The Subluxations
What patients want to know about subluxations.
Why have I never felt like talking about the subluxations?
Maybe I never felt like talking about the subluxations.
That's not a problem. In the past there was no sense in talking about cholesterol, AIDS or Alzheimer's disease.
Just like a musical chord, a subluxation can simultaneously involve bones, nerves, muscles, tissues and degenerative changes. You have more than 200 bones in your body. Every time two bones join at a joint, there can be movement.
Since the joints of your spine are so close to the spinal cord and nerve bundles, small variations in their range of motion can have serious effects.
Distorted communication between your neck and your body can cause all kinds of health problems. Like a mobile phone being carved, a subluxation can carve vital communications between your neck and neck. Since the part can be one of its most common causes, smart parents have their children's swimsuits checked for possible subluxations. If the vertebrae are “swallowed” and do not move correctly, they can irritate the delicate nerves.
If a joint is moved too much, the vertebrae can exert pressure on the surrounding nervous tissues. This can interfering with the “força vital” is transmitted through your nervous system, which facilitates communication between your neck and your body.
The result is a vertebral subluxation complex or simply a subluxation.
Physical trauma, chemical toxins and emotional stress can cause subluxations.
A subluxation does not only affect the bones and nerves. Muscles can tighten or become very weak. Discs, ligaments or other connective tissues can become inflamed. Osteophytes or arthritic degeneration may also appear.
Subluxations are serious! However, the most important characteristic of a subluxation is the effect it has on your nervous system. It compromises the way this system controls and regulates your body and this can have serious consequences.
The distortion of communication between your neck and your body can cause all kinds of health problems, beyond simple headaches and skeletal pain.
Your chiropractor is the only licensed health professional dedicated to the detection, reduction and prevention of vertebral subluxations. You are in good hands! How does a person come to have subluxations?
Subluxations have three basic causes. Physical causes include landings or falls, accidents, repetitive movements and the dropping of objects. Emotional causes include stress, grief and fear.
Chemical causes include alcohol, drugs, pollution and poor diet. How do I know if I have a subluxation? You can have them without even knowing it. In the same way that chills or cancer, subluxations can be present before a warning sign appears.
A thorough examination can reveal the position and severity of any subluxation you may have. Can subluxations heal on their own? Sometimes, yes. Today's tragic life is a constant cause of subluxations.
Fortunately, our bodies have the ability to self-correct many of these minor problems when we bend over, stretch or sleep at night. When they don't heal, you need a chiropractor! Can children have subluxations?
The first subluxation was probably caused by the split. Even the “modern” splitting methods can put severe pressure on the swimmer's spine. Lack of appetite, unexplained weakness and insomnia can be symptoms of spinal subluxations.
