Why You Must Practice What You Preach

Groundbreaking Research

Recent research has shed light on the fascinating connection between chiropractic adjustment and brain functionality. A study published in the Journal of Neural Plasticity, led by Dr. Heidi Haavik, has shown that chiropractic adjustments can improve brain function by more than 20%, particularly in the prefrontal cortex. This area of the brain is responsible for higher learning, cognition, and sensorimotor control.

The study demonstrates that spinal function directly impacts brain function, providing scientific evidence for what many chiropractors have observed in their patients. After receiving chiropractic adjustments, people often report feeling more focused and experiencing improved thinking, attention, and behavior.

Recent research published in the Nature Journal has shown that cervical lordosis directly correlates with how well the spinal cord functions in terms of synapses. A misaligned spine can lead to slower processing of stimuli. A study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery titled "Cervical Spine Alignment, Sagittal Deformity, and Clinical Implications," states that a decrease in cervical lordosis had a direct impact on health-related quality of life.
