Neuro-Structural vs. Conventional Chiropractic
Conventional Chiropractic Care
Conventional Santa Clara chiropractic care typically aims to increase range of motion, decrease muscle spasms, and relieve pain. This type of care falls under the category of symptom reduction/management and conventional chiropractors can be excellent at doing this.
Neuro-Structural Corrective Santa Clara Chiropractor
At Platinum Chiropractic our approach is different. We focus on Neuro-Structural Correction by utilizing objective indicators to determine the presence of Neuro-Structural Shifts.
Think about it like this; if a house has a poor foundation, you may find that you have problems. Maybe the walls are cracking, the plumbing and electric systems are malfunctioning, and the doors and windows are not closing correctly.
You can keep addressing these individual issues (symptoms), but they are likely to keep recurring until the underlying cause is corrected (Neuro-Structural Shift). Your spine is the foundation of your body, and all of the organs, muscles, and connective tissue are built around it.S

What is a Neuro-Structural Shift?
The body uses symptoms as warning indicators of a potentially more serious condition. A Neuro-Structural Shift is just such a condition that may be the cause of your symptoms.
Our Santa Clara chiropractic center focuses on detecting and correcting these shifts. This allows the body can heal on its own and to function optimally. These Neuro-Structural Shifts create a fragile foundation that eventually results in Secondary Conditions.

What Are Secondary Conditions?
Secondary Conditions are our body’s warning signs that something isn’t right. Any time you have a secondary condition, it is important to ask why that symptom has occurred. At our Santa Clara Chiropractic center, we will determine whether you have a Neuro-Structural Shift, and whether it may be causing your secondary conditions.

What Are My Chiropractic Treatment Options?
Most doctors and healthcare providers are focused on symptom or pain relief (Secondary Conditions). They may do so naturally, medically, or therapeutically. Our goal at Platinum Chiropractic is to restore the structural integrity of your spine.
In our practice, we focus on specific chiropractic adjustments to remove Neuro-Structural Shifts of the spine. Many of our patients come to us frustrated after trying traditional treatments at a San Jose chiropractor that may have helped them temporarily, but did not fix their problems.
Our Santa Clara chiropractic center develops treatment plans that are tailored to each individual depending on the severity of the Neuro-Structural Shift. The adjustments are precise, and are part of a comprehensive care plan to correct the Neuro-Structural Shifts. Complimentary recommendations will be made to assist the body in quicker recovery and help achieve optimal correction of your structural abnormalities.
It is important to note that correcting a Neuro-Structural Shift does not happen overnight. It takes time and repetition. However, investing the time and energy into fixing your body’s foundation is one of the best things you can do for your health.

Study Correlates Chiropractic Care and Good Health
Meet Dr. Henry Windsor. Back in 1921, Dr. Windsor, a medical doctor, wanted to know why his patients undergoing chiropractic care or osteopathic spinal care returned to health without medications or surgery. So he put together a study at the University of Pennsylvania to try and answer just that question.

Why do people tend to get sick this time of year? We’ve all heard the theory that when kids return to school, being around each other is how they “catch colds.” Although it is correct that they are around more people, this alone doesn’t cause sickness. Think about all the places people go during the summertime where there are many people, amusement parks, camps, vacations with lots of tourists, and even other countries.

Strong Immune System Defense
The purpose of strong immune system defense is to defend the body from enemies and effectively attack and remove infiltrators. The brain and the autonomic nervous system (automatic operating system) play a critical role in that process. When an invader is detected, the brain and the autonomic nervous system facilitate the synchronization of the immune system’s soldiers to sequester and eliminate the assailants.
