The basic principle of chiropractic is centered on the belief that the body’s ability to function at its full potential is directly related to the efficiency of its nervous system. Chiropractic views the spinal column as the nervous system’s lifeline and the primary means through which the life
force is expressed.
Structural malalignments within the spinal column cause an imbalance in the natural flow of nervous energy through the body. Therefore, the optimal expression of life force is directly related to the structure and function of the spinal column. The spinal column deserves the best care and maintenance. Through the analysis, detection, and correction of structural anomalies, referred to as "subluxations," chiropractic care can be very useful in restoring balance to the body.
Aromatherapy is a term used to use volatile liquids distilled from various parts of plants, including bark, flowers, fruit, seeds, and stems. Essential oils and human blood share many common properties. Both fight infection, contain hormone-like compounds, and initiate regeneration. As plants’ defense mechanism, essential oils possess potent antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties. The ability of some essential oils to work as hormones helps them bring balance to the function of many of the body’s systems. Essential oils also play a role in initiating the regeneration process of the plant, like the role blood plays in the human body. Essential oils have chemical structures like those found in human cells and tissues. This makes essential oils compatible with human proteins and enables them to be readily identified and accepted by the body.
Aromas from essential oils can directly affect everything, from our emotional state to our life span. They can have profound physiological and psychological effects on the human economy. When a fragrance is inhaled, the aroma molecules travel up the nose, trapped by olfactory (smelling) membranes that line the inside of the nose.
Each aroma molecule fits like a little puzzle piece into a specific receptor cell lining, a membrane known as the olfactory epithelium.
Hundreds of millions of nerve cells are replaced every 28 days (about four weeks). When stimulated by aroma molecules, this stimulation of nerve cells triggers electrical impulses to the gustatory center, where taste is perceived, and the amygdala, where emotional memories are stored. Other parts of the limbic system are directly connected to these parts of the brain and control a variety of functions, including:

Somiatry is derived from two Greek words: Soma, meaning the body, and iatric, the work of a Physician, Priest, or Healer. The letters ia in a term is used to terminate the name of a disease state or condition, i.e., “psoriasis,” or to denote a priest or prophet, i.e., Isaiah, Jeremiah, Obadiah, Zephaniah, Zachariah, and the Messiah. Somiatry is a philosophy of life, health, and healing based on recognizing that life expresses an organized and intelligent universal ineffable (that is experienced but cannot be explained.) Health is considered the universal ineffable expression of life without limitation. A limited expression of this expression is observed as a “disease” and diagnosed as a disease.
Utilizing various methods and procedures to work with the body mechanically, the bodyworker (Somaticist) attempts to facilitate the ease of expressing the animating vital force. Procedures utilized with the practice of Somatics include massage, various forms of bodywork, aromatherapy, etc.
