The spine houses the spinal cord, and movements of the spine send messages up to the brain which then send messages down to the rest of the body telling it what to do, giving it life. It is imperative therefore for the spine to moving optimally. We have no idea how important it is for the spine to be moving optimally. If there are any blockages in the spine, affecting the messages to and from the brain, to the organs, the organs that are supplied by those nerves start to show signs of dis-ease within 6 weeks! Within a couple of months the cells start to die.
Chiropractors are experts in assessing spinal movements and function and restoring loss of movement and function. And in doing so, are affecting people’s brains and ultimately their lives! The way they see or perceive the world, the way they function, their quality of life, their health, their relationships, their jobs! Wow! Isn’t that amazing?!
The number of people living to the age of 100 is growing. The people that have reached the age of 100, when asked if they thought they would, said no. A question then would be, if you knew you were going to live to 100, what would you do differently to look after your body to ensure that you are comfortable and still fit and able at the age of 100?
So whether you have symptoms or not, get your spine checked by a chiropractor! Make sure that it is moving optimally to ensure that you can function at your peak, and live your life to the fullest, for the very short time that you have on this earth!
