Major Medical Study On Chiropractic And Immunity
Many fields, including Chiropractic and Medicine, have shown that spinal misalignments can create visceral disease and immune dysfunction. A major medical study showed this link in 2004. The controlled study showed that vertebral correction treatment to reduce vertebral misalignments in patients with atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma. The study also focused on the different connections between visceral and immune dysfunction and vertebral deformities.
It Was A Large Study:
Among 120 atopic dermatitis patients who received spinal correction treatments every day, 106 (88%) showed improvement in skin itching and 86 (72%) showed improvement in skin condition.Among 240 atopic dermatitis patients who did not receive spinal correction treatments every day, we could not obtain a sure treatment effect.
There was over a 70 percent improvement in allergic diseases. We found that vertebral misalignment is a common and characteristic finding in patients with atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma.
“According to the results of this study the possibility may be considered that chronic nerve compression secondary to vertebral deformity in the thoracic region had a significant effect on the immune function of atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma patients. The adrenal cortex functions of these allergy patients may be in the chronic decline condition with this chronic nerve compression.”
You Are The Answer:
In order to understand how this works, you have to understand what happens when your nervous system is impacted and unable to communicate with the rest of your body. When your body goes into a “Fight or Flight” response due to a stressor (bear jumping out at you, hearing about a tragedy, etc) your body will respond accordingly. The first thing that happens is that your blood pressure, heart rate, blood clotting factors, blood fat, LDL cholesterol, insulin, and glucose go UP so you can adapt to your environment adequately. Your cell-mediated immune system goes down which decreases your sex hormone binding globulin resulting in a higher level of circulating sex hormones in your blood….leading to cancers, colds, influenza, and other infections.
The #1 risk factor in determining whether or not you will get a site specific cancer is by the amount of sex hormones you have in your blood. Your body decreases serotonin which down regulates learning and up regulates anxiety and fear centers in brain so you can react to the stressor more effectively; however, this leads to increased anxiety, fear, depression, and learning and attention deficits. This response is called adaptive physiology. These are all great things when you are being chased by a bear but not when they are happening all day, every day and you’re trying to live an abundant health-filled life!
Movement of the Spine creates stimulation of proprioceptors in the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and discs. Proprioception and mechanoreception are essential nutrients for balance and health of the brain and the entire mind and body. When a human has a Vertebral Subluxation, proprioception is diminished which is recognized by the body as a Stressor eliciting the stress response, putting the body into adaptive physiology. Every time. And if it is not removed it stays there chronically.
If you look at over 95% of chronic illness, they are all the result of chronic adaptive physiology due to a stressor: Cancer, Diabetes, Chronic Pain, Obesity, Heart Disease, Fatigue, Depression, Infertility, Decreased Libido, Insomnia, Acid Reflux, Constipation, Auto-Immune Issues, Alzheimer’s, Dementia, etc.
This is how “The 2004 Journal of Orthopedic Surgery” did a study and proved the relationship between vertebral deformities and allergic diseases. They concluded that chronic nerve compression secondary to vertebral deformity in the thoracic region had a significant effect on the immune function of atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma patients. The adrenal cortex functions of these allergy patients may be in the chronic decline condition with this chronic nerve compression. A sure treatment effect cannot be obtained without considering the nature and the function of the autonomous nerves. Wow!
So you understand where these breakdowns in your nervous communications come from
New research commissioned by the British Chiropractic Association (BCA) reveals that 32% of us spend over 10 hours sitting down every day, adding up to an amazing 32 years and 4 months of our lives.9
-On average, we spend 16 hours awake per day and 9.4 million of us spend over 75% of our waking day sitting.
-59% of the working population sit down all day at work, nearly 50% of those who work refuse to leave their desks, even for lunch!
-What do people do after work? 62% spend the majority of their evenings on their “behinds”.
“The typical classroom desk is uncomfortable and rigid and one size has to fit all students. In addition, students have to lean forward in the seat in order to take lecture notes.”
Another study out of Cornell University and published in Computers in Schools found the following:
- Children in elementary schools are at risk from sitting at improper workstations that have been designed with little or no regard for musculoskeletal development and this has implication for health problems.
- Sitting for more than short periods increase the risk for injury.
- Children’s developing musculoskeletal structures are especially vulnerable to postural trauma.
- Sitting not only causes problems in nervous system communication, it results in a lack of regular full spinal motion that is required to recover from the falls and accidents of normal daily life.
- The stressors associated with living in industrial society make it virtually impossible to avoid problems in nervous system communication without regular chiropractic care just like it is virtually impossible to avoid dental cavities without brushing and flossing your teeth.
- Sitting is to your spine what sugar is to your teeth. We have no genetic defense against sitting. We are genetically programmed for constant movement. And this is just a small part of the research that has been done. According to the gold standard of all healthcare delivered in our World (research), no other healthcare delivery system has what we have.That’s a fact.
May this be the beginning. You are the Answer! More to Come….
