Subluxation theory

Subluxation theory suggests that misalignments or mispositions of the spine's vertebrae can interfere with nerve function, potentially impacting overall health. This concept, often associated with chiropractic care, posits that such misalignments may cause or contribute to various health issues by disrupting the communication pathways between the brain and the body. Chiropractic adjustments aim to correct these subluxations, restoring proper nerve flow and supporting general well-being. While this theory is a foundational principle in chiropractic practice, its interpretations and accepted clinical significance vary within the broader medical community.
