Thanks for sharing such a nice post with us here. It really attracted me a lot and I book marked your blog for future reference. Santa Barbara Chiropractic. We have to be Try the simple approach first. I am agree with you to try it and sure that it will be very handy for us and knowing very important something.
I will share this to my friends. Five Dock physiotherapist. Scott Conklin, D. Aerospace engineer, Gonstead diplomate, Learn More. Sunday, April 25, Try the simple approach first. Many times our patients will present to us a multitude of seemingly complex symptoms.
Patients with neck pain, many times, will have pain in their arms or hands, headaches, sinus problems, dizziness, just to list a few. Patients with mid back pain, many times, will have digestive problems, such as acid reflux, pain with deep breathing, etc. The Gonstead system of chiropractic focuses on first trying to normalize the function of two adjacent vertebras through a specific adjustment based on the physical finding of localized pitting edema, decreased intersegmental ROM, heat changes in the involved dermatome, and point tenderness.
Then we correlate these findings to the weight bearing X-rays. This gives us the specific line of drive, torque and depth needed for a successful correction. We find, most of the time, many of these associated symptoms will resolve on their own with improved function in the spinal biomechanics. If not, an appropriate referral is made.
How can this help you? There is a simple exam that can be used to screen our patients, helping us to see whether there may be a spinal intersegmental dysfunction [subluxation] related to their condition. The exam is simple and easy to perform.
