Nerve tissue
is so
important,
it is
protected by
bone. The
brain is
encased by
the skull,
and the
spinal cord
is covered
by 24-moving
bones of the
spinal
column.
Many
everyday
things can
cause these
bones to
lose their
normal
motion or
position.
This sets
off a chain
reaction
affecting
the spinal
bones,
nerves,
muscles,
soft
tissues, and
results in
degenerative
changes
throughout
the body.
Doctors
refer to
this as the
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex.
Besides
describing
how the
spine can
affect your
overall
health, the
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex
explains why
it takes
time to
restore
optimum
health. The
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex is
the
underlying
cause of
many health
problems and
is
recognized
by its five
component
parts.

More and
more
researchers
have
confirmed
the
far-reaching
effects of
abnormal
spinal
function.
Every day
we're
learning
more about
the
implications
of these
five
component
parts.
Because of
the
intricacies
of the
nervous
system, more
research is
being
conducted in
the areas of
immune
system
response,
aging,
hormonal
involvement,
and even
genetic
consequences.
Clearly, the
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex may
be one of
the most
common, yet
overlooked
sources of
health
problems.
The
detection,
reduction,
and
prevention
of the
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex is
the unique
domain of
the Doctor
of
Chiropractic.
If you
suspect that
you, or
someone you
know, may be
suffering
from the
Vertebral
Subluxation
Complex,
contact the
doctor below
for a
thorough
examination.
