Nervous system,health and Vitality-Chicago chiropractic


Let's start at the begining .How do you develop in the womb?? There is no one directing growth ,yet as human beings ,we are very similar. We have 2 eyes facing forward , a nose in the middle of our face ,2 arms and legs in the exact same position as others.
At 28 days the first organ that develops is the brain then comes spinal chord .At that time you look like a balloon on a string.The chord thickens and spinal nerves extend out on both sides throughout the spinal chord.Organs,bones,blood vessels all develop attached to the nervous system and thus the brain.

There is only one brain in this system and it determines everything that happens to you!It is essential the brain communicates with the body and back again.When that is present ,there is 100% communication , 100% vitality, 100% health and 100% function.Your nervous system controls everything from your automatic breathing and heartbeat to muscles moving, immune system working ,digestion , all organ function and even what your skin can feel. EVERYTHING! If communication is decreased, it is like static on the line and your body doesn't know how to work properly and in the future dis-ease appears.

Chiropractors remove nerve interference {or subluxations }so your whole body functions with a higher vitality and function.This is the only place I know where one procedure,an adjustment, tunes up your whole body's ability to function .So all the other things you might do for health, exercise, correct foods, nutritional supplements, sleep will be amplified with the benefits of a tuned up nervous system.

CHIROPRACTIC and SPINAL RESEARCH
Infertility. A 23-year-old woman with a history of infertility, amenorrhea (no menstrual cycle), low back pain and six weeks of progressively worsening numbness and tingling in both of her legs and feet began chiropractic care. She had a six-year history of birth control use. She was unable to conceive. Under chiropractic care her low back pain and leg and feet numbness completely resolved. She had her first natural menstrual cycle 3 ½ months after beginning care and discovered she was pregnant one month later. (6) ADD/ADHD. A seven-year-old girl with ADD/ADHD (hyperactivity and attention deficit disorder) and focusing problems, sleep disturbances and aggressive, negative behavior toward her sister was brought in for chiropractic care. Improvements were noted on the daughter's weekly behavioral assessments. The mother noticed an overall change in her attitude as well as improvement with specific tasks. (7) Whiplash. Forty-one patients with whiplash injuries (age 17-67) received chiropractic care. After 20 visits over a 10 week period the patients went from a pain level of 7.1 to a pain level of 0.6. (8)

How Important Your Nervous System Is -Chicago Chiropractic


Seaman Chiropractic Center presents:


Your nerves help regulate and coordinate the function of your entire body. As you can see in the illustration to the left, nerves start in your brain and branch out down your spine and go, well, everywhere!
If there is an imbalance in your spine or body structure causing nerve stress (a subluxation) any organ, gland, muscle, joint, disc or blood vessel may be affected. Even your brain can be affected in varying degrees. Pressure caused by nerve stress (a subluxation) can affect the health of your entire being.
Chiropractors are trained to locate and correct nerve stress, permitting you to function closer to your natural, healthful state - adding years to your life and life to your years.

You need them for a good golf swing, dancing, a healthy pregnancy and to support your spine (and head). They anchor your legs so you can walk and you sit on them too. It's your hips!
Your hips are really two large bones (each made up of three fused bones) that are attached to your sacrum - the base of your spine. They are strapped to your sacrum with lots of ligaments. Around your hips are lots of tendons that attach to many muscles.
If your spine is out of alignment (it's subluxated), your hips may "do the twist" causing one leg to appear shorter than the other.
One leg isn't really shorter than the other. It just seems that way because your legs attach to your hips. If one hip is a little higher than the other then one leg appears longer and one appears shorter. This is most obvious when you lie down. That's why chiropractors sometimes have patients lie down (usually face down) to measure their leg length difference. This is one sign your body structure is off-balance. Apart from causing problems with your tailor, uneven hips can cause unnatural wear and tear on your spine, arthritis or lumbar (lower back) disc bulging, which can lead to leg and sciatica pain. If your pubic bones (the front of your hips) are not aligned it may cause sacroiliac pain and pain during pregnancy and childbirth.
Unhappy hips also can cause fatigue and exhaustion because you will be out of alignment with gravity.
Signs of hip problems include a bad golf swing, difficulty standing or sitting for long periods, leg problems, knee pain and foot problems such as bunions. Hip problems can also cause shoulder problems - your hips and shoulders work together - if one is moving improperly the other's motion will be affected.
What to do? A chiropractic checkup will help ensure a healthy hip and pelvis - and ensure that your spine has a good, balanced pedestal from which to work.
This is especially important during childhood - that's why infants, babies and children of all ages should get a chiropractic checkup. It can help ensure a healthier body for life.
