WHY CHIROPRACTIC?
A person should choose chiropractic because it focuses on the cause of the problem not just the symptoms. By focusing only on the removal of symptoms, the underlying cause may still be there and continue to return until it is removed.

Chiropractic is an effective treatment for:

  • Low Back pain
  • Upper and Middle Back Pain
  • Neck pain
  • Joint Pain
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Headaches and Migraines
  • Neuromuscular disorders
  • Improving your health and wellness

The science of chiropractic focuses on the body’s spine and takes a holistic approach towards healthcare. The spine houses and protects the spinal cord, which is the “switchboard” through which nerve impulses are transmitted from the brain to all parts of the body. 

In the event of injury or the accumulation of stress over time, misaligned vertebrae and joints of the extremities can interfere with nerve transmissions causing

  • Inhibited mobility
  • Pain and discomfort
  • Body functioning at less than its optimal level 

The term “subluxation” is used to describe misaligned vertebrae and other joints that cause nerve interference.  Chiropractic adjustments realign the structure so the nerve impulses are not restricted.  When the spine and structure is properly aligned, the cause of the pain and malfunction is removed, and the body will return to normal.

At Ghent Chiropractic, Dr. Clayton also looks at other areas that contribute to a person’s overall health and wellness.  Certain factors can impair the nervous system such as:

  • Lack of rest
  • Poor diet
  • Injury
  • Workplace stress
  • Lack of exercise

Therefore, Dr. Clayton provides exercise, stress reduction and nutritional advice to help patients improve their overall health and wellness.

Think of all the people who depend on you.  Your health influences everyone you know and love.  Invest in a program of regular chiropractic care for wellness.  We’ve seen some of our patients discontinue their care and then later suffer a relapse.  Through continued chiropractic care, there is lost cost and inconvenience and the lifelong benefit of a healthier you!

More and more people are discovering the benefits of regular chiropractic care.  In fact, many professional athletes have experienced the benefits of chiropractic care and keep to their care plans in order to obtain optimal performance in their area of sport.  You can have these same benefits.

Let Ghent Chiropractic help you discover the difference between living and living well for life.
