The Power of Your Health Potential
“Your body’s ability to heal is greater than anyone has permitted you to believe.”
Not only is that quote inspiring and thought-provoking, but we see it in action every day in our practice. Your body has an incredible natural ability to adapt, change, and heal. Whether you’re bouncing back after an acute injury or looking for the best way to overcome chronic pain, in many cases, your body just needs to have the opportunity to heal, and nature will take care of the rest.
Understanding your body’s natural healing power isn’t some woo-woo thought. Health entails much more than just not having pain. The World Health Organization defines health as complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease. This statement shows us that true health is multi-dimensional and emphasizes the critical connection between your brain and body.
You were born with an unbelievable ability to heal through complex interactions between your brain and body.
Your habits and choices can enhance or reduce your body’s ability to reach its health potential.
Your brain and body are directly connected and coordinate all of your body systems (including your immune system) by communicating through your nervous system
The function of your nervous system is a key part of your overall health and wellness. Chiropractors are focused on the spine for exactly this reason. Since your spine protects your spinal cord, proper spinal motion is important. Pain is just one of your body’s indications that something is wrong. So, if you’re experiencing pain in or around your spine, schedule a visit with iCare Chiropractic today. We’ll help you move in the right direction by working with your body’s natural healing ability!
