post # 14 - INTRODUCTION TO THE BIOMECHANICS OF A SUBLUXATION.

This might have big fancy wording - but the photos allow it to all make sense.

I’m posting a few pictures of wooden beads which represent the functioning of the spine in regard to movement.

Photo top left — both white and red beads represent individual vertebrae. During the process of normal, everyday activities, spinal vertebrae need to perform as a unit and not only be able to freely and smoothly bend forward and backward; they must also allow side-to-side flexion/extension plus rotation.

Photo top right - The white beads represent those vertebrae that move freely. They are able to do their job because they are healthy and in a normal position. that also means they leave space for the nerve roots to exit from the spinal column, and for nerve flow to continue without hindrance or blockage. THIS IS WHAT WE ALL NEED.

Photo bottom left - In our model, the red beads are an example of a subluxation - they are locked out of normal positioning and are unable to perform necessary movement. In fact, because they can’t move as needed, they then force other vertebrae to perform movements they are not designed to do. This may not only be painful, but it can also cause deterioration of the bony structure of vertebrae itself and most likely damage to the disc.

Photo bottom right - In the last photo we see the subluxations have been corrected and the spine is now able to bend and move as needed and normal function is restored.

REALLY - it's that simple.
