Vertebral subluxation can be caused by factors beyond the physical realm. Learn how trauma, toxins, and thoughts affect your health and well-being.
101 Ways to Subluxate
Having 190,000 kg drop on your head at the Olympic Games. Can you imagine weightlifter and gold medalist Matthias Steiner’s next visit to the chiropractor…? “Hi, my neck hurts, and I’ve been having headaches. Do you think it could be because of my pillow?”
The father of chiropractic, D.D. Palmer He identified three types of stress as the main causes of nervous system dysfunction (also known as subluxation): trauma, toxins, and thoughts.
The first cause of stress is quite obvious, but patients often overlook the last two.
TOXINS come in the form of pesticides, artificial food additives, cigarette smoke, and—most common of all—pharmaceuticals (yes, drugs are foreign to the body and put additional strain on your nervous system).
Constant thoughts of fear, worry, and depression can also weaken your sensitive nervous system and make it harder for you to heal.
Many patients believe that it is only physical factors—such as car accidents, bad pillows, and “the 190,000 kg that occasionally fall on their heads”—that can cause nerve interference, when in reality it is the daily barrage of toxins from hidden foods and stressful thoughts that usually do the most damage. .
