right now as you were when you woke up this morning. That being said, at
the end of the day you will either be a little bit stronger or a little bit weaker. The goal,
obviously, is to get a little bit stronger everyday.
What determines if you get stronger instead of weaker is how well connected your brain and
body are. Your brain and nerve system control EVERYTHING that happens in your body. The
nerve system is in contact with every single tissue, organ and cell in your body and the health
of those tissues, organs and cells is dependent upon the connection that they maintain with
your brain. Without a clear brain-body connection, there is no harmony, no ease, no health!
So, every day your body gets either a little bit stronger or a little bit weaker. In order to get
stronger instead of weaker each day, you must have a clear neurological connection between
your brain and your body. In order to have a clear neurological connection between your
brain and your body and keep growing stronger every day, your spine must be properly aligned
and functioning normally. Because of the very intimate connections between your spine and
your nerve system, if you lose normal alignment or function in your spine, you will also partially
lose the connection between your brain and your body. This is extremely important because
without proper communication, you lose the ability to purposefully organize all of the various
parts of your body to work together harmoniously and with EASE. In other words, you get
weaker instead of stronger everyday.
At The Cottage our goal is simple; to help restore and maintain alignment and function in your
spine, or order to re-establish and maintain the neurological connections between your brain
and your body, so that you can resume purposefully organizing all of the parts of your body to
work harmoniously together. When this happens, you can finally begin healing by consistently
growing stronger and healthier every day. And as this process occurs, you will move
consistently from wherever you are RIGHT NOW, first back toward your natural state of ease
and health, and then beyond health to wellness and ultimately wholeness.
