Flexibility & Stability

by DocBill

Your spine has two opposing tasks it must  accomplish  flexibility and stability.

Flexibility  means  the spine is capable of bending, stretching, and moving with ease and fluidity.

Stability is defined as resistance to change, deterioration, or displacement.  Stability is being strong enough to perform the tasks required in your life and strong enough to maintain posture and alignment of your spine when standing or lifting heavy objects.

Loss of flexibility and stability will lead to serious health problems.

Subluxation is the term applied to areas of the spine that have lost their flexibility.  Subluxations cause arthritis and interfere with your nerve system.   Lost flexibility can lead to pain, swelling and disability.

Chiropractic treatment is specific to restoring flexibility.  Chiropractic adjustments, motorized inter-segmental traction (roller tables) and seated spine range of motion exercises (Warm-ups) all help to restore flexibility.

To restore stability to your spine,  specific exercises must be done.   Moving with your body in proper alignment is necessary to correct faults in stability.  You must learn to sense or feel when your body is in proper alignment and practice moving in those positions.  After you learn to hold your body in proper position, it will be necessary to use weights.  Doing weighted movement with your body in proper alignment will rehabilitate and strengthen your muscles, ligaments, cartilage and bone structures.  You will feel better, move better and be stronger.
