Your nervous system is the control center for your entire body. Much like musicians in an orchestra, every cell in the body takes direction from one conductor -the brain. For the body to perform at its best on all levels (athletic, emotional, mental, health) the brain must be able to freely communicate with the rest of the body.
When the bones of the spine stop moving properly and become misaligned, they can cause interference along the nerve channels. These misalignments are called "Subluxations." These subluxations are detrimental to our health and well being.
Locating and correcting vertebral subluxations for the improvement of nerve function. The brain and the nervous system control every muscle and organ in the body. In fact every single cell in your body is controlled and monitored by your nervous system and the slightest interference to this communication can cause health problems and pain.
The Gonstead Chiropractor utilizes his unique and refined art of skeletal analysis to detect any harmful misalignments and then specifically corrects the misalignment, thereby restoring proper nerve function and health. When proper nerve function is restored, pain disappears, headaches are gone, stomach and intestinal problems are healed…maximum health is achieved.
Gonstead Chiropractors will tell you immediately if your health situation is a Chiropractic case. Careful analysis of the spine tells the chiropractor which bones have misaligned.
By specifically correcting only the bones which have misaligned, Gonstead uses a safe and biomechanically accurate approach to Chiropractic care.
The Gonstead Clinic of Chiropractic, completed in 1964, was the third and final clinic Dr. Gonstead would design and treat patients from in this little town of Mt. Horeb before his death in 1978. Next to his new clinic, Dr. Gonstead added a 78 room, full-service motel to accommodate the clinic's numerous long distance patients who would drive or fly to see him. The Gonstead Method was and still is extremely successful at restoring proper nerve function and relieving symptoms.
