What is nervous system care?
All chiropractors, regardless of technique, influence 3 systems of the body: the skeletal system, the muscular system, and the nervous system. What makes each chiropractor different is which system of the body he or she focuses on when providing care and creating care plans.Â
A chiropractor who focuses on the skeletal system identifies alignment problems with your bones and works to correct those problems by moving the bones back to where they should be. These chiropractors will often use x-ray as their primary examination tool because they want to see changes in how bones are aligned.
A chiropractor who focuses on the muscular system searches for muscles that are too tight, pulling your bones out of proper alignment. These chiropractors put a lot of emphasis on stretches and exercises to do at home.
As a chiropractor who focuses on the nervous system, Dr. Jordan locates areas where the brain is not communicating well with the rest of your body, and removes the nerve interference in those areas. While there is a time and a place to focus on the skeletal and muscular systems, Dr. Jordan prioritizes this approach because nerve interference is often the root cause of problems with the other two systems of the body. This is the case because muscles move bones, and the nervous system tells your muscles what to do. By addressing the nervous system first, the skeletal and muscular systems will follow suit.
Dr. Jordan's favorite thing about nervous system focused care is how it expands what he's able to help his patients with. Click on the conditions below to learn more about how nervous system focused chiropractic care can help!
