Structure Determines Function

Men often visit clinics due to acute low back pain resulting from strenuous work or physical activities. Interestingly, unless there is a significant injury involved, it’s unlikely for strong backs to suddenly give out. Instead, what typically occurs is a gradual tightening of the back structures over time due to accumulated stress.

This, in turn, leads to a weakening of the core back muscles, giving rise to the onset of “fragile back” syndrome. Eventually, the weakened muscles are unable to effectively support the back, resulting in a scenario where even simple tasks like picking up a hammer or lifting a child can cause the back to give in, leading to unbearable pain.

The application of specific chiropractic adjustments aims to realign and mobilise the joints stress and dysfunction, restoring proper movement and alignment. By achieving structural alignment and improved mobility, the deep core muscles are provided with a purpose, naturally regaining strength and enabling them to effectively support the back.

The Body Is Like a Car

If your car dashboard gave you a warning sign to check the engine and you got a hammer to smash the dashboard, would the engine problem be solved? No. The same applies to your body’s signs and symptoms which act as warning signs and possibly indicates vertebral subluxation. The good news is that the body CAN heal!

The Body Is Designed to Heal

Have you ever had a cut? Yes, of course you have!
Did it heal? Of course, it did!
Have you ever had a cold or a flu? Of course, you have!
Did you get better from that? Of course, you did!

That’s because the body is designed to heal! Whether its a cut, a bruise, a cold or a flu, or even a broken bone–the body is designed to heal.

Then why doesn't arthritis heal?

We’re told that arthritis is a progressive condition that deteriorates over time. The truth is, if the body can heal, arthritis doesn’t need to progress. The reason it progresses, is because something is interfering with the body’s healing potential. When we uncover what that is, and remove inteference with the healing potential of the body, the body heals!

What interferes with the healing potential of the body?

There are seven influences that interfere with the healing potential of the body–I call this the total healing blueprint.

There are Seven Pillars to The Total Healing Blueprint

An interruption to any of these pillars result in interference to health. If you have interruption to the physical pillar, you may have physical trauma, therefore, limiting your body’s ability to self-heal.

If you have poor diet, nutrition and inflammatory processes active in your body, you’re going to have interference in your physiological and biochemical pillar.

If you have high levels of stress or mental trauma in your life, you’re going to have interference to your mental and emotional pillar.

If you are indoors all of the time, under ultraviolet light, on computers or other technology, you will have interruption to the energetic pillar.

If you have a family history of arthritis or a degenerative condition, you may have an interference in the genetic pillar of your health.

If you have a life that feels uninspired, meaningless and you feel desperation and frustration in your life, then the lack of purpose and meaning in your life may be interfering with your body’s health expression as well.

Finally, if there is interruption to your spine or nervous system, and your nervous system does not express its healing potential—the nervous system pillar may be interfered with as well.

If there is interference to any or all of these seven pillars of the

Total Healing Blueprint, you may be interfering with the body’s

ability to self-heal and therefore, the healing of an arthritic or degenerative condition.

What is Vertebral Subluxation?

A vertebral subluxation is a spinal dysfunction that interferes with the mechanics of the spine and the nervous system’s ability to coordinate function within the body. Often termed as a “bone out of place,” a vertebral subluxation is in fact, not an out of place vertebrae, but a dysfunctioning vertebrae; meaning it may move more or less than it is meant to, impacting how a person moves and functions. More importantly, it interferes with the nervous system’s ability to communicate messages in and through the body, altering how we feel, function and heal.

Chiropractors are the only profession trained to analyse, detect and correct vertebral subluxation. Vertebral subluxation may be one of the most significant and common causes of lower back pain and at Provolution Health, we believe that analysing and detecting vertebral subluxation is one of the most significant corrective mechanisms for people experiencing lower back pain, back pain, neck pain or any other chronic pain condition.
