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...

Call Us Today On 0477 226 878 Schedule A Complimentary Consultation Where A Consultation Is A Conversation - NOT A Commitment ABOUT Meet the Staff SERVICES Structural Corrective Care Structural Paediatric and Pregnancy Care Structural Animal Care BLOG Health Reports CONTACT   Structural Shifts, Asthma and Autoimmune Conditions! Last week we focused on symptoms and the healing process. I believe that once people can begin to grasp the role of symptoms in health and healing—that they then have begun the “paradigm shift” towards a true understanding of how the body works. There  can  be  confusion between symptoms and conditions. A symptom is a part of or a result of the inherent healing process of the body—it indicates that the healing process  is  underway-but  a condition is when the body is NOT functioning  correctly  and  the healing  process  has  been somehow altered or cannot be completed. Example: Sneezing is the body’s way of purging toxins from the body—it’s part of the healing process—a good thing, a beneficial thing and to chemically inhibit the symptom would only prolong the problem. Congestion—would be an example of a condition—where the body is NOT functioning as it is supposed to. So to resolve the condition, the objective outcome needs to be aimed at improving or restoring FUNCTION and in the case of Chiropractic; this is done with the restoration of normal nerve flow via the detection and correction of Structure that has shifted away from NORMAL . At Align Chiropractic we do not focus on your symptoms rather understand that Secondary Conditions must have a PRIMARY CAUSE. In our office we focus on structural Correction....

Welcome, this week we take a look at the Immune system.  What you need to know is that a healthy Immune System is about elevating one’s natural resistance to germs and disease rather than avoiding them and eliminating symptoms. There has been a definite shift by the general public towards this ‘Chiropractic’ type of understanding during our lifetime. Now days if you go to any bookstore you can find the health section lined with books about how to BOOST your immune system and many of them are very good with great information. That being said there is far less information on just how the immune system is driven directly or indirectly by proper nerve supply.     If you were to Google the words “Immune system boost”,  you will find in excess of 16,500,000 hits, so clearly this is a topic that is important to the public. Parents may feel that the health of their children is not great, and they also suspect that long held traditional views of health may not tell the full story.  More and more, this topic is being talked about openly in public, in books and magazines.         Dr. Robert Ader, a psychologist at the University of Rochester School Of Medicine, performed key experiments to prove the brain-nervous system- immune system connection. I will summarise...

Call Us Today On 0477 226 878 Schedule A Complimentary Consultation Where A Consultation Is A Conversation - NOT A Commitment ABOUT Meet the Staff SERVICES Structural Corrective Care Structural Paediatric and Pregnancy Care Structural Animal Care BLOG Health Reports CONTACT     Blog post 4! The Birth Process and Structural Shifts Through out human history it has been common for  the birth process to occur and babies to have been born early in the morning. This may be because it is a time when  the mother is well rested and relaxed  which  in turn facilitated  as  easy of  a birth as  possible.  During the last century the modern birthing process has become the norm, where the date and time of the birth is scheduled-often for the convenience of the delivery team. This  intervention may lead to increased force and stress during the delivery.       A tremendous amount of stress is placed on the neck  by the modern birthing process. There is a NORMAL way for the head to present during delivery.  If the baby’s head presents in any other way than with the face down (Normal),  there can be added stress to the structures of the spine.  Any intervention such as vacuum or forceps may cause additional  trauma  to  the  head  and  neck. Cesarean  section  is  also  considered a traumatic birth when considering the effects on the spine. Sometimes the ability and the capacity of the pelvis is insufficient to allow the child to navigate easily through the birth canal. This  may occur due to a small pelvis, an abnormal pelvic formation, or due to the size of...

Just 15 days after conception the original stem cells start to separate into the different tissues they will become. This is first seen in something called the primitive streak. We are interested mainly in the ectoderm as it turns into the master controlling system of the body, your nervous system. Neurons grow at the amazing rate of 250,000 per minute in a child developing in the womb.   The next post will talk about the birthing process and how Structural Shifts may occur during this time.   This streak marks the beginning of gastrulation. Simply put, all the original stem cells now separate into 3 distinct levels in an embryonic disc. The layers are the ectoderm, mesoderm and the endoderm. The ectoderm turns into the nervous system and skin. The mesoderm turns into muscle and bone, while the endoderm turns into your internal organs. The ectoderm becomes the brain, the spinal cord (both encased in what will be...
