A Natural Way To Stay Healthy
Many patients come to me in pain. Sometimes pain began yesterday and sometimes patients wait YEARS to actively make a choice to be healthier. It typically takes a significantly longer amount of time to 'stick' an adjustment and therefore release a patient when pain has been persistent over time.
Other patients come to me so young that they are unable to verbally communicate the fact that they may be in pain. Parents usually bring them in because of colic, a lack of good sleep, trouble pooping, trouble eating, ear Iinfections, or problems w spitting up. These are common indications that something internally is not functioning properly.
When a spine is aligned, the body is then given the opportunity to function at its best. A properly aligned spine gives the nervous system the ability to send signals from the brain to the body & the body back to the brain without interference; at its highest capable potential.
The nervous system is in control of your entire body, connecting your brain to your spinal cord to your nerves which extend from your core to EVERY part of your body. The nerves flow through the spine on their way to the body & back. For instance, if pain from the lower back extends to the outside of the buttock and around the outer/front of the thigh to the knee, it would be a good assumption that the patients 4th Lumbar nerve, L4, is being bothered given the anatomy and route of that nerve from the spine to its connections. When pressure is put on a nerve by surrounding structures, that nerve is aggravated & not functioning properly. The term for a spinal vertebrae out of place, affecting the nerve is SUBLUXATION.
There are nerves that stem from your spinal cord & connect to your lungs, your heart, your ovaries, your prostate gland, your gall bladder, your intestines, your stomach, etc. When part your nervous sytem is not working properly, that part is functioning at less than your body's 100% potential; functioning at less than 100% of your optimum health.
I have been fortunate to be able to help numerous patients w long lists of ailments ranging from minor aches to headaches to digestive troubles to heart murmurs to asthma problems. I am merely a subluxation fighter with a passion for giving my patients' nervous systems the ability to function at their best, being able to fight off disease at their best & stay as healthy as they can be.
You can NEVER catch a subluxation too early, so please have your children checked by a specific chiropractor sooner than later. It is an incredible thing to be a vital part of changing lives of families by moving bones w my hands to allow the body the ability to reach its full health potential & stay that way!!
