Scoliosis Care

The “S” word… Scoliosis.  Scoliosis is an irregular curvature in the spine that is often misdiagnosed and associated with any slight deviation of normal.  In order to truly have scoliosis, your spine has to have a certain degree of curvature to classify specifically as scoliosis.  Scoliosis care is fundamental with specific chiropractic care to ensure that proper adjustments are maintaining and if caught early enough can reverse the curves in scoliosis.  The spine has an incredibly  important job to protect the most important thing in your entire body, the central nerve system.  Without proper function of your central nerve system the body is in a constant state of disorder.  Your body is designed to stand strong and straight for a lifetime as long as you keep it in balance.  Neglect your spine and your health comes crumbling down.  Specific chiropractic adjustments allow your body to re-align and ensure optimal function.

Scoliosis Care When Young

Scoliosis care is not just for adults, it is vitally important to access and stop scoliosis as a child.  As the human body is growing at a young age there is a total of 33 spinal bones that will form into the adult skeleton of 26.  Maintaining proper and specific alignment of the bones as they develop comes with regular check-ups with your chiropractor.  Any deviation of normal for your spine can cause improper development.  Why?  As stated earlier, the spine protects and allows essential communication  for central nerve system.  The Nerve system regulate’s and control every single experience your body encounters or will encounter.  Progression of uncorrected scoliosis can lead to health consequences later down the road by inhibiting the role of the central nerve system.  Think of your spine as an information highway, it is constantly sending and receiving messages to make sure your body is at optimal function.  Any deviation of a normal spine will produce constant “road-blocks” in how your body functions.

Migraine Headaches The Cause

Migraine Headaches The Cause

What is the true cause of your migraine headaches?  When dealing with migraine headaches we first need to understand the body.  Understanding the body begins with the central nerve system.  The central nerve system is the master controller, every single experience good or bad that you encounter with your body is regulated and controlled via your central nerve system.  It could be as easy as saying have a migraine headache, blame your central nerve system.  Granted, there is more to it than that.

Migraine headaches are associated with dysfunction within the neck region, specifically speaking the lower portion.  A migraine headache is a chemical imbalance within the body, hormones, proteins, cells, all miscommunicating and creating a quagmire in  your body.  This dysfunction is related to how the nerves are communicating to your organs, cells, tissues, and glands.  Without proper nerve function your body begins to show you initial signs and symptoms of a migraine.

One of the most common signs of a migraine headache that many people endure are visual aura’s.  A visual disturbance that your body is giving you has to start and originate from somewhere.   You can blame the eyes, yet that is just the effect of something bigger happening.  Visual aura’s are common and easy to grasp because we should recognize them as not only visual disturbances but something bigger that is happening with our body.

What you often experience as signs and symptoms originate from your body’s inability to correctly adapt and function at your optimal potential.  Stress from everyday life can add up and create dysfunction on how you operate on a day to day basis.  When a subluxation occurs within the body, it creates an entire central nerve system dysfunction.  A subluxation being what chiropractor’s are trained to locate and adjust if necessary.

Headache – What You Need To Know

Headache giving you troubles?  Let’s get to the source of the headache and understand the dynamics of why your body is doing what it is.  A headache is a broad term for any type of specific pain/discomfort located in the head/neck region. There are several different types of classifications for headaches and how they are specifically classified.  Tension headaches, cluster headaches, migraine headaches, sinus headaches, and rebound headaches (hangovers don’t count, you should know your cause for that one).  Several factors are directly responsible for headaches: emotional stress, poor posture, physiological factors, diet, and the most important: the central nerve system.  A headache initially is your bodies way of trying to tell you something that is wrong, it’s a red flag, an alert system that something is amiss.  A sign or symptom is your body’s best way of functioning at that time.  When the headache becomes constant and begins to re-appear on a daily basis, weekly basis, or monthly basis, you never really are healing or overcoming the headache.  When headaches begin to become chronic occurrences in your life, help should be sought out.  This help comes with specific chiropractic care.

Specific chiropractic care allows your body to heal and to adapt to your headache so you overcome it!  By taking x-ray’s and accessing the spine chiropractors are trained to locate specific interference’s within your body and to adjust if necessary.  An interference in the central nerve system comes about in the form of a subluxation.  A subluxation places undo stress upon a specific nerve thus creating a quagmire of events in the entire central nerve system all together.  As a consequence of having a subluxation, your body will begin to give you signs and symptoms, which one can be headaches.  Over 70% of all headaches arise from problems with the cervical spine and its related structures – Canadian Family Physician.  By having your nerve system checked on a regular basis you can allow your body to heal/adapt to your headaches and live your life to your fullest potential.

Asthma In Kids The Epidemic

Asthma In Kids The Epidemic

Asthma in kids the epidemic in our society is steadily on the rise and has been for some time.  Did you know that approximately 6.8 million kids in the United States suffer from chronic asthma.  Asthma in kids is not something that usually makes the front headlines, yet is a daily struggle for those who have to endure it and the struggle is real.  For those parents who have children with asthma, probably the research has been done on ways to improve their “condition”.  We understand that the airways are under constant strain by either a spasm or a hypersensitivity to something in the environment.  Treating the symptoms of asthma in kids usually is found with respiratory inhalers or suppressing all symptoms together by administering steroid use.  These methods might be necessary for severe instances or certain circumstances, yet we are still suppressing a child’s ability to thrive and develop.  Need to understand that the body is trying to adapt and to heal from something that is disturbing the ultimate functionality of breathing.

Asthma in kids and everyone else is triggered for a specific reason.  Specifically the lower portion of the neck directly regulates and controls the airways and how they function.  These nerves are sending information for cells, tissues, and everything that those airways need.  If and when a subluxation in the spine occurs at a specific level in the neck it disrupts the entire functioning of the respiratory system.   A subluxation is when one or more vertebrae place undo stress upon a nerve creating an entire central nerve system dysfunction.  This can lead to the airways being under constant strain to produce air and efficient amounts of it.  As a consequence asthma in kids can manifest and continue to plague the quality of life.  Now, we are not saying that we are going to cure asthma in kids.  What chiropractic allows is to specifically locate and adjust subluxations, in return allowing the body to heal and adapt to the stress.  By restoring proper communication via the central nerve system the body has no other option but to correctly process and perceive all in-coming and out-going information.  Get those nerves checked!
