Why Chiropractic Philosophy Matters

The Heart of the Profession

Chiropractic Philosophy provides the conceptual framework for understanding the relationship between structure, function, adaptability, and human potential.
It explains why vertebral subluxation matters, how interference alters physiologic expression, and why restoring normal function empowers the Innate Intelligence of the body to express itself more fully in the tissues of the body.

The Importance of the Vertebral Subluxation

The vertebral subluxation represents a disturbance to normal neurologic function.


Correcting it is not merely a mechanical act—it is a vitalistic intervention that restores harmony between the body and its inborn wisdom.

Philosophy, Science, and Research

The Center funds research that respects the principles of Chiropractic while exploring measurable changes in adaptability, physiology, and neuro-autonomic function.

Examples include:

  • Pupillary light reflex metrics
  • Heart rate variability (HRV)
  • Fetal and adult ECG signal refinement
  • Entropy and complexity analysis
  • Neuro-autonomic function studies
