If you still think chiropractic is just about “moving bones,” or, "cracking backs," you’re missing the real science.Modern research shows the primary effect of a chiropractic adjustment is neurological—not structural.A precise spinal adjustment delivers meaningful sensory input to the nervous system, which helps the brain:Improve sensorimotor integrationReduce protective muscle guardingImprove signal clarity.Enhance body awareness, coordination, and movementIn simple terms, the adjustment updates the brain’s map of the body.That’s why studies consistently show improvements in strength, balance, reaction time, proprioception, and pain processing—even when pain isn’t the main complaint.Subluxation isn’t just about joint restriction.It’s about distorted information going to the brain and inefficient signals coming back down.Chiropractic works because it restores clarity in the nervous system—less threat, better movement, and a brain that can do its job more efficiently.This perspective is inspired by the neuroscience-based chiropractic education shared by Dr. Monique Andrews, whose work helps advance how we explain chiropractic through a modern brain-based lens.We don’t move bones.We change brains.
