Subluxation: “The Silent Killer”

By: Dr. Alan Rosenthal

Vertebral subluxation is the condition where spinal vertebra shift and put pressure on the nerves, causing improper life-giving messages to be sent to the body. This creates poor health and many health and wellness problems that people experience daily. The reason subluxation is known as the “silent killer” is because you cannot feel it. You can only feel the pain, dysfunction, sickness and the disease it has left behind.

The 10 to 90 Percent Ratio

Most of your life you may have determined how healthy you were according to symptoms that you did or did not have. The truth is that you are capable of feeling no more than 10 percent of what happens in your body. When was the last time you felt your kidneys, your immune system, or your pancreas?

If you continue to evaluate your health only on what you can feel, then you have to admit that you may not know what is happening to the other 90 percent of your body and are potentially building a health crises. If vertebral subluxations are blocking nerve supply to crucial organs and systems without your ability to feel them, then wouldn’t it be important to check and see how your spine is working?

Your brain and nervous system run your whole body and you are not aware of 90 percent of these functions. The internal health and wellness of your body is directly proportional to the health of your spine and nervous system. For this reason, it is crucial that everyone has at least one examination to see if they have vertebral subluxations.

The Impact of Subluxations on Your Health

Vertebral subluxations impact on health leads to a large range of health problems, including ear infections, headaches, sinus infections, allergy, stomach problems, muscle aches, pain, fatigue, stress, sleeplessness, organic diseases and so many more. These problems are exhibited in all age groups from newborns to senior citizens, which is why family chiropractic can be extremely beneficial for all members.
