A natural approach to whole-body healing

Chiropractic helps people of all ages, sizes and conditions find safe solutions to a variety of their health care problems and concerns.

Chiropractic care is designed to restore your body's ability to regulate and heal itself naturally. Without drugs. Without surgery. It honors the wisdom of your body and has helped millions enjoy relief and better health for more than a century.

It's a scientific fact that your brain, spinal cord and the rest of your nerves control every aspect of your body. Chiropractic provides results by helping your nervous system work the way it should - helping to eliminate the myriad of health problems that can result from hindered nerve links between your brain and your body.

Chiropractic care:

• Improves the function of your nervous system which controls every aspect of your body.
• Boosts your immune system, enhancing your body's natural ability to ward off infections and heal itself.
• Focuses on the cause rather than the effect of an illness.
• Benefits the whole body of people of all ages and conditions.
• Yields long-term health benefits even after a condition has been addressed.
  

Today, more people are choosing chiropractic care first. Before drugs. Before surgery. Before an illness or injury jeopardizes the quality of their life. Isn't it time you found a chiropractic provider to help you and your family? The Miami Valley Chiropractic Society can help.

Doctor Training and Education

To become a Doctor of Chiropractic, a candidate receives extensive, demanding professional education of the same level as medical doctors (MDs) and osteopaths (DOs). To receive the Doctor of Chiropractic degree (DC), candidates must complete extensive undergraduate prerequisites, an additional 4 years of graduate-level instruction, plus an in-depth, hands-on internship at an accredited chiropractic institution. A Doctor of Chiropractic must have a comprehensive knowledge of all systems of the body and diagnostic procedures in order to thoroughly evaluate a patient, address disorders relating to the spine, and determine the best strategy to effectively assist the patient toward recovery.

Once this training is complete, the Doctor of Chiropractic is required to pass rigorous national and state chiropractic board examinations prior to being granted a license to practice chiropractic.
