What is a chiropractic adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is a method of treatment designed to restore the six Health Zones to normal by locating and correcting spinal subluxations.  This reduces nerve pressure, restores nerve communication between the brain and the body, reestablishes normal function and natural resistance to stress and disease, thus enabling the living body to heal itself, naturally.

Adjustments can be done by hand, using gentle pressure, or with a variety of hand-held instruments.  Adjustments are safe and can be performed on anyone from newborns to elderly.

Along with proper nourishment, exercise, rest, recreation, sleep, internal and external sanitation, and a positive mental attitude, a regular program of chiropractic adjustments contributes to improved health and energy, an increased resistance to stress and disease, and a greater enjoyment of life.

 Dr. Lewis Asks some important questions of interest to La Porte residents - Chiropractor La Porte Dr. Lewis Asks...

How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most La Porte residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
What's your plan to deal with drug-resistant 'super germs'?
Chiropractors have always been concerned with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, accelerating the mutation of microbes that make "wonder" drugs increasingly ineffective. My strategy? Do everything possible to bolster my immune system through proper diet, rest, exercise, clean air, pure water and an optimally functioning nervous system with regular chiropractic care.
