The Crucial Need For Spinal Examinations!

By: Dr. Alan Rosenthal

Our bodies act as their own ecosystem, meaning that within each of us, we are interdependent on all the natural processes existing inside of us These processes add up to making us functioning human beings. We rely on a natural chain of events to allow us to breath, walk and talk. Each process and system are interrelated and act together to build us into healthy humans. In other words, we are greater than the sum of all our parts.

Working Together

When our digestive system is functioning every other cell in our body knows what is happening; when our lungs breathe, every cell in our body is aware that this is occurring; and when our heart pumps blood, our whole body is informed of it. Every part of the body is affected by every other part of the body.

To demonstrate the truth of this, think of an athlete performing. When an athlete needs his body to react, his muscles are told how to move, his heart rate increases, and he begins to breathe quicker. Many biochemical processes occur to produce usable energy instantaneously. The available energy is dependent on the quality of food, water, and air provided. All of this happens within seconds and the whole body is aware of this.

Our Innate Intelligence

We need an amazing intelligence within our bodies, which is responsible for running all of these processes simultaneously. This innate intelligence comes from our brain and nervous system, through our spine and to every part of our body, orchestrating the function of 70 trillion cells every second.

In fact, to show how amazing our innate intelligence is, our brain and nervous system processes 3,000,000,000,000 (3 trillion) bits of information per second, for our whole life. This information is telling every cell in our body how to do its job and when to do it. Amazingly, we are conscious of only 50 bits per second. This means that virtually all the functions in our bodies go on without us knowing it.

Sustaining Nerve Communication

Just imagine now, that for some reason some of this information could not get through to the body, there was a blockage of this crucial, life sustaining information. It is easy to see that health would be compromised.

The first place that this information leaves the central core of our bodies is through our spine. It becomes crucial to health, healing and wellness to allow the spine to function at 100%. If anyone has less than 100% spinal function they will have less than 100% nerve flow to their body. Since our innate intelligence determines the quality of our health, it will also have less than 100% health.

Subluxations Vs. Innate Intelligence

Science has shown beyond a doubt that vertebral subluxations block off our innate intelligence. When vertebral subluxations have existed in people for months or years without being detected, they begin to develop many disease processes. They have a lowered state of health and they feel like their body is failing in many different ways. All types of stresses and traumas cause vertebral subluxations.

Since we are not aware of the vast majority of vertebral subluxations in our spines, we should feel obligated to make sure our bodies our functioning at optimum levels. Every person should have a regular Chiropractic spinal examination to determine the quality of nerve supply to body and ultimately the quality of health and wellness.
