A state of good health depends on a normally functioning nervous system. The most important and delicate organs of your nervous system are supported and protected by the skull and spinal vertebrae. Misalignments that occur in the bony spine and other places in the body cause inflammation and interference to nerve communication. Chiropractic is the health care field which is focused on correcting these points of interference, termed "subluxation complexes".

These subluxations disrupt the way the nerves, muscles, organs, and other parts of the body function, including reducing the body's natural resistance to disease. Dr. Johnson locates these points of interference and corrects the subluxations so your body can reestablish its balance and heal itself to the best of its ability.

Chiropractic is so much more than just pain relief! By respecting the body's amazing ability to conduct the healing process, the chiropractic intervention is non-invasive, drugless, and is considered a more natural approach to health.

Dr. Johnson specializes in a specific, gentle chiropractic technique called Activator Methods. Patients are often attracted to this technique because of its consistency, comfort, and results. Although Activator Methods is the most widely-used instrument chiropractic technique, there is only one chiropractic office in Peoria which exclusively offers Activator Methods: Johnson Family Chiropractic.
