Have you ever heard of a subluxation? A subluxation is specifically defined as 'a misaligned spinal vertebra that interferes with one or more of the spinal nerves in our bodies.' This is what causes sickness and disease. For this reason subluxations have been called the silent killer.
Stress, trauma, poor nutrition, lack of exercise and toxins cause damage to our body, and in response to these things, the spine creates a subluxation. We have covered low back pain and how to control it, but at this point we need to understand that the subluxation is the one thing that is actually causing the lower back pain once the rigors of life start to cumulate.
We need chiropractic care to help our body eliminate the subluxation, and get all the low back pain out of our body (and to get well completely) if we want our health back. The reason subluxations are called a silent killer is because most people are sick and dying of one or more diseases at a time.
They are losing the battle against combinations of heart disease, cancer, arthritis, tumors, and the list of diseases goes on and on. Realize, right here and now, that these diseases are controllable and preventable. And they are not what is killing us. The thing that is making us sick and killing you is the same thing that is causing our low back pain!
The culprit is known as a subluxation and it doesn't allow for healing. This leads to the subsequent death of many body tissues and eventually our own demise! No need to panic. We can eliminate this. Remember how I said drugs only mask the pain, and removing the cause is what helps our body to handle stress, trauma, and toxins better? Removing the subluxation IS removing the cause and therefore eliminates disease and sickness as well.
Even though I have explained that if the low back, or any other part of your spine hurts, it means there are underlying factors causing the pain that lead to further weakened health, to fully understand how a subluxation causes disease, we must first understand how the body develops and functions.
All people come from two cells, the sperm cell and the egg cell. The moment these two meet in the womb they start forming more cells over and over until a new life emerges. This new life is a new person made up of two parts - a physical body and a spiritual intelligence, which is inside of it telling it how to develop and function.
We take it for granted but every day we have this intelligence (programming) inside our bodies. The physical body is made up of all the various parts that we are familiar with, however, this intelligence we have in us is housed inside the nervous system. Some say it is our soul.
Consequently, when a new human being starts to form in the womb, the nervous system starts forming first. In fact the first thing to develop in the body is the brain, then comes the spinal cord, and finally, the spinal nerves grow in place.
To look at it, the brain has a long tail called the spinal cord attached to it, which has spinal nerves coming out in pairs from the left and right starting at the top and continuing down to the bottom. The reason the nervous system forms first is, as we already mentioned, so the intelligence which resides there can send information down the spinal cord on how to form all other parts of the body.
The intelligence tells the new human being where to put the nose, the toes, the arms, the legs, the organs and everything else, normally, exactly where it belongs. Now, as we already know this new human being (or baby) develops and grows to a certain size and is then born. The intelligence in the new baby, as well as in the mother, knows when and how to do this without a flinch. It is almost automatic.
This intelligence we have is responsible for everything the body does and encounters for our entire existence. So, when the new baby is born and he or she comes into the world, an array of new sensations and challenges arise. The intelligence now has the job telling this new body how to grow and how to adapt to the environment.
From this point it is imperative to remember that this intelligence continues to flow through the nervous system to all of the body and its parts to tell them how to function forever. The intelligence does this by not just communicating to the body part itself, but to the individual cells that the body part is made up of.
This must remain constant as the human body is made up of trillions of cells and each cell or group of cells has a specialized job or something fails. Communication must also always be complete. For example, liver cells have a cleaning function, skin cells have a protective function, muscles have a movement function, etc.
So we need to understand that the intelligence to do all this comes from the brain, through the spinal cord, and out the spinal nerves to the cells. And it must never stop nor send the wrong message. Each one of these trillions of cells in each organ is like a little specialized factory doing it's own little job. In fact, this is how the human body functions to help sustain life. The intelligence coming from our brains is the boss of all these little factories and has to tell them what to do and how to do it at all times.
Kind of like a factory foreman. If there is some sort of loss of that communication the cells will not function and could become sick and die. This is where fixing a subluxation comes in to play. Just as a side note to explaining how subluxations affect our body, we need to remember the three forces outside our body that act on it in such a way as to cause it to create a subluxation.
These three forces were stress, trauma, and toxins. These three forces cause our body's muscles and ligaments to weaken, particularly the ones that hold the spinal vertebrae in place. All three acts on the body in different ways to do this, however, we need to understand that they do absolutely cause the muscles and ligaments to weaken and consequently the vertebrae always misaligns into a subluxation and interferes with the spinal nerves.
If the intelligence in the brain is constantly sending communication down the spinal cord and out the nerves, and then a subluxation blocks that communication at whatever spinal nerve level that the subluxation is interfering with, therein lies the problem. Something somewhere isn't getting the order right. Ever ordered a sandwich in a drive thru and the guy inside got the order wrong or you couldn't understand him?
That's what happens inside of you too. Magnets have been used to channel this intelligence because it is actually an electrical current but this does correct the cause. (Think of the emergency team shocking a person who had a heart attack. This intelligence is electrical.) When a subluxation makes it so hard for the nerve to relay it's message from the brain to the cells and in turn for the cells function properly, the cells become sick and start to die, but they don't all start to die right away.
Most of these cells affected by the subluxation live. During that time however they do certain things that they are not supposed to do and one of these things is stopping to reproduce themselves. So what we have are sick cells reproducing themselves and sick cells can only produce more abnormal and dis-eased cells.
This means they produce abnormal cells and grow into a larger group of abnormal cells. This is what we then call CANCER. Body cells replace themselves at a rate of two and one half millions cells per minute normally. This has to be allowed to occur so our physical bodies can keep renewing themselves.
This happens by the cell itself splitting in two and creating a new cell. To see how this works we can look at each different body part and see that different types of cells from these different body parts replace themselves with there own tissue and at their own pace in the body.
For example the liver replaces itself with new cells every seven months, the heart is completely renewed in five years, and one last example would be that the stomach lining replaces itself every four minutes. This replacement of cells is vital to our existence as we are renewed at all times. If the body has a subluxation impinging on a nerve shutting off intelligence to a group of cells then our body gets sick because the body has started producing abnormal cells instead of normal ones.
Let's explain what a group of sick cells does to us. When we get a subluxation the affect upon the cells starts right away and our bodies are in trouble immediately, even though for a long time we don't have any symptoms. Yes, once in awhile we will have a symptom right away, but this is the exception rather the rule.
What we are saying is that the subluxation usually occurs subtly over time, to where we have a misplaced vertebrae impinging on a nerve. From there we get a group of larger and multiplying group of sick cells. This group of sick cells eventually becomes large enough that the message from the brain is blocked off so much the area of the subluxation overloads and you feel the symptom, such as pain, numbness, tingling, or any variety of things.
But this may take five years or more to manifest, so we may normally show no clinical signs of a problem from the subluxation until it has been present in our body for a number of years and caused it's damage. This is the case with most diseases, meaning the cause of the disease, the subluxation, had been there long before the symptoms manifested.
A group of abnormal cells is exactly what all diseases are made of. Man, in his infinite wisdom has given all these different types of diseases different names, according to their location in the body. But we need to remember that these diseases are all just groups of abnormal cells and they are all caused by one thing, that being the subluxation.
The subluxation comes first, the group of abnormal cells second, disease process third and the symptoms finally, fourth. Fixing the problem or dying all too painfully soon becomes the decision.
