Maybe Dr. Kim can comment here. I know that the first cervical vertabrea(the atlas) is responsible for a great deal within the human body. If this is subluxated(out of position) its greatest effect will be seen in the lowering of the immune system. I believe very strongly in chiropractic as it has helped me to regain my energy (pre-paleo) and restored my overall well being. I look at chiropractic this way. The correction of vertebral subluxations to restore optimal nervous system functioning through sublte manipulations.(my own words) Use this analogy: If you were to wrap a string around the tip of your finger what would happen? At first the finger tip would turn purple, if left on long enough eventually it would go numb and the tissues would begin to die. How would you treat this? Would you take a drug for the pain and symptoms? Would you take an x-ray to see what was wrong? NO, you would remove the interference-the string. Chiropractic is the same. You remove the interference of the vertebra pushing on the tissues/nerves that casue inflammation and block the pathway for the messages. As a result, chiropractic allows the body to heal itself naturally. There is an enourmous power within us all, let the life that created you continue to heal and maintain you. Sorry for the run on, but I want to share this enourmous health benefit with all of you. And chiropractic should be paleo. ===== -kb.
