KINGAROY, Australia - AussieJournal -- I see patients of every age at infancy, the youngest being less than 24 hours old on its way home from the hospital through young kids to teens and so on, I can see patterns that I am correcting in infants in the older patients I see, wishing I had the opportunity to see them younger. I think that if an individual looks after themselves from a younger age, they will age with more grace and not be in so much discomfort in their latter years. This theory disregards random injuries of course, illnesses and other hereditary factors. Let's get on with the focus of this discussion, the spine.

The spine is a bony housing for delicate, yet resilient nerve tissues. The spinal cord coming from the base of the brain gives rise to the peripheral nerves that create the communication highway from the body to the brain and brain back to the body.

The spine also creates a vital structural link from the legs and pelvis to the rib cage and arms and head, to hold it way up there as we walk around, with the aid of our muscles.

The structure of the spine governs its function both in protecting the nerve structures and in creating optimal efficient posture and movement. There is a complex relationship between nerve function from the level of the brain to our motor system and joint and muscle activation and back the other way, chicken and egg style.

Chiropractic accesses this system by adding a force to the spinal joints that both assists them to move better (often immediately) and stimulates the nerves back to brain to create healthier pathways of function and reduce pain pathway activation. Repeated activations and mobilisation create healthier nerve function that controls posture, and better movement ongoing. Coupled with activity, this can help the body function with greater vitality and health and keep movements smoother and pain free longer.
