Subluxation
| 1. |
a minor misalignment of the segment of the
spine (vertebrae) causing irritation to a nerve with a loss
of normal function. |
|
| |
|
|
| 2. |
an interruption of
communication from the brain to any cell, tissue or organ in
the body. |
|
|
|
A
subluxation is a condition in which one or more vertebrae of the
spin is out of alignment. The spinal column ceases to work and move
correctly. A nerve is impinged and normal transmission of nerve
impulses is obstructed. The impingement interferes with the proper
function and healing process of other vital parts of the body.
Subluxations are caused by any stress
(physical, mental, or chemical) the person cannot adapt to. |
 |
|
 |
An
untreated subluxation may produce long term effects which may result
in permanent damage as the joint begins to undergo arthritic
change. In the early stages, subluxations affect only muscles,
ligaments or sometimes nerves.
Although extreme pain has been observed in some cases, it is more
often noticed as a discomfort, or not at all. If detected early, a
subluxation may respond well to chiropractic care with an excellent
chance for a complete and painless recovery. |
|
If the condition is
allowed to go untreated, the body will attempt to help support the
subluxated vertebra, but may deform instead. As the muscles become
more rigid, the disc starts to degenerate.
Over a period of time, the area becomes calcified, and the vertebrae
will actually begin to change shape. The longer the condition is
allowed to go untreated, the less chance there is for recovery.
What began as a minor problem or discomfort may lead to total
destruction of the join and irreversible damage to the nerve. |
