In 2018, nearly seven million men and women in the usa sought help through assisted fertility treatment, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). The price of this treatment averages $17,000usd with an average success rate of less than thirty-three percent. Both women and men can have problems that cause infertility. About one-third of infertility cases are caused by women’s problems. Another one-third of fertility problems are due to the man. The other cases are caused by a mixture of male and female problems or by unknown problems. The science of chiropractic is founded on the premise that a properly functioning nervous system is the foundation of health and that the structural integrity of the spinal column must be maintained in order to facilitate optimal nervous system transmission and communication in the human body. There are many reasons that spinal adjustments can contribute to the resolution of many cases of infertility. First of all, the uterus...

On the subject of Upper Cervical care and TMJ (jaw) disorders, check out the linked study titled Selected ENT symptoms in functional disorders of the upper cervical spine and temporomandibular joints. M. Hölzl et al Published online: 11 February 2019 They start out stating: Definition of the upper cervical spine The cervical spine is not a unitary system, but is divided into the craniovertebral joints (occiput to C3) and the lower cervical spine (C3 to C7). The difference is manifested in the morphology and joint mechanics as well as in the muscle dynamics and neurophysiology. The segments of the craniovertebral joints comprise the atlanto-occipital joint (Oc-C1) and the atlantoaxial joint(C1/C2). In addition, C2/C3 must be accounted for as an additional part of the system in neuroanatomical, functional, and clinical terms, because the cervico-trigeminal neuroanatomy, converges toward the spinal trigeminal nucleus from the cervical spinal roots of C1–C3. The craniovertebral joint region is a sensory organ for the perception of body position and movement and they continue A “blockade” is a reversible dysfunction of the craniovertebral or temporomandibular joints. Please read this study as they discuss the relationship of the craniocervical region with tinnitus, dysphagia, cervicogenic vertigo, and various cervical disturbances traced to the upper neck. Looking at the illustration from this article, keep in mind the statement of Dr.Amy  Pruszenski , “If there is no eye pathology (glaucoma, torn retina,…) consider the...

Issue1;  Iliopsoas Muscle Injury in Dogs iliopsoas muscle is formed by the psoas major and iliacus muscles, which mainly arise from the lumbar vertebrae and ilium. They fuse to insert on the lesser trochanter of the femur. This muscle functions as a hip flexor. So if your dog has a problem with hip flexion it is easy to diagnose if it is due to strain of the illiopsoas . It can be unilateral or bilateral depending on the underlying reason for injury. Direct palpation of the tendinous insertion point of the iliopsoas typically will result in marked discomfort and will confirm this diagnosis. Hip extension and concurrent internal rotation can also cause discomfort, as it increases the pressure on the musculature. Often, the asymmetry of response in a unilaterally affected case is impressive, as dogs with a normal iliopsoas muscle won’t respond to compression at the lesser trochanter. Early detection and institution of early treatment will generally result in resolution of an acute injury. These injuries need at least 4-6 weeks of strict rest to prevent repeated trauma. This is absolutely critical to success, and failure of resolution of an acute athletic injury is often the result of poor owner compliance. Physical therapy with stretching and massage can also be pursued during this period of strict rest. Following this period of strict rest, low...

There is one missing piece of the puzzle that almost every doctor on the planet leaves out when evaluating their patients. There is a major reason why people can see doctors for years and still remain sick, diseased, and loaded to the gills with medications. There is one answer to all of mankind’s suffering that is continually overlooked by all conventional, medical approaches. Drugs and surgery will never be the answer to you achieving optimal health and well-being. Medicine never finds the cause, it just suppresses the symptom. Wouldn’t you want to find out what the MISSING LINK is?     “Loss of cervical (neck) curve/ THE ARC OF LIFE stretches the spinal cord 5 to 7 cm and produces pathological tension, putting the body in a state of disease.”  - Alfred Breig, MD The loss of cervical lordosis reduces the patients lung capacity by up to 30% (Davis, 1996; Korr, 1975; Bernini, Wiesel and Rothman,1982) Decreased blood flow from abnormal posture is a major factor in ALL DISEASE, including cancer.
