  Time out for back to the basics and healthcare with Balanced Life Chiropractic, and
• 0:03
  we have doctor Harley with us. How you doing, doctor Harley? Hey,
• 0:06
  John, I am trying to keep it cool on. God, it's
• 0:08
  getting a little bit cooler. Yeah, it got very warm outside, didn't
• 0:12
  it. Yeah, And our AC wasn't working in the office earlier this week,
• 0:15
  so it's nice that it's cooling off now. Yeah. Absolutely, And
• 0:19
  we had some outside projects we were doing. You know, we waited until
• 0:23
  it was almost one hundred degrees to do there, so of course that's usually
• 0:25
  when that happens. So we talked a little bit last week about Balance Life
• 0:29
  Chiropractic, but let's talk today about the torque technique that you guys ulilize,
• 0:34
  because that's not something that every chiropractor uses, is it. Yeah. So
• 0:37
  yeah, last week we talked a little bit more about our office. You
• 0:39
  know, we see a lot of families and kiddos. We also use some
• 0:42
  technology, and then our technique is more based on the nervous system. It's
• 0:48
  called tonal chiropractic adjusting. If you're familiar with the different types of adjusting,
• 0:51
  you know, there's structural which is like the manual snap, crackle, pop,
• 0:55
  trying to move bones. Tonal is looking more at your nervous system and
• 0:58
  helping to facilitate a nerve response. So our nerves, you know, they
• 1:03
  run at a certain frequency, and when they get off that frequency, it's
• 1:07
  going to cause some static in the system. We're gonna have some problems.
• 1:11
  So the kind of idea of tonal adjusting is it's going to help break up
• 1:15
  that static and get back to the proper frequency of the nervous system is supposed
• 1:19
  to be running on, helping to calm down the irritability in the system.
• 1:23
  If that makes sense to you, Yeah, absolutely, And I would say
• 1:26
  your technique seems to be very precise, and there's even some instrumentation that is
• 1:30
  involved. Yeah, So there's different types of tonal adjusting. This one that
• 1:34
  we use is called torque release technique. So torque would be twisting, so
• 1:38
  in a big sense it's untwisting of the spinal canal and the nervous system.
• 1:42
  All it's really just helping to calm down the nervous system and get it so
• 1:47
  it's not quite so irritable, and it is kind of more about precision.
• 1:49
  It's less is more when it comes with our nervous system, so we might
• 1:53
  not have adjusted as much as you're like, oh, snapman like a girlowstick.
• 1:56
  You always hear see those memes on Facebook. Sometimes when you do too
• 2:00
  much, it can overload and overwhelm your nervous system and it might seem like,
• 2:04
  oh, that adjustment didn't seem like it held or it didn't do anything
• 2:07
  where With tonal where because we're kind of even less is more. If you
• 2:09
  think of like a computer that has too many windows open, it starts getting
• 2:14
  slow and sluggish and it's not working very well. With torque release and tonal
• 2:17
  chiropractic adjusting, we're kind of like closing each tab each time, so we're
• 2:23
  slowly working on calment down versus just forcing close the whole thing. Yeah,
• 2:27
  so it's yeah, less is more, And to me, it's almost like,
• 2:30
  you know, if you're working on a Swiss watch, you know this
• 2:34
  amazing time piece, you would use a delicate tool for that. You wouldn't
• 2:37
  say I'm going to just smack it with a rubber mallet until that thing goes
• 2:39
  back into place. But there are some places where I feel like that's kind
• 2:43
  of what they do, right. It just kind of you know, there's
• 2:46
  over two hundred some chiropractic techniques out there, and it feelings like chiropractic is
• 2:51
  kind of like trying on shoes. You got to figure out what works best
• 2:53
  for you. You know, the regular manual adjusting works great for a lot
• 2:58
  of people, some people might not like it quite that. So this is
• 3:00
  a little bit more of a gentle adjustment. But it's more about quality of
• 3:04
  change versus Sometimes I feel like manual justin can be like a lot of change,
• 3:07
  like trying to make a lot of change really fast, versus totals more
• 3:10
  about we're trying to make long term change. If somebody listening is going,
• 3:14
  hey, you know what that sounds like, it's the right fit for me.
• 3:16
  If they've been looking for chiropractic care, maybe they haven't found that yet,
• 3:21
  or maybe they found something that they're going, well, I guess this
• 3:23
  kind of works for now, but it's not really what I'm looking for.
• 3:24

• 3:28
