What is chiropractic and how can it help?

Centenary Chiropractic Centre

Over 100 years ago, D.D. Palmer (the Founder of Chiropractic) had a "big idea" — that good health can be sustained naturally, without drugs or surgery, through chiropractic care. Today, chiropractic is the second largest licensed health care profession. 

Chiropractors work with and enhance the body's natural ability to heal itself without drugs or surgery. Like all professional health care practitioners, chiropractors follow definite protocols to gain the information to provide you with the best care. They will take your history and conduct physical, orthopaedic and neurological examinations and may order or take X-rays.

What is chiropractic?

Centenary Chiropractic Centre

We know that the nervous system controls the functions of every tissue, organ and system in the body. Chiropractic concerns itself with the relationship between structure (primarily ale spine) and function (primarily coordinated by the nervous system) of the human body, and how that relationship affects the restoration and preservation of health. 

When that relationship is compromised by a spinal bone interfering with your nervous system (a vertebral subluxation), your chiropractor will deliver a spinal adjustment (a specific, precise, corrective force to the offending spinal segment). 

This correction permits normal nerve transmission, enabling the body's innate recuperative power to begin the healing process. It is said that the body needs no help or interference in looking after itself.

Walk Well With a Good Toe Off

Walk Well With a Good Toe Off

Wednesday, July 14, 2021

Just because we can walk from point A to point B, doesn’t necessarily mean our gait is correct. One important aspect of walking worth considering is the Toe Off.

Walking can be broken down into four phases: 1) heel strike - when your heel first hits the ground; 2) stance phase - the period when your whole foot is on the ground; 3) toe off - the point when your toes bend, just before your foot lifts off the ground; and 4) swing phase - the period when your foot is in the air.

 

A faulty gait is often due to a poor toe-off. The correct technique involves pushing off with the first and second toes by contracting the calf muscles and flexor muscles of the foot. However many people wrongly use their thigh muscles to lift the foot rather than pushing off with the toes.

 

Next time you are walking take a moment to observe your gait. Is it smooth and fluent? Do you stand tall and upright? Are you feet flaring out too far, or rotating in? Do you roll your feet over too much? What’s your toe off like? A good toe off keeps muscles balanced and adds a spring to your step.
