As a doctor of chiropractic, Dr. Erica is trained to find and correct subluxations. 

Subluxations are minor misallignments of a joint, or bone that cause irritation to the nerves and surrounding soft tissues creating interference in the nervous system. Subluxations can sometimes be associated, with pain, due to the irritating factors  but not always. They are however associated with decreased function which over time, may result in decreased quality of life.

When a person is free of subluxation, they are free to function at a higher level. When you were formed in your mother's womb, a tiny spark of energy was created, that energy multiplied as the two cells merged and began dividing. That spark is the first sign of life, and is the start of the creation of your nervous system. As the nervous system continues to develop, the other systems follow, but the nervous system, the "control system", controls every other system in the body, for this reason, it is important to have your spine checked regularly.

In our office, we follow the chiropractic principle that there are three causes of subluxations, thought's, trauma's, and toxin's, in other words, emotional, physical and chemical stress. When we carry emotional trauma, experience physical trauma, or our body  becomes a toxic environment due to the things we put in and on our body, our nervous system is suppressed and as a result, the other organ systems are also suppressed. Your body is smart and capable and always trying to protect itself, but survival mode is not a way to live. We cannot thrive if we cannot function. We want to empower you, to be your best!
