This means that when we are out of upper cervical alignment and our posture has become disordered, we are using valuable energy to just hold ourselves upright that ideally goes into thinking, metabolism and immune function.
How many of us feel fuzzy headed, or brain fog when we are out of adjustment?
Does your digestion change?
How about sleep patterns?
Most of us already know about the multitude of aches and pains that can be associated with being out of upper cervical alignment. What you may not realize though, are the real problems that will eventually accumulate when we must chronically use our precious energy to adapt to being out of line. Upper cervical misalignment can be a progressive and degenerative problem.
Fortunately, many of you also realize the incredible change that can take place when the upper cervical misalignment is corrected. So many folks who come in for care have told me over the years about the incredible turn around that occurred when they got corrected and made the commitment to stay in alignment. There are many who tell me they would not be walking if not for upper cervical care.
I find that upper cervical care is truly primary health care. What I mean by this is that removing nervous system interference at the upper cervical area (top of the neck) is a critical step in the improvement of health. Many of my patients have been able to wean themselves off not just pain medications, but many other medications that they’d had to take on a long term basis because of the troubling symptoms that may have developed due to long term upper cervical misalignment. They just didn’t have the debilitating problems anymore. They could begin to refocus back on their life. And, the money they were spending on these suppressive drugs could be better spent in other areas of their life!
Some folks use the upper cervical correction like they do the emergency room. They only come in when they are in terrible trouble and want a quick and miraculous ‘fix’. The upper cervical correction can often give them this ‘fix’ but the effects of living out of alignment for weeks and months takes it toll. The upper cervical misalignment is a problem even more so the longer that it is there. Once you are out of alignment, problems will slowly or not so slowly, begin to pile up. Arthritis could be one part of the many attempts by your body to adapt to being twisted and unlevel. Poor posture is another possibility and tends to wear down the joints and create inflammation and pain.
The upper cervical correction is our Health’s best friend. Getting checked periodically through out the year is a wonderful and cost effective way to stay healthy and allow your inner wisdom the chance to work to its fullest.
