• Did you know that your Brain and Spine control
  every other part of the body?
• Your Spine is easily misaligned from birth
  trauma, falls, injuries, bumps, poor posture,
  incorrect sporting technique, car accidents etc.
• Most spinal problems do not cause pain - waiting
  for pain is waiting too long. We only feel 10 of
  our misalignments.
• It is a great idea to have your spine checked by
  a chiropractor.
• Chiropractors use X-rays, computer scanning, and
  physical examination to find nerve pressure
• Modern Chiropractic Care is safe, gentle and
  effective
