From The Office of Chiropractor, Mike Tannenbaum, D.C.

What is true health and how does chiropractic play a part in it. True health is optimal physical, mental and social well being. True health requires that all the organs tissues and systems of the body are functioning as close to %100 as possible. As I talked about in my last blog post, the Vertebral Subluxation Complex (VSC) ultimately results in the degrading of ones health due to nerve interference. Well, chiropractic works to evaluate the VSC, to reduce, correct and prevent the VSC allowing a better return to function/health. Along with this, Chiropractors believe that the body has an innate intelligence such that the less the body has nerve interference the better the body can with out any outside help heal itself when sick. The saying in the chiropractic world is that “the body needs no help just no interference”. The bottom line here is that in order to have true health you need to eliminate the VSC/nerve interference and if you do that the body's innate intelligence will do the rest to heal the body allowing the body to have as close to true health as possible.
