Body natural healing potential

On some level everyone of us knows that there is an intelligence in our body that knows how to maintain function, heal cuts, get us better from virus and bacteria.  In the natural healing world we call this “innate intelligence”. The existence of this natural healing power inside each of us is obvious for anyone who chooses to look.

When we are cut our body immediately mobilizes white blood cells to wall off the capillaries that are severed to stop bleeding. Then once walled off blood cells coagulate to further stop the bleeding. Next the body over time forms a scab over the injured tissue and each day beneath the scab the damaged tissue mends heals and repairs. After enough time and tissue repair the scab falls off and the repaired tissue is exposed usually having a pink coloration. AS time goes by the body heals as completely as possible and you are left with a scar. This process is not under your bodies conscious control but rather is an automatic healing response that the body goes through when injured. The question is who or what does the healing?

Your body has an immune system that in most cases can handle most of what it encounters in the natural world. When you are exposed to an outside invader such as a virus or bacteria your immune system is activated to engulf or eat the invaders with white blood cells. If the invader has not been recognized before then the virus or bacteria evades the immune system for a time until an all out immune response is launched by the body. This is when someone feels “sick”.  The feeling of being “sick” is due to the bodies natural healing response in which the immune system goes on red alert.  Increased fever is one symptom that is the result of the body increasing blood flow to more rapidly deploy white blood cells that can destroy the offending virus or bacteria.  Other symptoms such as chills, sweating,and nausea are due to the bodies all out attack on the invader.  In most cases the bodies own natural healing system is equipped to take care of itself and over a course the body is able to eliminate the bacteria or virus that makes you “sick”.  Whether it is the flu, and ear infection, or pneumonia, the body will always do its best to heal and repair and bring back balance and health.

In the case of chronic health conditions, this results from the bodies inability to adapt to its environment dues to interference’s to normal function.  Interference’s may be due to poor diet, excess stress, lack of sleep, or irritations to the central nervous system due to structural imbalance. When the body is compromised and it is unable to adapt chronic health problems follow. The goal of any natural health provider is to remove impediments to healing by removing what has caused the body lose health.

Our doctors are located in two Los Angeles offices who have dedicated their professional careers to helping people that suffer with chronic health problems. Over the past 17 years we have helped people recover their health from a plethora of chronic health problems buy correcting structural problems in the neck that allow the body to function better and heal itself.

The head neck junction, known as the cranio-cervical junction CCJ, is the most susceptible area of the spine to spinal misalignment.  The head weighs 10-13 pounds and the top vertebrae int eh neck weighs 2 ounces.  Duse to this precarious relationship this region of the body can be damaged from a host of blunt type of injuries such as car accidents, sports injuries, slip and fall accidents and more.

Once the atlas and skull misaligned the central nervous system becomes irritated and in many cases this sets the stage for chronic health problems.  The brain stem located inside of the first and second cervical vertebrae is responsible for controlling most of the function in the body that we do not consciously think about.

As a result injury in this area can have far reaching deleterious effects on the body.  As we talked about earlier natural healing happens by removing impediments that interfere with normal body function. Blair upper cervical chiropractors are well trained in determining whether or not you have suffered a prior neck injury that is contributing to your health problems.

If determined you have had prior neck injury precision 3-d cone beam computerized tomography cbct scans are taken to determine the exact direction and magnitude of your spinal misalignment.  Once determined the cbct information is then used to preform a precise spinal correction which includes no twisting popping or pulling.
