About Chiropractic
“More and more Singaporeans are turning to chiropractic care and are choosing a path to overall wellness...”
Chiropractic is a health care profession based on 4 basic scientific concepts:
The living body is a self regulating and self-healing organism, and these important functions are controlled by your nervous system.
The nervous system is the master system of the body, and there is nothing that you experience or express as a human being that wasn′t processed through your nervous system.
When there is interference to the function of the nervous system, not only does it have an adverse effect on general health but can lead to malfunction of the tissue and organ function throughout the body. Doctors of Chiropractic call this, “vertebral subluxation”.
What we do as chiropractors is locate and correct (reduce) the cause of that interference through a drug-free, hands-on approach to healthcare. The most common therapeutic procedure performed by chiropractors is known as “chiropractic adjustment”.
Chiropractors may assess patients through clinical examination and diagnostic imaging to determine when chiropractic treatment is appropriate or when it is not. Chiropractors will readily refer patients to the appropriate health care provider when chiropractic care is not suitable for the patient′s condition, or the condition warrants co-management in conjunction with other members of the health care team.
