When it comes to chiropractic care, youve probably heard the phrase, The spine is the key to the nervous system. How do you measure whether the spine is causing stress, tension, or dysfunction in the nervous system? But what does that really mean, and how do you track its health? Neurological scanning technology is the answer.

As chiropractors, weve long focused on vertebral subluxationsthose misalignments in the spine that cause dysfunction. What if the spines misalignments arent the problem but the bodys attempt to adapt to stress and maintain function? It means adjustments arent just about fixing the spine. This approach shifts the narrative.

In traditional chiropractic, we view subluxations as misalignments in the spine that lead to functional issues. Instead of focusing on restoring the spine to its “ideal” structure, what if we prioritized optimizing function? This understanding is grounded in the belief that structure dictates function.
