At the Marc Bony Chiropractic Center in Mataró, we understand the importance of regular chiropractic care for maintaining spinal health and relieving subluxations.
Why so many visitors?
Have you ever had braces, or do you know anyone who has?
How long does it take to get your teeth straightened? Two years? Three years? Maybe four?
The good news is that the time it takes to get a correction to the spinal column is «a drop in the ocean» Compared to an orthodontist—in most cases, it would take you only 60 to 100 visits.
Subjecting your teeth to constant pressure over time is what would initially correct them to their normal position. The same can be said for the spine.
You should remember that The body WANTS to be healthy and free of subluxations. However, it's much more like a struggle between the muscles, ligaments, and tendons of your spine that haven't been properly trained to function as they should.
The adjustment pushes the bone in the right direction to help the body return to normal, and if the adjustment is performed periodically (to prevent the bone from slipping or ‘pulling’ the vertebrae back into their original position), the spine reaches a state of correction, and Your body is capable of restoring your health.
A subluxation (A vertebra that is out of its normal alignment and is putting pressure on the nerves) is like any other type of injury. This involves pulling, stretching, or twisting muscles and ligaments, and, in more severe cases—such as car accidents—it can even lead to joint tears. It takes time to heal.
Studies show that nerve damage itself takes even longer to heal. The problem is that, very often, This healing process is complicated or prolonged by old injuries, due to arthritis, due to age, poor nutrition, and not getting enough exercise.
And the real “bombshell” is—STRESS. These cause smaller «re-injuries,» which complicate the healing process and slow it down.
Also, remember: the muscles in your spine have a real physical memory that has become accustomed to a certain spinal alignment. Retraining that memory takes time and effort. However, considering all of this—your LIFE LINE (nervous system) is ultimately affected by your spinal condition—don’t you think it’s worth the effort?
