  Speaker 1: Time now for Back to the Basics in Healthcare with
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Balanced Life Chiropractic. We're here with Dr.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Harley.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: As we're getting a tour of the spine, we're working
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: our way down, and we're up to T6, or we're
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: down to T6. And I see this one, it just
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: says one thing. Some of them have a whole bunch
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: of stuff that says stomach.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we are halfway through the thoracic spine. And some
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: of you listening are probably like, this is so cool.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: I'm enjoying it. Some of you are like, I hate this.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Can we move on? We'll get there. We got like
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: 33 segments. So we're kind of halfway through at this point.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: And as we are going down the spine, we've talked
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: that we've noticing more organ type things. So, yeah, we
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: are getting more into bigger organ specific issues that we're seeing.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: And T6 is a big one.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: And this is stuff that the things that this can
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: help are more internal things. So if I'm having issues
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: on the inside. So a lot of the time when
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: you think of a chiropractor, at least I think of
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: if I have a headache or if I have a backache,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: but I would not necessarily think, oh, I have a
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: tummy ache. Maybe it's my back. But that could be
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the issue, couldn't it?
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it very much can be. We see a lot
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: of digestive problems. We talk acid reflux is a big one.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: You know, as we look at, you know, we have
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: on our chart, we have the area, we have the symptoms,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: stomach conditions, irritable bowel type issues, indigestion, heartburn, reflux, a
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: lot of those digestion type problems. And we've talked about,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: you know, we have the parasympathetics part of the nervous system,
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: the sympathetics part of the nervous system, So that also
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: plays in there as well. If we're always in sympathetic
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: or fight-or-flight mode, our stomach's not going to be working
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: very well. So that's where we see adjusting the nervous system,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: helping it to regulate. We see more of a balance
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: between those systems, and we see a big change with
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: digestive issues especially.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Very nice. And I know a lot of those things,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: when you think about heartburn and reflux and different indigestion issues,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of the time people are conditioned to drink
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: some stuff for it or take some tablets and pills
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: for it. I'm a big fan of not taking stuff
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: because if you don't have to take stuff, if there's
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: a way that you can just adjust the problem and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: fix it instead of masking the symptoms, that's a lot smarter.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a better long-term solution. And acid reflux is
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: one of those. I'll have patients tell me they just
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: got diagnosed with it. It's like, oh, really? What changed?
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Have you changed your diet a lot? You know, are
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: you eating more red meat, drinking more wine, coffee? You know,
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: all those things that are supposed to affect our stomach.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: It's like, no, just whenever I eat, it's like, well,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: that's not normal. So it's definitely not your food. What
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: else is going on? And I'm like, well, how's your
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: stress levels been? Oh, work's been crazy busy. I've had
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: so much going on. Well, there's going to be part
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: of the problem right there is you're not, your body's
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: not handling your stress load like it should. And we
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: see that with the nervous system getting kind of overloaded,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: you know, overwhelmed. And it needs that regulation that helped
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: to get over your stress. And we start seeing acid
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: reflux and things like that start to improve when the
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: nervous system is more regulated and handling that stress better.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: If somebody listening is going, man, that sounds like me.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I've got some issues. Maybe it's my T6. They maybe
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: didn't know that it was their T6 before, but they
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: knew there were some issues. If they want to come
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: in and find out if this is something that could
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: help them, what is the best way to set up
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: that appointment?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: And you don't need to know exactly what's going on
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: with you. That's why we have that day one process
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: where we sit down and we talk with you about
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: your current health problems, past health history, trying to find
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the answer to what's really going on. It starts with
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: a phone call. It's the simplest way to get a
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: hold of us. Our phone number is 605-215-1785. We even
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: have a book online option on our website to get
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: that new patient appointment scheduled. Very nice.
