 Dr. Richard Asks some important questions of interest to Downtown Calgary residents - Chiropractor Downtown Calgary Dr. Richard Asks...

Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Downtown Calgary chiropractic practice.
What happens if you stop chiropractic care when you feel better?
Many Downtown Calgary folks recognize that this predisposes you to a relapse. Chiropractors know that muscles and ligaments supporting the spine don't fully heal until after symptoms subside.
