Chiropractic care has been helping individuals and families for years. Here is an example of those using it.
Pregnant women
Weight gain and hormonal changes make mothers-to-be uncomfortable. Chiropractic care is helpful in reducing the effects of low back pain. Mothers under chiropractic care often report easier births.
Babies/Children
Newborns, infants and children can benefit. The birth process may be the cause of our first subluxation. By the time that a child is four, a countless number of falls have happened. Ignored, these problems may worsen until they can become more difficult to correct as an adult.
Chiropractic care is effectively used in treating common childhood ailments such as ear infections, eczema, asthma and allergies.
Adults
Poor posture, auto accidents, sport injuries, prolonged sitting, childhood accidents and emotional stress can affect the health of your spine and produce subluxations. This sets off a chain reaction affecting the spinal bones, nerves, muscles, soft tissues and can result in degenerative changes throughout the body. Chiropractic care can assist you in improving the structural correction of the spine and restoration of the nervous system, thus allowing a patients ability to heal naturally
Athletes
Athletes maintain optimum health to ensure peak performance in their activities. Many athletes make regular chiropractic care an integral part of their training and well being. Not only do they require care for their spines, chiropractic care is often applied to their extremities as well, such as elbows, wrists, knees, ankles and shoulders. A well tuned body makes for a well tuned performance.
Seniors
Seniors interested in maintaining wellness naturally visit us regularly. Our safe and gentle approach is often a compliment to other health care practiced by elders.
Why should I consider chiropractic care?
Common daily elements such as long periods of sitting, toxic environments, and many everyday activities can stress your spine. Even the slightest trauma can cause interference to your nervous system and compromise optimum health. Maintenance care can help keep you healthy and avoid small problems from becoming big ones.
Regular chiropractic check-ups help avoid the expense of having to correct preventable problems. Continue your chiropractic care so you can enjoy life to the fullest. Dr. Bourgaize will recommend a schedule of preventive care visits based on his or her clinical experience. Most patients who enjoy a chiropractic lifestyle report they have more energy and feel better.

Research suggests ligaments and muscles that support your spine take longer to heal than indicated by how you feel. Your body continues to heal these soft tissues after your symptoms are gone. Continuing with wellness chiropractic care encourages more complete healing. This helps assure a lasting recovery. Before obvious symptoms provided a warning, your body adapted to the soft tissue damage caused by improper spinal function. Without continued chiropractic care, muscles and connective tissue are predisposed to assume unhealthy patterns. Rehabilitative care continues to retain and strengthen your spine to help avoid a relapse.
