Reduction in Arterial Blood Pressure Following Chiropractic Adjustment

ORIGINAL RESEARCH

Reduction in Arterial Blood Pressure Following Adjustment of Atlas to Correct Vertebral Subluxation: A Prospective Longitudinal Cohort Study 
Scott Torns, DC Bio

Journal of Upper Cervical Chiropractic Research ~ August 11, 2014 ~ Pages 54-60

Abstract


Objective:  This investigation was a placebo-control, randomized, prospective longitudinal cohort study to examine the long term effect Atlas Orthogonal (AO) upper cervical chiropractic care has on arterial blood pressure (ABP).

Methods: Twenty participants were computer randomized into a placebo-control group and a therapeutic group. All participants were examined radiographically, and coordinate values were calculated for Atlas dysfunction per AO Technique. The therapeutic group received an AO adjustment while controls received a sham adjustment. Pre and post therapeutic intervention ABP values were recorded for each participant. Subsequent measures for ABP were again recorded at one week, two weeks, four weeks, and lastly, six weeks after intervention. The Atlas was adjusted utilizing an AO Adjusting Instrument. No adverse reactions were recorded in either group.

Results: The therapeutic group demonstrated significant lowering of both their systolic and diastolic values. Improvements in systolic values continued to be statistically significant at six weeks. The effect on the diastolic values failed to reach significance after four weeks. There were no statistically significant differences detected in the systolic or diastolic values of the control group.

Conclusions: This investigation provides further evidence connecting upper cervical chiropractic care and ABP regulation. While the exact mechanism remains in question, data suggests an appropriate dose may be one upper cervical chiropractic visit per month for patients that suffer from high ABP.

Network Spinal Analysis™ care is an evidence based approach to wellness and body awareness. Gentle precise touch to the spine cues the brain to create new wellness promoting strategies. Two unique healing waves develop that are associated with spontaneous release of spinal and life tensions, and the use of existing tension as fuel for spinal re-organization and enhanced wellness. Practitioners combine their clinical assessments of spinal refinements with patient’s self assessments of wellness and life changes. Greater self-awareness and conscious awakening of the relationships between the body, mind, emotion, and expression of the human spirit are realized through this popular healing work.

People’s feelings affect their health...

People’s feelings affect their health



 For example research shows that a person’s spinal pain and disability are better predicted by levels of financial stress and job satisfaction than by an X-ray or CT scan.

Often symptoms of angina, asthma or many conditions are more a reflection of the individual’s internal state than abnormality in the blood test, the X-ray, or the physical examination. In one interesting study patients receiving high blood pressure medication were shown to have a poorer quality of life than those without meds. In another study, hypertensive stock brokers were given standard “high blood pressure” medication while another group of brokers were given a pet. Those with the pets enjoyed life more and had at least as significant a lowering of blood pressure as those taking medication. Illness is the lack of wellness. 

Wellness is that state in which you are relatively invincible, nothing can ruin your day, you feel alive, vital and confident, and experience a high state of well-being. When you experience wellness, your circumstances of the moment do not easily upset your internal state. 

In contrast, illness is the state of concern about your mortality, about your health. It is a state in which you feel limited, challenged, and worried. You feel as if something is “wrong”.

Therefore a person can have advanced cardiovascular disease and not feel ill. The same is true with cancer or any other disease. Although linked in many ways, a disease does not determine if a person is ill, and treatment of disease will only rarely produce wellness. Often the more a disease (not the person) is treated, the less wellness a person is likely to experience.

Concerns about mortality, limitation, or just the feeling that something is wrong are not usually caused by disease, but instead by lack of wellness. You currently are experiencing illness, and also were diagnosed with cancer. Often when one feels ill, one looks for a disease to match the experience of being ill. Although treatment of disease may at times save lives, it rarely results in wellness behavior and well-being. However, a greater sense of well being, the ability to make healthier choices, and better adapt to stress all impact on the disease state. Most disease is attributable to lifestyle, environmental factors, or habits that take their toll over a period of years. Wouldn’t it make sense that if the destructive patterns were changed, health would begin to be restored? Treatment of disease does not have to preclude getting well.

ONE Direction



ONE Direction- Ha this isn't a news letter about a boy band.
It is about your life!
Which direction are you moving in?
In the office one of the ways that I approach your care is through the magic lens of THE FOUR SACRED SEASONS  Discover, Transform, Awaken and Integrate.
Today I want to stimulate your mindbody with a nugget about Discover and Transform.  One hallmark of these two Seasons is the direction that they move in.  When you are in the season of discover you look to the past to reference. For example, you come to the office with an achy, tight right shoulder. After you get entrained you move your shoulder around and comment "Grrrrrreat!!! WHOO HOOO!! all last year I couldn't move my shoulder at all and now it is moving".  Do you see the direction?  When you are in the sacred season of discover your reference point, to see where you are today, is the past. This is a necessary place to be to gather data.  However, once you have enough reference points from past suffering, once you become conscious of these suffering patterns, they become unbearable and you are ready to TAKE ACTION! This is what level one of care is designed to do, gather all this data for you.
When you are in transform the direction is FORWARD.  Your new reference point is your compelling future.  You decide that you want to be healthy and wealthy.  You begin to take action towards these goals.  How does the version of me that is healthy and wealthy behave?  She/He begins to workout each morning and enrolls in a wealth management course.  Action steps toward her/his goals!

If you are saying you want to become healthy and wealthy, but you are also saying that you are out of shape and suck with money; Then you now know that there is a disconnect and something is misaligned.  You can now have a framework for this common situation.  You are in the season of discover! Celebrate


that you are now aware of that. You have discovered something about yourself. Keep getting to know yourself, keep discovering and you will gather the fuel for Transform. That is what the entrainments in this office help you to do. Find and harness the fuel you need to create the life you deserve.
Discover is moving backwards and looking to the past.
Transform is moving forward and creating a compelling future

Which direction is your life going in?

I am excited to support you, love you and nourish you through all the seasons.  I will see you on the tables.

Be Well
Dr Suzanne

Breastfeeding Difficulties and Chiropractic



Breastfeeding Difficulties and Chiropractic


Modern birthing procedures, even those with seemingly minimal intervention, are known to cause
trauma and stress to the infant’s cranium and spine. In a leading pediatric textbook on manual therapy
for children, one author tells us, “When considering injuries and dysfunctions of the spine and its
associated structures, the significance of birth trauma is often underestimated, and the resulting
symptoms frequently misinterpreted.”



In the case of breastfeeding difficulty, as with many childhood disorders, the cause of the problem often 
traces back to undetected bio-mechanical injuries to the spine and cranium at birth. The failure to 
recognize these bio-mechanical injuries and their relationship to difficulty in breastfeeding leads to 
incorrect conclusions and therefore, inadequate recommendations and treatments. Without real 
solutions, mothers become discouraged, successful breastfeeding is not achieved, and women stop 
trying out of frustration. 


Breastfeeding is by far the best choice for infant feeding for numerous reasons. Significant research 
shows that, from a nutritional, immunological, digestive, neurological, developmental, mental, 
psychological, and emotional standpoint, there is no replacement. Today, more and more women are 
choosing the healthy, natural benefits of breastfeeding. Exclusive breastfeeding is the 
optimal feeding mode for an infant’s first 6 months of life. Many women initially plan to breastfeed for



that length of time, yet fall short because of difficulties that seem to have no solution. Many of 
the care-providers they consult are unaware of the bio-mechanical disorders in the infant’s spines and 
craniums that cause the difficulty in breastfeeding. This lack of knowledge leads to ineffective 
recommendations with unsatisfactory results. In these instances, it is imperative that parents seek 
family chiropractors who offer mothers and infants the care appropriate to their needs.


In 24 years of practice, it has been my experience that when infants presented in our office with any of 
the indicated difficulties (see below), once evaluated and adjusted accordingly, they 
responded favorably with chiropractic care. Normal function in the infant was restored and 
breastfeeding continued without further complications and hindrances. Among other 
numerous benefits of chiropractic care for infants, the ability to successfully breastfeed has lifelong 
consequences for the baby’s future health potential. Including chiropractic care for your newborn may 
very well be one of the most important choices you make in support of the family wellness lifestyle. 


Some of the most common indicators of difficulty with breastfeeding are: 
 Babies who cannot latch firmly 
 Babies who can latch and not sustain sucking 
 Babies who are unable to smoothly coordinate 
suckling, swallowing, and breathing 
 Babies who can feed in only one position 
 Babies who seem dissatisfied when nursing or 
who remain fussy and distressed throughout 
the day 
 Babies who chew and damage the mother’s 
nipples 
 Babies who may not feed any better from other 
devices 
 Babies who have the need to suck 24/7
