Ground breaking research explains what Chiropractic patients have been feeling for decades: Improve your posture and correct abnormal spinal curves to improve brain-body, body-brain communication!
What does your Brain control? Everything! How does it do this? First your brain should be receiving 1000’s of incoming messages every second from your cells, tissues, glands and organs. These incoming or afferent nerve signals travel from the body, into the spinal cord and up into the brain where they are interpreted by the brain. The brain then sends outgoing or efferent nerve signals through the spinal cord out to your body’s cells, tissues, glands and organs regulating everything from digestion and hormone secretion to immune system responses!
When you lose your normal neck curve or if you have forward head posture (TEXT NECK), you can literally be slowing the speed at which your brain receives and sends messages! Correct your posture and restore your neck curve and you INCREASE the speed at which your brain can function!
How well and how quickly you can adapt to an ever-changing environment is the Key to optimal health! Athletes, this is HUGE! All of the major bio-motor skills associated with athletic performance (speed, power, endurance, flexibility, agility, balance and coordination) require uninterrupted brain function. The quicker an athlete can perceive what they need to do and the faster they can react can result in improvements in every single one of these bio-motor skills needed in athletics!
At Back to Health Chiropractic, we utilize the Chiropractic BioPhysic® Methods, the world’s most research-based technique, to correct posture and restore spinal curvatures. This cannot be done with adjustments alone. Specific mirror images exercise, mirror image adjustments and mirror image traction must be combined to restore both spinal curves and optimal postures. 207-324-7098.

A randomized controlled study was conducted to evaluate the effect of rehabilitation of the cervical sagittal configuration on sensorimotor integration and central conduction time in an asymptomatic population. Eighty (32 female) participants with radiographic cervical hypolordosis and anterior head...
