Teicheira Chiropractic

At Teicheira Chiropractic, we are dedicated to providing rapid results and maintaining open communication with our patients. We believe in evaluating the cause of each patient's specific involvement, making the necessary adjustments to achieve correction, and measuring our success by the resolution of the problems presented. As cases respond to care, we gradually decrease our intervention, giving our patients more control over their own health.

Our approach is based on the understanding that the human body is a complex and intricate system. From the earliest stages of development, the nervous system takes the lead, organizing and managing the other bodily systems. The brain and spinal cord are the most sensitive parts of this system, and as such, they are protected by bony shells and fluid. The main communication pipeline, the spinal cord, is housed within the vertebrae, and its branches are sheathed in a fibrous, fatty liner called the myelin sheath.

However, the human body is not just a static structure; it is designed to move and function. This movement poses a challenge to the goal of protecting the nerves. The body manages this competition between goals by developing bony structures called vertebrae to carry the weight of gravity. These vertebrae are separated by a pad called the disc and are protected by a bony arch that houses the spinal cord. The curves in the spine act as flexible springs to dissipate the shock of energy it receives. The muscles use the nerve pathways to detect the motion and reflexively catch the energy.

Unfortunately, impacts and stresses can reposition the vertebrae on its platform, leading to a cycle of joint, nerve, and soft tissue damage. This can result in more rapid deterioration of the joint, scarring and calcification of soft tissues, and impaired function of the nerve transmission at the critical branching point from the main spinal cord pipeline. Chiropractors refer to this damaging event as Functional Subluxation of the vertebrae.

Our team at Teicheira Chiropractic is dedicated to early intervention to avoid these more serious tissue changes. We use corrective adjustments to restore better motion to the involved segment and supportive exercises and lifestyle activities to re-educate motion and proper patterns of nerve transmission. Ignoring the problem can lead to deterioration over time, progressively damaging joints, nerves, and muscles to the point of failure. By supporting the better function of the spine and associated structures, we can help our patients achieve a longer and healthier life.
