"But Doc, I Didn't Do Anything!"

Dr. Russ Asks some important questions of interest to Brooklyn Park residents - Chiropractor Brooklyn Park Dr. Russ Asks...

How could a child benefit from chiropractic?
Regardless of our age, each of us in Brooklyn Park encounters physical, chemical and emotional stresses that exceed our ability to handle. For newborns, it could be the trauma encountered at birth. For toddlers it could be from learning to walk or ride a bike. Many of the problems we chiropractors see in adults are the result of neglected traumas from childhood.
Which organs are extra?
You don't have any spare parts. Sure, we can survive without our tonsils, appendix, gall bladder and several other tissues, but each serves a purpose. We chiropractors recognize this. So the chiropractic approach I use in Brooklyn Park is to reduce nerve interferences to the control and regulation of every tissue, organ and system of your body.
