How Is Your Nerve Supply?

There are 24 moveable bones of the spine. Collectively they are called the spinal column. Between each of these bones is where nerves exit to give electrical energy or life force to the rest of the body ( heart, lungs, muscles, glands, etc.). The brain communicates through these nerves to the rest of the body.

Research at the University of Colorado in Boulder discovered that the pressure on spinal nerve roots of as little as 45mm of mercury (about the weight of a quarter) decreased nerve transmission by 60% in just a matter of minutes.

What would happen if your heart, lungs, muscles, kidneys, liver, glands, etc. only received 60% of the nerve transmission? Make sure the entire family is getting regular chiropractic care as part of there lifestyle.
