"To understand health, is to understand the central role of the brain and the nervous system in maintaining the resistance of the body. Health maintenance is the PRIMARY function of the brain, not educational thoughts, language, poetry and other functions usually associated with the brain."

Subluxation & Neurological Function
When the Central Nervous System can not Communicate at an optimal level with the rest of the body because of Vertebral Subluxation, the overall function and healing potential are reduced.

Are subluxations evidenced by Pain & Symptoms?

Causes of SUBLUXATIONSubluxations have a great number of different causes all of which the average individual is exposed to daily. These causes can be described in terms of physical, chemical, and emotional causes.
Physical causes include acute trauma to the body, sports injury, poor sleeping habits, birthing process, repetitive motions affecting the spine, bad postural habits, improper workstation habits and design, and weak or imbalanced spinal musculature. Chemical causes include poor dietary and nutritional practices, drug and alcohol use and abuse, as well as the ingestion of chemical toxins in the foods we eat, air we breathe, and water we drink. Chemicals are harmful to the body and decrease the body's ability to function optimally and reduce the ability to successfully adapt to and withstand internal and external stresses - making us more susceptible to spinal subluxations and the consequences of these subluxations. Emotional causes collectively refers to our thoughts, feelings and stress… all three affect the body’s physiology (the natural chemicals(hormones and neuropeptides) our body releases). Negative thought patterns, excessive stress or inadequate stress management skills can deplete the body of the ability to sustain normal functions. The impact of emotional stress on physical health is well documented in medical research and has devastating effects on the immune system, making the body susceptible to injury and disease.

"Pathological changes have been observed at the cellular level after experimental compression of neural structures. Those include Wallerian degeneration, dystrophic axons and occasional loss of myleniated nerve fibers."

Relating posture to health conditions is found in
main stream medical journals... "Deviations in the body's center of gravity (read: poor posture) have resulted in intestinal problems, hemorrhoids, varicose veins, osteoporosis, hip and foot deformities, POOR HEALH, DECREASED QUALITY OF LIFE, and SHORTENED LIFE SPAN." Journal of the American Medical Association Yet posture is not addressed by most physicians during routine health assessment! |
"The beginning of the disease process begins with postural distortions."
