Check out this cool website - chiromatrix.com
Hello everyone,
Here is a link to a website that can show you how vertebral subluxations can potentially effect certain organs and body parts.

Visual learners will love this site!
Just a few things to keep in mind. First, everyone of us is 'wired' differently. So the website gives us a general idea where the nerve goes. No two people are wired the same! Yes, we all have 2 eyes, 2 ears but no two faces are exactly the same.
The second thing is that most nerves leaving the spine serve multiple organs and parts. So we really do not know which part of a nerve and which organ is affected by the subluxations. What we do know is that when misalignments (subluxations) happen, these organs and tissues will not functions the best that they can. This effects the entire body to some degree. This site does give us an idea how complex the nerve system is and how it affects the function of every part of the body.
Here are some important questions to think about: Which of these organs and parts can you (and your family members) afford to have deprived of a good nerve supply and working incorrectly as a result of nerve interference and for how long? What do you think will happen to these organs if you (and your loved ones) walk around subluxated?
If you (and your family) are interested in maximum health and getting the most out of life, you really cannot afford to have any part of your body deprived of a good nerve supply. The only way you can insure that there are no vertebral subluxations interfering with your body's ability to be all you can be is to have your spine checked regularly and adjusted as needed.

Your Health: Less or More?
When it comes to health, what are you hoping for? Less struggle? Less disease? Less risk? Less symptoms? Or . . More opportunities? More health!!? More energy? More vitality? More flexibility? etc.
I guess it all depends how you look at your life. We can take a reactive ( or less ) approach to life and health. In this scenario you are always putting out fires. You are kind of going with the flow. But who's flow? You are always worried about catching the next disease or how to cure it. It can be a scary way to live because you have no control. It's fear based and it can cause one to just run in place for years. You are basically running away from disease and trying to figure out how to get rid of your new ailment.
There is nothing wrong with addressing how you feel on a day to day basis. But, to be really healthy and bounce back quick to the stresses of daily life takes a subtle shift of your focus.
We can easily shift our focus from 'running away', to 'moving toward'. 'Moving toward' is a proactive (more) approach to life and health. You may think its prevention but its not. Its the mind-set of 'what can I do today to build health' in my body and life. For example; instead of exercising regularly to prevent bad health, you exercise to build health and power! Instead of eating well to prevent cancer, you eat well to build health and power. The basic fact is - disease cannot exist in a healthy body!
This pertains to what I do for a living also. Most people go to the chiropractor because they have an ache or a pain they want to get rid of. In other words, they want less of something. There is nothing wrong with that because we all want to feel better. However, what most people don't know, is that chiropractic adjustments will add more power to your nerve system. Another fact that most people don't know is that 90 percent of your nerves are for function, no pain. For example, your stomach, , your pancreas , liver, kidneys are performing hundreds of functions without your conscious control.
Everything we do affects our spine so some degree. Chiropractic adjustments keep the spine working properly which keeps your nerve system working better. This allows us to have more energy. more vitality and more health.
