How can I get a Subluxation?
There are three main causes of a Vertebral Subluxation Complex. We call those
the 3 T's: Traumas, Toxins, Thoughts.
Any direct trauma to the spine can cause vertebrae to misalign and lead to
subluxation. Traumas to our spines begin at birth. Think of how much pressure
is exerted on a baby's neck as it enters the world in a normal delivery.
Add to that a pair of doctor's hands pulling and twisting the baby's neck
to aid the process. This stress is often enough to actually cause the tiny
bones to break in the infant's neck resulting in a stillbirth. If the neck
is not broken, there are often severe multiple Vertebral Subluxation Complexes.
This is one reason why I recommend that newborn babies get their spines
checked as soon as possible by a chiropractor. In fact, it is not infrequent
that you will see someone on the way home after giving birth stop by a
chiropractor's office. For more information on how chiropractic can help
your infants and children, please visit our "Chiro
Kids" section.
If we make it through the birth process, we encounter many subluxations in
the difficult childhood years. Falling, wrestling with other children,
and other common incidents lead to additional vertebral subluxation complexes.
As adults, injuries such as a car accident, a fall, or a sports injury can
causes bones in the spine to misalign. There are other types of trauma
that can cause a subluxation. For example, poor posture at work or while
sleeping and improper lifting habits can lead to multiple subluxations.
And then we are further insulted by the stresses of adulthood, the stresses
of anger and irritation, the stresses of environmental pollution, from
the air and water we drink, the foods we eat, and the drugs many take.
All of these produce more vertebral subluxations.
