When the body is no longer adapting to its environment in an appropriate manner, the result may be pain and decreased physical or mental performance. This failure of the body to adapt and maintain homeostasis may be linked to an upper cervical vertebra fixed in a misaligned position, causing a subluxation or interference to the the nervous system - the link between the brain and body.
To eliminate nervous system interference at the root level, a specific, three dimensional vectored adjustment must be performed on the atlas or axis vertebra to unlock them, restoring proper weight bearing of the spinal column and proper function to the brain-stem and spinal cord. With the pressure off the brain-stem area, the nervous system regains its ability to transmit electrical impulses to and from the brain and body without interruption. The final result is that the body’s Innate healing ability is able to express itself more freely, and the body is able to overcome many detrimental conditions under its own power – without the aid of mind and body altering substances or surgical intervention.
Benefits may include:
Care begins when informed consent is given to proceed under Specific Chiropractic. Prior to consent, it is encouraged that prospective patients read the free article, Thought, Traumas, & Toxins, available here, to familiarize themselves with our philosophy. Attending a presentation by Dr.Smith is highly encouraged as it answers
most questions and builds a foundation of knowledge. It is common for the first visit at our office to take about one hour to complete. The patient is welcomed to the office, completes the history and purpose of visit form if not completed prior, and the examination begins with discussion of their case history and current condition. Dmonstration is given of the different instruments and analysis employed to arrive at the recommend plan of action to overcome their current health challenges.
The patient is then given a non-invasive, chiropractic and neurological examination, including palpation, Range of Motion, and neurological/orthopedic testing as indicated by their condition. If tests indicate, a precision cervical x-ray series must be taken in weight bearing position for analysis.
During the second visit of the examination, the specific x-ray series is analyzed and an additional nervous system examination is performed to determine the body's inclination of adaptation or pattern. The vertebral adjustment given is a resultant line of reduction introduced by intention and direction inversely proportional to the individually measured vertebral misalignment. It is gently and effectively delivered by hand. When we say every patient gets a specific, tailor made correction, we mean it. The patient then rests on a special table in a neutral spinal posture to help the body realign and hold the adjustment.
After resting, the patient is then instructed with a list of “Dos and Don’ts”, and escorted to the front desk where their next nervous system check up is scheduled. On subsequent visits, adjustment may or may not be required, depending upon the patient's ability to hold the previous correction. When delivered appropriately, the adjustment should be the exception, not the rule. During the next visits, the doctor will pay special attention to determine if the patient is holding or slipping back into
pattern.
Dr. Smith has helped me very much. I feel his knowledge has made my injury much better. Thank you - Dave B.
