The Unappreciated Cervical Spine: Chiropractic & the Balance Factor

If we consider the mechanical aspects of the neck, it will only excite the nerdy chiropractors ( I am "nerdy chiropractor" up to a point). From an anatomical and physiological view point, the neck is a very busy part of the body. Not only does it support the brain, thyroid, and let you eat your dinner, the neck is a very important transport point for nerves that control the autonomic nervous system. These are the information super high-ways that keep your vital functions going.

In a more holistic perspective it connects the head and the heart and you truly need to be in touch with both to live well. Historically there has been the argument: which is more powerful -- living through your head or your heart? Your head allows you to think through possible consequences of your choices. Your heart gives you emotional feedback, as well. We use them both at different times for different reasons, for different outcomes.

But never forget...the neck that is in the middle.
The cervical spine is the life line.

Staying balanced is key. That includes your head and your heart. And, all the physical and non-physical aspects of the nervous system.

See you at the table...the adjusting table.
