In simplest terms, a subluxation a.k.a.
Vertebral Subluxation) is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves.
Spinal nerves are the nerves that come out from between each of the bones in your spine.
This pressure or irritation on the nerves then causes those nerves to malfunction and interfere with the signals traveling over those nerves.
How does this affect you?
Your nervous system controls and coordinates all the functions of your body.

This is a representation of one type of subluxation.
A subluxation, as defined by the Association of Chiropractic Colleges is: "A subluxation is a complex of functional and/or structural and/or pathological articular changes that compromise neural integrity and may influence organ system function and general health."
When a subluxation occurs it causes nerve interference in some portion of the body affected by those nerves.
The subluxation causes changes to the structure as well as the nerves.
These changes get progressively worse as time is allowed to work on the subluxated area of the spine.

Chiropractors do not claim to treat infectious diseases.
What chiropractic does is allow your body to function free of nerve system interference and closer to your full potential.
Understanding the spread of infectious disease and how best to defend yourself can lessen the fear as well as your chances of being impacted by infectious pathogens.
There are generally two types of defenses to viruses and pathogens.
One is external and the other is internal.
An external defense is something you can do to lessen your chances of being infected, or if infected, decrease the severity of the event.

Dr. Heeren will then sit down with you and review your health history listening to any complaints or concerns you may have that brought you to the office.
He will then perform a thorough evaluation of your spine and nervous system as well as other areas of complaint.
Often times this will involve a computerized surface EMG exam which allows Dr. Heeren to quickly determine the presence of elevated muscle activity or imbalance that may be associated with spinal subluxations.
In most cases X-Rays are also taken to evaluate spinal alignment and function, determine the condition of your spine and to rule out any pathology.
