Essential Family Chiropractic is a Columbia Maryland Chiropractor, providing a wide range of chiropractic and physical therapy services to Howard County, and was started in 1999 by Dr. Eric Lindsell. Dr. Lindsell and his staff offer a complete range of chiropractic care in Columbia, Maryland and physical therapy services focused on providing natural health care without drugs or surgery.
A chiropractor uses spinal adjustments to correct misalignments (called subluxations) and restore proper function to the nervous system. This helps the body to heal naturally. Chiropractic doesn't use drugs or surgery. Instead, a chiropractic spinal adjustment-the application of a precise force to a specific part of the spinal segment-corrects the misalignment.
This permits normal nerve transmission and helps the body to recuperate on its own. Chiropractic services are an essential component to reach your maximum health potential. Chiropractic, like dentistry, focuses on wellness, instead of just treating pain.

Remember when your mother told you to stand up straight and not slouch?
In essence, she was trying to optimize your posture.
Good posture depends on many factors, including, of course, the bones (called vertebral bodies) that make up our spine.
We have a total of 33 vertebrae categorized into 5 types, depending on where they are located.
Below the lumbar spine are usually 5 fused vertebrae called the sacrum.
Beneath the sacrum are 4 coccygeal bones which form the tailbone.
Certain diseases and conditions can cause the spine to lose its normal curvature.

Research shows a gas (in this case, nitrogen), which is normally dissolved into the surrounding tissues of the spine, rushes in to fill the partial vacuum created when the joint surfaces are slightly separated.
Another example of this phenomenon would be the "pop" you hear when you remove the cork from a champagne bottle.
The CO2 in the champagne rushes out of the bottle when the cork is removed.
This phenomenon is called "cavitation."
It is this cavitation that is the cause of the noise.
Not all chiropractic adjusting techniques produce the popping noise we associate with "cracking our knuckles."

A new review may provide just that.
Researchers have found that cocoa flavanols could boost cognitive function within just a few hours of consumption.
Additionally, researchers found that regular, long-term intake of cocoa flavanols may protect against cognitive decline.
Flavanols are naturally occurring compounds found in various types of plants, with some of the highest levels found in the beans of the cocoa tree.
Flavanols have antioxidant properties, meaning that they have the ability to reduce the effects of cell damage caused by oxidative stress.
