WHAT IS VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION?
When emotional, chemical, or physical stress is
experienced, your body's inner wisdom strives to adapt and change so its
defense mechanisms can maintain a high level of resistance.
However, when such stress overwhelms your body's natural
defenses, it can cause your spinal bones to shift. That can result in an
abnormal or "out of balance" structure. The bones are said to be
"subluxated."
Any spinal imbalance, where one or more
bones have shifted out of position, will cause areas of the spinal
column to work harder in order to compensate for the area that is out
of balance.
Between the spinal bones, called
vertebrae, are nerves which transport messages from the brain to all
organs, tissues and cells in the body. When the vertebrae are
subluxated, the nerve passageway is blocked, and the life energy
flowing through the nerve can be chocked off. This interferes with you
body's innate healing ability and lowers your resistance.
If this condition is not corrected, your organs and glands cannot
function properly and this can create abnormal body chemistry, disease,
and accelerated deterioration - even early death!
Vertebral subluxation is commonly referred to as "The Silent Killer,"
because there are usually no early warning symptoms.
OPTIMAL FUNCTIONING SPINE AND NERVOUS SYSTEM EQUALS OPTIMAL FUNCTIONING HEALTH
Chiropractic care is the process of
gently removing the damaging pressure put on the nervous system by a
misaligned vertebrae or spinal column. Using precise spinal
adjustments, the doctor of Chiropractic will regularly check and
recheck your alignment and other physical signs that would indicate any
spinal imbalance and nervous system dysfunction. These painless and
accurate adjustments will enhance your healing ability, performance,
and resistance.
LOWER RESISTANCE is the number one
cause of all physical breakdown, and VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION is a major
cause of lower resistance in the body. It's no wonder the accumulative
effects of gravity, motion, and daily stress can lead to illness and
disease through the damaging results of subluxation and NEUROLOGICAL
DISTRESS.
Learn to appreciate your body and the life
force within it that controls all functions. There is no greater
miracle in nature than the body's ability to heal itself.
