Dr. Gary Edwards of Birmingham, AL has been in practice as a chiropractor since December 13, 1985. He attended the Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, where he earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree.
Chiropractic care is based on the view that patients should be seen as whole people, rather than an organism that is bearing a disorder. The body’s natural systems are seen as a functioning, interactive unit that, complex as it is, is able to maintain health. The body has a natural ability to correct any disorders if its functional integrity is maintained.
Chiropractic care has always focused on the effect of the nervous system on the healing process, and how interfering with it can have a serious impact on good health. Newer research also supports chiropractic treatment for neuromusculoskeletal conditions. Chiropractic neurologists are chiropractors who have advanced post-graduate training beyond the traditional chiropractic training. Unlike a medical neurologist, a chiropractic neurologist treats patients with non-surgical, medication-free methods.
This science evolved because so many conditions of the brain and the nervous system don’t respond well to invasive surgeries or drug therapies, which in far too many instances can do as much harm as good. Chiropractic neurologists, therefore, play a unique and important role in treating brain and nervous system disorders.
Dr. Gary Edwards of Birmingham, AL is committed to providing his patients with the best possible chiropractic care. He is a certified in Functional Neurology by the American Functional Neurology Institute and is a member of the International Association of Functional Neurology and Rehabilitation, and of the American Chiropractic Association, among other professional organizations.
