Some helpful information before you see Dr. Bala
Chiropractic Overview
Your brain controls every function of your body, sending signals through your spinal cord throughout your entire system.
As Doctors of Chiropractic, we focus our care on maximizing the function of the whole body without the use of drugs or surgery. By concentrating our care on helping the brain and spinal cord carry all of their signals properly to the rest of the body, we are able to offer an alternative method of treating certain disorders.
Chiropractic is a health profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health. There is an emphasis on manual treatments including spinal manipulation or adjustment.
By restoring normal function to the musculoskeletal system chiropractors can play a major part in relieving disorders, and any accompanying pain or discomfort, arising from accidents, stress, lack of exercise, poor posture or illness.
Today's chiropractors treat many thousands of patients each week for a wide variety of conditions. They support their treatment with advice about their patients' work, diet and exercise.
At our clinic, we emphasize personalized care. Our course of treatment varies from each individual. If you don't already have a Doctor of Chiropractic Medicine for health care, call our clinic to learn more if your condition is something that can be aided by Chirpractic care or to schedule an appointment.

The Three Phases of Care
Pain Relief Phase:
Our initial goal is to relieve the patient's pain as soon as possible using chiropractic techniques and physiotherapeutic methods and procedures.
Corrective/Rehabilitative Phase:
During this phase, tight muscles are stretched, weak muscles are strengthened, and flexibility is increased. Chiropractic adjustments help to re-align the spine. Home exercise prescriptions are provided.
Preventive/Maintenance Phase:
Patients are given periodic evaluation and treatment based on activity level, lifestyle, and needs to prevent further injury and maintain health.
