Back Discomfort From A Wallet

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic

Back Discomfort From A Wallet

Back discomfort from a wallet can be a very compromising situation for most.  Reason being is that many just find it awkward if their wallet is not resting in their back pocket.  Back discomfort from a wallet can be the source of many people’s pain or it can just be something that adds up over time.  It’s not like you are going to sit down on your wallet all of a sudden and have immediate back discomfort.  These things take time to manifest and to actually become a problem.  Think of your body as  a “house”, as many home owners know it takes work to make sure that house is properly functioning and a stable environment to live in.  Now, imagine if you are constantly putting that wallet in the back pocket and every time you are sitting down you are creating an unstable foundation (your basement keeps receiving structural blows).  You are not going to recognize the back discomfort initially, it will take time before you recognize “cracks” in your foundation.

Back discomfort from a wallet occurs over a long period of time.  Your body will begin to shift to accommodate for the wallet and create posture distortions throughout your entire spine.  These posture distortions will manifest as subluxations.  A subluxation is what chiropractors check your spine for and, if necessary, adjust.  Subluxations create dysfunction within your entire body by creating a central nerve system disturbance.  This disturbance will put your body on a constant state of protection and more specifically on the fast track for the stress response.  Back discomfort will not be apparent at first from a wallet, your body will develop signs and symptoms letting you know that organs, cells, tissues, and glands are not properly functioning.  Then, years down the road the back discomfort will appear.

Specific chiropractic adjustments will ensure that your body is healing and restoring normal spinal curvatures.  Taking the wallet out of the back pocket would most definitely help back discomfort.  Wallet out of the back pocket and specific chiropractic adjustments would ensure you are adapting and overcoming years of compensation.  Get checked!

Why Kids Chiropractic?

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic

Why Kids Chiropractic?

Why kids chiropractic?  Why not!  Our kids our going through some important milestones as they continue to grow and develop.  All of these developmental milestones are regulated and controlled by their nerve system.  Chiropractors are nerve system specialist who locate and if necessary adjust subluxations that create dysfunction in the body.  A subluxation creates a central nerve system discommunication with the rest of the body by placing stress on the nerve system itself.  Kids experience rapid development of their spine and nerve system in their first years of life.  By seeking regular chiropractic care, you allow your kid to develop and function to their optimal potential.  Chiropractic is noninvasive, no medication is required, and no surgery is required.  Specific chiropractic adjustments allow the body to heal by returning normal communication to and from brain to body.

In some cases people might say that kids chiropractic is not valid because they don’t have back pain  Back pain?  Judging our child’s health based on pain is a flawed system.  When we say that adjustments allow the body to heal by returning normal COMMUNICATION to and from brain to body, we are saying that initially there has to be a disconnect.  A disconnect in the human body occurs at the nerve system level, specifically speaking a subluxation.  A disconnect allows signs and symptoms to appear: colic, constipation, digestive issues, ear infections, sensory processing disorders, asthma, allergies and other challenges.  Our newborn child or developing kid is not going to be telling us about pain, they are going to be admitting sign and symptoms to let us know that something is wrong.  Kids chiropractic focuses on improving proper development by allowing the body to communicate without a disconnect.  Suffering from health challenges for a kid is not the way to go nor is it normal development.  Kids chiropractic is for all kids regardless of challenges to ensure a sustainable life.

Asthma And Chiropractic Care

Asthma And Chiropractic Care

 

Asthma and chiropractic care.  Most do not understand this statement or why someone would seek chiropractic care for it.  Realize that any sign and symptom your body produces is a red flag that something is not working right.  A sign and symptom is a central nerve system disturbance that is created via a subluxation.  A subluxation is what chiropractor’s locate and adjust if necessary.  A subluxation creates dysfunction within the nerve system by limiting the messages your body should be receiving from brain to body and vice versa.  Having a subluxation that exists for any extended period of time will significantly limit your potential in life.

Asthma and chiropractic care locates the cause of your dysfunction in your body.  Asthma is often related to the alignment of the first and second thoracic vertebrae.  These two vertebrae have nerves that exit and support and control your lung fields as well as your tubes.  Imagine if there was pressure upon these nerves, your body is not going to be responding and functioning the way it is supposed to be.  Asthma and chiropractic care look at your body as an entire unit with the understanding that your nerve system is the master controller.  Asthma and chiropractic care realizes that your immune system is compromised.  Your central nerve system regulates and controls your immune system.  asthma and chiropractic care

Asthma and chiropractic is and should be your first response.  Chiropractic care is not going to cure anything, it is going to allow your body to heal and restore normal function.  No medication is required, no surgery has to be performed, just specific chiropractic adjustments.  Asthma and chiropractic care is a way to live to your fullest without the need of restrictions.   Everyone is designed to be healthy, naturally.  Use the resources in your community if you are suffering and live to your fullest.  

Symptoms represent the body’s best efforts to heal itself.  By treating symptoms, you are suppressing the body’s natural response and inhibiting the healing process.  Instead of treating symptoms, doctors should stimulate the body’s defense to allow for completion of the healing process – Dr. Stephen Cummings

Adrenal Fatigue

By | ADHD, Benefits of Chiropractic, Ear Infections

Adrenal Fatigue

The amazing adrenal glands and the huge publicity they have been gaining lately is due in part to the awareness of our body.  Adrenal fatigue is an issue that goes on for an extended period of time without us knowing about; it becomes “normal.”  Your adrenal glands are responsible for your fight or flight response.  Lately, in the Montana news have been a lot of reports of bear encounters.  Imagine if you are a hunter or hiker and you encounter that big Grizzly, you are either going to fight or “flight” (or play dead).  Now, with regards to your body and adrenal fatigue, imagine if your body is constantly fighting chronic illness. Chronic illness is associated with adrenal fatigue due to the amount of stress that plagues your body.  Chronic illness is any sign and symptom that keeps reappearing over and over again.  You have to realize that it is not normal to have any sign or symptom.adrenal fatigue

Adrenal fatigue happens as your body  constantly fights to survive.  If you have a sign or symptom, it’s not like you are just going to wither off and die!  Your body is going to enter that fighting mode and protect you by eliciting signs and symptoms.  Having signs and symptoms for an extended period of time brings about adrenal fatigue.  To help decrease the adrenal fatigue you have to first look toward the spine.  This is due to the fact that any sign or symptom is directly related to dysfunction within your nerve system.  Specific chiropractic adjustment’s restore proper function to your entire body by allowing your nerve system to function at it’s optimal potential.  This in turn will eliminate your signs and symptoms and decrease your adrenal fatigue.

Understand that your body is hard-wired to function together.  If a sign and symptom is present then something is not working correctly. Instead of focusing specifically and solely on what’s wrong, you need to look at the body as a unit.  Why else would you have an ailment and have to suffer through adrenal fatigue?  Because your body is stressed!  Decrease your adrenal fatigue by having your nerves checked!  Overcome your signs and symptoms by allowing your body to function as a unit correctly!

Posture

By | Benefits of Chiropractic, Ear Infections

Posture

The word posture plays a huge role in our day to day lives.  A seemingly small thing that adds up over time.  For some we assume proper posture is sticking the chest out and holding our head up straight.  This definitely plays a role, yet there are more important factors that directly affect this.  When referring to posture we are talking about our spine.  Our spine encases and protects our most important component of our body, our nerve system.  When looking at someone from the front they should have no curves in their body (spinal curvatures that is).  When viewing somebody from the side though, there should be three spinal curvatures.  We have to remember that gravity effects us our entire life (kind of an important thing), and hose spinal curvatures serve to act as giant shock absorber’s as we go through life.posture

What plagues our overall posture?  The most notorious factor that can wreak havoc on our everyday posture is sitting.  Sitting distorts and imposes improper weight upon our spine which has a direct correlation on how our body functions.  This is due to the fact that when our nerve system has improper curvatures our entire body works differently.  Think of it this way, telephone poles are usually straight so that they can send messages back and forth without disturbance.  When a telephone line is down, there is no communication to be delivered.  A downed power line is similar to that of a subluxation.  A subluxation is when a spinal bone moves and applies direct pressure upon a nerve thus disturbing the flow of communication from your brain to your body.  Improper posture creates dysfunction within the entire body because your communication is inhibited.  Poor posture over time can create such disturbances as subluxations.  

Subluxations are re-occurring downed power lines that disrupts your entire body.  Improper posture over time can maintain and support these subluxations in a negative way.  This occurs by your body giving you signs and symptoms to let you know that something is WRONG.  Specific chiropractic adjustments will and do help correct posture by removing the interference (subluxation), thus allowing your body to maintain proper function.
