What is the importance of Body Balance?

Dr. Roger Sperry, Ph.D., won the Noble Peace Prize by discovering that 90% of all the brains activity

Is used to balance your body within the gravitational field of the earth. He stated that if your body is

mechanically distorted (off balance) it begins to affect the 10% of the brain’s activity that controls all the

other bodily functions such as breathing, digestion, and thinking…

Interference… If the body framework (bone structure; spine) is in an off-balance or misaligned

position, it can impede the electrical or chemical (life giving) transmission of the nervous system which

controls every function of every cell in your body . This interference with the nervous system can

contribute to all kinds of symptoms and  medical conditions.

How is Body Imbalance determined?

Body Imbalance or postural distortion is determined by evaluating for a leg length disparity, a posture

analysis (is one shoulder higher than the other, is there anterior head carriage), by Palpation; feeling for

muscle spam and tension, and use of two scales to see if there is uneven weight distribution.

 As soon as the spinal correction is made, people often feel some of these changes.

                .      Alleviation of pain and symptoms

                .      Tired and/or relaxed feeling

                .      Lightheadedness – possible headache

                .      Cold-like symptoms as the body goes

                         through a cleansing process.

 .      Tingling or heat sensation as blood and oxygen

        circulation continues to normalize.

 .     Body elimination changes- either diarrhea or  

       constipation as the body adapts to change after

       the correction.

Most symptoms decrease immediately or the pain may change and move to another area of the body. 

All are signs that indicate that the Self-healing process is working.  The longer you have had an issue

or symptom, the longer it will generally take to respond to therapy.  It is very important for the doctor

to continue to monitor progress during the first weeks of care, to prevent any interruption of the healing

cycle.
