If You Fall (Like Dr. Ed), Imaging Could Make All The Difference

Dr. Ed slipped on some ice while walking to his car. One of his first thoughts was "I need to get my Atlas checked right in the morning." The next morning Dr. Brayana checked him and discovered he needed new imaging because after his fall there were changes with his case. After analyzing the imaging, for the first time in 12 years, Dr. Ed's atlas was shifted to the left, instead of his previously right atlas. This change was putting additional pressure on his nervous system, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain blood flow. An adjustment with his hold right atlas listing would not have gotten any pressure off of his nervous system. 

A new injury needs a new approach. Without the updated 3D imaging, we would have never known! Dr. Ed is already healing up and doing well. 

This example shows that oftentimes a physical injury like a slip, fall, or car accident requires a physical solution. A gentle and precise Chiropractic adjustment can help relieve Nervous System pressure, so the body can express life fully. Ibuprofen or Tylenol may have reduced superficial symptoms of headaches, migraines, pain, or brain fog, but those chemicals would not touch the root cause of the problem within the upper cervical spine. In the same respect, if an accident causes frame damage to your car, it’ll have to go to a collision repair center to get addressed physically. Paint alone won’t solve the issue. 

Think of how many times you have hit your head or fallen in your life, even as a child. Each time you get a bump on your head your cervical spine could also have suffered an injury. This is why 3D imaging and Upper Cervical Chiropractic are so important and can change the trajectory of your life.
