method safe and very necessary to maintain the apparatus skeletal muscle in proper operation, which uses manual manipulations achieving the general improvement and mobility necessary for a normal life.
This reliable method gives excellent results to treat various conditions such as: pain and stiffness of the neck, back pain, blades attached, low back pain, pain in sacrum numb knees, vertebrae out of place, stiff joints, pain in shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers, etc.
Through this efficient technique manual restore or maintain the health of your body structure.
Chiropractic advocates a holistic vision of the human body, and the search for the restoration of health by manipulating certain organizational structures, especially the spine.
This is a therapeutic system that is based on the scientific theory that many diseases are the result of disorders in the innervation of tissues, that is why ill; cure can be obtained through a good handling of the structures of the body.
Chiropractic takes a belief characteristic of some streams medical, most of the time, disease is the body's natural response to an abnormal situation, so what to do from a therapeutic point of view is to try to help the spontaneous body resources.
Well, must now be taken into account that there is any part of the body that not a dense network of nerve fibers that leave brain reached and the spinal cord and that constitute the cranial nerves and the spinal out of the skull and spine to distubuirse all organic sectors.
And precisely through this network distributes life force. Thus, in injuries that completely injured spinal cord, the region to which the nerve fibers that originate in the spinal cord region affected not only are directed undergoes a process of paralysis, but even of the irremediable atrophy.
There are also numerous shows that less serious disorders of the nerves can lead to dysfunction of organs and tissues innervated by them.
Small injuries, postural defects, incoordinados movements, etc.; they can be the origin of vertebral subluxations, cause in turn from microlosiones of the nerves at the height of the holes through which leave the spinal nerves; These microlesiones are responsible for dysfunctions and disorders of organs innervated by these nerves.
One of the characteristic aspects of chiropractic is the correction of subluxations of the vertebral and pelvic segments by default manipulative maneuvers.
The objective of this correction consists of normalizing the position of segments as regards the system joint and relieve associated disorders of neurological, muscular and vascular nature.
Vertebral subluxation is a deterioration of relations between two vertebrae of the spine, where one of these segments has lost its normal mobility with respect to the top or bottom vertebra. A spinal block or an excess of mobility can lead to irritation of the spinal nerves that emerge between two vertebrae to the height of the column. The nervous system is divided into two main parts (it should not be forgotten that these parts work together in an integrated action and with a purpose concrete), they are:
The central nervous system, of which they are part the brain and spinal cord.
Autonomic nervous system or vegetative, consisting of nodes and nerves coming from the spinal cord. This system is also known as "involuntary" insofar as it governs the functions on which we do not exercise control direct and conscious, such as the heart, stomach, and intestine.
The autonomic nervous system is divided in turn into sympathetic and parasympathetic. Both sides are morphologically differentiated among themselves and are to a large extent physiologically antagonists. The sympathetic nervous system is connected with the central nervous system through the dorsal segments and lumbar spine top. The parasympathetic nervous system is connected with the central nervous system through a series of cranial nerves and the sacral segments of the spinal cord.
Both systems, sympathetic and parasympathetic, innervate many organs; in this double innervation, the two systems are generally physiologically antagonists.
Thus, for example, when the nerves that come out between the fifth and sixth dorsal vertebrae are irritated and sent an excess of nerve signals in the direction to the stomach, there is a decrease in the production of gastric juices. Consequently, it is necessary to maintain a careful balance between the impulses of the sympathetic and parasympathetic, system in order to maintain the general physiological eqilibrio. She is thus clarified the reason why of subluxation of a vertebra can be deduced the existence of organ dysfunction, and vice versa.
Some of the indications of chiropractic are: headache, dizziness, ringing of ear, pain of the cervical, dorsal and lumbar region, the neuritis and almost all bone problems, joint and muscle; in all these cases there to assess the situation to determine the nature of the alteration and the possibility of correction through chiropractic.
After a basic test that insists on the general examination to obtain a first diagnosis, a full examination of the spine must be done from the point of view of chiropractic. It consists of an assessment of postural attitudes taken by the patient through radiographic examination and palpation of the spinal column.
It should also consider to every muscle in the body separately, in order to be able to assess better the behavior in response to requirements of different nature. Already having all this data, you can choose the type of applicable treatment.
In general, therapy consists, first and foremost, handling aimed to unblock a certain segment vertebral, and then the joints that require such treatment are unlocked.
Some history
The origin of the manipulations is unknown.
The term "chiropractic", who is also a member of compound words: operating room, quirosofia, quirologia, chiropractic, etc., is of Greek origin and means: hand.
This term is used to indicate professions or science related to the use of the hands as a tool.
In the year 1844 Mr. E. Littré publishes the collection of seventy writings dedicated to medicine, these writings were under the name of Hippocrates.
9 brief refers to fractures (compiled from Galen).
10 writing refers to the joints.
The writings of Hippocrates explained techniques of stretch, massage and vertebral column unlocking.
These chiropractors and manipulative methods were also used by the Egyptians, whose skills were exported to Greece by several priests of the time.
Several centuries later, Galen, doctor of the second century of our era, became interested in the spine, particularly the cervical area, some of his writings are refierion to specific manipulations, when the situation demanded it, so, you could say that these manoeuvres were chiropractic.
The father of what is now known as chiropractic is without a doubt Daniel Palmer (1845-1913), Palmer was not a doctor, he was engaged in the magnetization of people (ancient therapeutic method), one of the patients of Palmer is who baptizes with the name of chiropractic treatment methods.
Daniel Palmer, gave much importance to the first two cervical vertebrae, "atlas and axis", according to Palmer, the reason for this preference was because the nerves that arise from the brain down the column forms the bone marrow, and must go through the atlas and the axis prior to emerging the first spinal nerves; Therefore, minimum deviations from these two vertebrae can cause irritation on the cord.
Many concepts were transmuting with the passing of time and technological progress which led to a scientific breakthrough.
Today, chiropractic has expanded all over the world with great success and recognition, using often in combination with other methods such as osteopathy, massage and spinal manipulation.
