chiropractic spine What is a Subluxation?

A subluxation occurs when spinal vertebrae move out of their proper position or function, affecting the communication between your brain and body through the nervous system.

  • Sub means “less than”
  • Luxation means “dislocation”

Even minor misalignments can disrupt your body’s natural function and impact overall health.

How Subluxation Affects Your Body

Subluxations are a stress response in your body. When vertebrae are misaligned:

  • Muscles may go into spasm
  • Spinal joints can lock
  • Nearby nerves become compressed or irritated

This interference can garble nerve signals, disrupting the control and regulation of your organs, tissues, and systems. Over time, these distortions can contribute to headaches, back pain, digestive issues, and other health problems.

The Importance of Nervous System Communication

Your nervous system controls every part of your body, sending signals through your spine. Maintaining a spine free of vertebral subluxations is essential for optimal health and well-being.

Detection and Correction

Only a chiropractic examination can identify subluxations. Through precise chiropractic adjustments, these misalignments can be corrected, naturally restoring proper nervous system function.

Early Intervention Matters

Detecting subluxations early is crucial. When caught early, they are easier to correct, preventing more serious issues down the line. Prioritise your spinal health today at Chiropractic Ringwood.
