Will chiropractic adjustments make my spine too loose?

No. Only the spinal joints that are fixated and "locked up" receive attention. The occasional spinal joint that moves too much is passed over so weakened muscles and ligaments can strengthen and heal.

What causes subluxations?

Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.

Honolulu Chiropractor : Dr. Malia Emmerich

For years I suffered from lower back pain, headaches and jaw pain and I was only 26!

I was working for a chiropractor in Beverly Hills, California and she said that she could help me with those problems. Within 3-4 weeks after only a 6-7 treatments I was completely better! Not only was I out of pain but I had more energy and flexibility! I also was not as irritable, moody or stressed because I was pain free!

I asked her what she did and she began to teach me about chiropractic philosophy.

She said that "the power that made the body can heal the body!" She showed me a chart of how the body is controlled by the nervous system: the brain and the spinal cord. She said that when there is pressure on the nerves you have dis-ease and chiropractic adjustments corrects that pressure so the body heals by itself.

I was Completely Hooked!

I was completely fascinated and hooked! I GOT IT! I now had to do what she did and help as many as possible understand that they too can be healthy and be able to live the kind of life that they want!

Chiropractic Education

I started my journey at Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles immediately in 1993 and graduated in 1996! I moved to Orange County and had a wonderful time there learning and building my practice for 8 years.

Returning Home to Honolulu

I moved back home here to Honolulu in winter of 2003 and started Holistic Chiropractic here in 2004. I am overjoyed and so grateful to be able to do what I do! It is so wonderful be home in Hawaii and be able to give back to so many families here as well!
