Benefits of Atlas Orthogonal Chiropratics
The Atlas Orthogonal Chiropratic Doctor has advanced training in the structure, function and bio-mechanics of the very top spinal vertebrae of the upper cervical spine ( just under the skull ).
The balance of the human body is maintained by the precise interaction of the muscles and nervous system which permit the skeleton to move and flex in an unrestricted manner. Much of the complicated system of nerves is housed and protected by the spinal vertebrae.
Ironically, these same spinal vertebrae when not moving properly, are often the underlying cause of our bodies organ and system disease, pain, and loss of mobility. When the vertebrae are out of alignment, the condition is referred to as Subluxation.
Since the human body is called upon to function largely in an upright position, its spinal column must be able to support its ever shifting weight as the body walks, runs, lifts and bends.
A “normal” curve of the spine is admirably suited to the task of comfortably keeping the body’s center of gravity properly positioned over its supporting legs. When the spine is curved abnormally because the spinal vertebras have slipped out of proper alignment (even by the smallest degree) profound consequences occur which may, if left untreated, affect the health of the entire body, This is especially true when misalignment occurs in the neck (cervical spine).
Even though the doctor of Chiropractor specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal conditions, the care of the affected area often results in dramatic improvements in the patients health of other parts of the body, not generally thought of as being associated with the spine.
Chiropratics treatments greatly help patients with the following conditions:
- headaches of all kinds
- low back and spinal pain
- chronic fatigue
- seizures
- asthma
- MS
- parkensons
- brain injuries
- bed wetting
- fibromyalgia
- dizziness
- hearing, & vision changes
- and other conditions involving the body
Cures & Healing
With drugs, surgery, medicine, chiropractic, homeopathy, osteopathy, acupuncture, and all other forms of healing, the primary goal is to give the body a break so it’s ability to heal can be restarted. Without a properly functioning nervous system, the body can not experience complete healing.
The biological functions of our bodies follow the neurology. In other words, when the nervous system is healthy, the bodies biological systems have a chance to correct and heal itself from within as it was designed to do by our creator. Chiropractic does not cure conditions or disease, the bodies own systems and creator do the work.
In human beings and animals, regardless of the cause, when the critical alignment if the spinal column is disturbed, nature tries to self correct, and immediately repair and heal abnormal structural stress and disease or damage. The doctor of Chiropractic’s specialized training uniquely equips that doctor to aid and speed up that inate healing process with advanced methods which like nature’s own, are safe, effective, very cost effective & generally painless.
The Atlas
The atlas is the top, very upmost vertebrae located just under the skull (see photo on right). It is the most complex area of the spinal column, having the most complex ranges of motion. The boney atlas surrounds the soft brain stem and beginning of the spinal cord. The verteberal arteries pass thru the atlas directly supplying all areas of the brain (except for smell).
The bodies righting mechanism and core balance center is directly effected by Atlas alignment. With corrected alignment of the Atlas the nervous system calms, and restarts.
“Adjusting the atlas is the most rewarding thing in the world. The greatest pleasure is to see people improve, recover their health and enjoy life.
