"The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest the patient in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease."
Thomas Edison
Your Spine Is Your Lifeline
Chiropractic is based on the fact that the nervous system is the master controller of the body. Your spine protects the sensitive nerves as they leave the spinal cord and enter the body to communicate the vital information necessary for life. Physical, emotional, and chemical stresses can create interference within the nervous system, causing spinal joints to become stuck or misaligned, resulting in ill health. Just like orthodontists correct teeth alignment with braces, chiropractors correct spinal alignment through adjustments. As your spine regains function, irritation to the nervous system is reduced and your body can return to do what it is designed to do...heal itself.
Spinal adjustments are performed by applying a precise amount of pressure in a specific direction on the spinal bones to restore normal function. Dr. Perrine tailors his treatment to meet each patient's needs. Some people desire deep muscle work along with firm adjustments, while others prefer a more gentle approach. We will take the time to listen to you and decide which manner of care best fits your needs; providing you truly personalized care. Our patients have ranged in ages from newborns to 97 year olds, weekend warriors to professional athletes. Rest assured, we have had the opportunity to work with someone just like you!
One concern some people have prior to starting chiropractic care is the idea that once you begin, you can never stop. This may be the case in some offices, but not ours. How long you decide to benefit from chiropractic is ALWAYS up to you. Because your health and your concerns are unique, we desire to work together with you to help you meet your personal goals.
There are many patients who decide to continue care on a regular basis because they simply feel better doing so. In life, all good things (like health) are upstream and require effort to maintain. Because the flow of life is constantly drawing us downstream, we must be diligent in our efforts to achieve a state of well-being. As you continue to battle the currents along the river of life, we are happy to grab a paddle to keep you moving upstream upon your journey!
