What Are Subluxations?
We call it sub-lux-a-tion, and I want to talk to you about it today since it may be new to you but has a big impact on your child's health.
Understanding subluxation and how it impacts our children's health is vital for parents. Once you are aware of what a subluxation is, you will put tremendous effort into figuring out how to eliminate it.
Subluxation is stress on the nervous system, which can cause a variety of disorders, including digestive problems, sensory problems, emotional and behavioral difficulties, and immune system problems.
The opposite of subluxation is a healthy neurological system that controls the stomach, immunological system, and motor system, as well as synchronizes everything with your child's brain or hard drive.
You won't normally learn about subluxation from a typical pediatrician or doctor's office.
Unfortunately, the medical definition of a subluxation is archaic and oversimplified, which obscures the neurological aspect of the condition.
This is where pediatric chiropractic with a neurological focus may help; this is our area of expertise.
As parents it's important to grasp the science of subluxation. So let's create a visual breakdown.
A skilled pediatric chiropractor with a neurological focus can address the serious problem of subluxation.
By determining whether it's the underlying cause of your child's health problems, you can take action to eliminate subluxation and get your child's health back on track.
Three Components of Subluxation
A three-part issue exists with subluxation.
First, the neuromotor system, which consists of the musculoskeletal and neuro spinal systems, is out of alignment. The most important motor system in our bodies is the spine.
Second. Fixation, which is more accurately described as tension or changed tone, is the result of spinal misalignment.
You've probably heard about proprioception, tone, coordination, and other motor-based difficulties if you've taken your kid to a pediatric therapist.
These are the initial symptoms of subluxation, which affect much more than the musculoskeletal system.
Because it results in neurological imbalance in the brain and nervous system, the third component of subluxation is where the real problem lies. This is Dysautonomia, which is defined as interference and imbalance in the central or autonomic nervous system.
Your child's ability to thrive, grow, digest, sleep, rest, and use their immune system might be significantly impacted when subluxation shifts the nervous system to dominate in the sympathetic "fight or flight" mode.
Although we must have the nervous system's "gas pedal" side in order to survive, this is not where we flourish. We cannot grow, digest, sleep, or rest if our foot is constantly on the gas pedal.
Therefore, a stressed-out nervous system is what happens when the spine and the neurospinal structural system are put under too much stress.
Our connection to the central autonomic nerve system, which is how God created us, is made possible through this neurospinal system.
Subluxations modify how the nervous system functions
The skull and spine shield the brainstem and vagus nerve, which are components of the central nervous system, also known as the autonomic nervous system. Subluxations modify how this system functions. As neurologically focused chiropractors, it is our job to perform safe, gentle, drug-free adjustments to remove subluxations and alleviate stress.
3 Main Systems Are Affected by Subluxation
The digestive, immune, and motor systems are the three major systems in the body affected by subluxations in your child's nerve system.
Constipation, colic, and reflux can occur when there is subluxation because it inhibits gut motility and function. It also affects the immune system, making your child more susceptible to autoimmune diseases, respiratory problems, and ear infections.
Subluxation also has an impact on the motor system and developmental milestones, which may reduce your child's ability to reach significant milestones.
If your child is not sleeping well or is not developing normally, they may be experiencing sensory or behavioral difficulties as a result of too much stress that has built up in their nervous system.
INSiGHT Scanning Technology
In order to assess and identify the stress on your child's nervous system, our office uses INSiGHT scans. We are able to measure the stress and determine its specific location, quantity, and intensity.
This makes it possible to develop a personalized care plan to correct the subluxations and relieve stress.
Initial Exam STRESSED
When the neurospinal system is stressed a decrease in function results. INSiGHT scanning allows us to look deeply into the spinal nerve connections and understand the impact these subluxations have on the overall health of the patient. Note one sided red and blue lines.
Follow Up Exam HEALTHIER
Getting rid of subluxation can result in amazing natural neurological healing, which enhances the digestive, immunological, and motor systems. Your child will perform more effectively overall, have better sleep, and be able to regulate their emotions better. Note more balanced, less red and decreased blue lines.
