ENSURING OPTIMAL MOBILITY FOR EVERY JOINT IN YOUR BODY!

Chiropractic has the incredible ability to restore the correct movement of spinal bones and relieve nerve irritation. It's not just the spine that can be affected though; other joints in the body can also lose their normal motion and position. By utilizing chiropractic techniques, not only can range of motion be improved, but painful inflammation can also be reduced. The best part? All of this can be achieved without the need for drugs or surgery!

The incredible benefits of chiropractic care extend beyond just the spine. In fact, virtually every joint in your body can experience fixations that hinder proper function and range of motion. Whether it's due to trauma, micro-traumas, vibrations, or repetitive motions, these joint problems can be effectively addressed through chiropractic care. So, whether it's your spine, jaw, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle, foot, or any other joint, chiropractic care can help restore optimal function and provide relief without the need for drugs or surgery.

Here's a fascinating fact: did you know that your joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments all send valuable information to your brain? In fact, a whopping 80% of your brain's stimulation comes from this upstream information. It's truly incredible how interconnected our bodies are!

When the sensors in our tissues fail to provide complete and accurate information to the brain, it hinders the proper transmission of signals to the muscles responsible for controlling our body. This disruption activates pain nerves, and also causes abnormal muscle firing patterns and contractions. Put simply, when a joint is not functioning correctly, it fails to send the brain the necessary information that indicates movement in a specific direction. As a result, our body triggers a pain signal to grab our attention.

Chiropractic care has long been associated with spinal adjustments, pain relief, and improved musculoskeletal health. However, a growing body of research and a dynamic neurological-based chiropractic model are shedding light on the critical role chiropractic care plays in optimizing neurological function and overall well-being.

In this blog post, we will explore the dynamic neurological-based chiropractic model and its contribution to improving afferent input to the brain. We will also discuss the pivotal role of Dr. L. John Faye, DC, in advancing this model. Furthermore, we will delve into the concept that muscle coordination and recruitment order are influenced by mechano-receptor afferentation, which can be compromised when joints are restricted, blocked, or fixated. Additionally, we will emphasize the importance of a closed kinematic chain and how it relates to the effectiveness of chiropractic care. Throughout this discussion, we will provide references and evidence to support these concepts. Don't worry we will define all these terms 😀!

Good health is your natural state

You are born to live a life of vitality, strength, peace and happiness – you are supposed to be healthy your entire life. That life should be long and full of joy, excitement, pleasure, and fulfillment.

But it doesn’t always happen that way. Too many people are not living to their potential; they are living with physical and mental disease.

It isn’t right. You have the potential for physical and mental health and you owe it to yourself to drink from that deep well. 

What are some of the things you can do to reclaim health for yourself and your family and to maintain your health throughout the years?

In the closing days of World War I, a deadly form of influenza ("flu") appeared. The influenza pandemic of 1917-1918 claimed more lives than the war.

During this crisis, doctors of chiropractic noticed that their patients seemed to have a lower fatality rate than the general population. Although this chiropractic observation remains unpublished in the peer-reviewed literature (since no scholarly journals were willing to publish chiropractic data in those days), a study was published by the osteopathic profession. ¹   Among doctors of osteopathy of the time, it was routine to check patients' spines for "osteopathic lesions" (what we know as "subluxations"), and to correct them with manipulation. Due to this similarity, the osteopathic publication effectively verifies the chiropractic experience.
