Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Time out. We're back to the basics in healthcare with
- 0:02Balas Life Chiropractic. We're here with doctor Harley and we're
- 0:05working our way down the spine. One is this vertebrae
- 0:08at a time?
- 0:09Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, you.
- 0:10Speaker 1: Have learning stuff. And last week we were on C five,
- 0:14So let me get see twelve.
- 0:16Speaker 2: There's a twelve, the T twelve.
- 0:19Speaker 1: We'll get to that eventually, but see six today. And
- 0:22what's the biggest difference between C five and C six.
- 0:25I'm guessing it's that.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Number mostly, And we're you know, we're really more into
- 0:29like the lower part of that brachial plexus, so we're
- 0:33looking more at the muscles now in our necks. We're
- 0:37seeing more neck muscles, shoulder muscles. We can even see
- 0:40like kind of more like deeper in the back of
- 0:41the throat, kind of like the tonsil area. So issues
- 0:46with C six misalignments, we can start seeing more neck pain,
- 0:49upper pain in the upper arms and the upper back.
- 0:52Whooping cough crew because we're kind of starting to get
- 0:55more into that lower part of the throat, almost into
- 0:58the chest.
- 1:00Speaker 1: Area, and we're getting close kiss there's only one more
- 1:03in the neck and then it is like a whole
- 1:04different part of the body.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we get out of that the neck partion,
- 1:08then we go up to the mid back, and then
- 1:10we'll go down to the lumbar spine. A fun thing
- 1:13of note with the neck. We haven't talked a lot
- 1:15about developmental aspects with this, but all the different curves
- 1:19in our body, I think we've talked about this a
- 1:21little bit all come from the different parts of If
- 1:23you watch like a baby start to grow and move,
- 1:27so that tell me time where they're working their head up.
- 1:30We start seeing the neck curve start to develop more.
- 1:34We talked about how four five, six, and seven we
- 1:36start seeing more arthritis. Well, that's why that neck curve
- 1:39is so important, as it helps support the weight of
- 1:42our head. Otherwise our neck muscles get more involved, and
- 1:45now we really start having more neck pain, shoulder tension.
- 1:48We can even start seeing more numbness tingling into the
- 1:51fingers when we are in mislignments in that c four five,
- 1:54six and seven, as those are part of the break
- 1:56up plexis that go all the way down into our fingertips.
- 1:58So if you're having numbness, weakness, that kind of stuff
- 2:02in your hands or your arms, it could actually be
- 2:04an issue going on in your neck, not so much
- 2:07an issue with the hand or the arm specifically.
- 2:09Speaker 1: And I know we've talked about like text neck. Is
- 2:13that something that would affect the C six or is
- 2:15that not really something? Is that a different part of
- 2:17the neck.
- 2:18Speaker 2: No, that's going to be all That lower portion of
- 2:20the neck is where we see more issues from the
- 2:22loss of that cervical curve.
- 2:24Speaker 1: So see in here's stiff neck, paint in the upper arms,
- 2:26whooping cough group, those kind of things. So if somebody's
- 2:28dealing with those, I would just encourage you folks. You
- 2:30don't need to know exactly which bon it is. If
- 2:32you come in here and talk to doctor Harley, she
- 2:34can kind of help maneuver that because they don't need
- 2:36to walk in and go it's my C seven dot right.
- 2:39Speaker 2: You might have an idea, but we will, you know,
- 2:41some of the technology, the testing we've talked about, we
- 2:43will be utilizing that when you come in to help
- 2:46identify really where the cause of the problem is, where
- 2:48all these are interconnected, So it could actually be an
- 2:50issue somewhere else that's causing the problem with the area
- 2:53that you're dealing with.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Very nice so somebody struggling with any of the things
- 2:56we talked about today or anything else. If you have headaches,
- 2:58or if you have just to sore back, you know
