- 0:00Speaker 1: Time not for back to the basics in healthcare with
- 0:02Speaker 1: balanced Life Chiropractic, we have doctor Harley with us.
- 0:04Speaker 2: Hello, doctor Harley, Hey John, how are you.
- 0:06Speaker 1: I'm good. We're gonna talk about the nervous system today,
- 0:09Speaker 1: and that is like all over your whole body, isn't
- 0:11Speaker 1: it right?
- 0:11Speaker 2: Right? You know, it's kind of an important part of
- 0:13Speaker 2: our body. You know, we've talked about this a little
- 0:16Speaker 2: bit in the past. It's always good to bring up
- 0:18Speaker 2: refresh it because you know, at the end of the day,
- 0:20Speaker 2: that's what we chiropractors really are influencing working with Sure
- 0:26Speaker 2: you think chiropractor, Oh, they're the back doctors. They stab, crackle,
- 0:30Speaker 2: pop your back back into place, which that's definitely one
- 0:33Speaker 2: aspect of it. But at the end of the day,
- 0:35Speaker 2: by adjusting your back, we're helping your nervous system.
- 0:39Speaker 1: And a lot of the time, if there's like a
- 0:41Speaker 1: little pinch somewhere, it's like if you kink a hose,
- 0:44Speaker 1: it might not be kinked all the way. There might
- 0:45Speaker 1: still be a little bit of water coming up, but
- 0:47Speaker 1: when you unkink that hose, it makes a big difference,
- 0:49Speaker 1: doesn't it.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Right? Yeah, good way, Like kind of like the spinal
- 0:51Speaker 2: cord area has a lot of fluid in there, so
- 0:54Speaker 2: when we have misalignments along our spine, it does kind
- 0:57Speaker 2: of become almost like a kink in the water hose
- 0:58Speaker 2: is going to slow down that water flow through that area,
- 1:02Speaker 2: and it doesn't just get better once it's out of
- 1:04Speaker 2: that area. It's you know, the more you have, the
- 1:07Speaker 2: more backed up and loss of fluid movement we're gonna have.
- 1:10Speaker 2: So those adjustments actually help restore that proper movement through
- 1:15Speaker 2: the spinal cord as well as releasing irritation tension along
- 1:19Speaker 2: the nervous system as well.
- 1:21Speaker 1: And sometimes we go, well, why are you adjusting me here?
- 1:24Speaker 1: I have a pain way over here, But just like
- 1:26Speaker 1: that kink toast, the water's coming out over on that end,
- 1:29Speaker 1: or it's not coming out because the kink is way
- 1:31Speaker 1: up here. It can be a little ways away, can it.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Right. I like to look at like our body like
- 1:36Speaker 2: kind of the spine, kind of like a bunch of
- 1:37Speaker 2: guys on a job site. If you have one guy
- 1:40Speaker 2: that's slacking off, well he's not really gonna be complaining, right,
- 1:43Speaker 2: He's trying to hide, like, don't look at me, I'm
- 1:45Speaker 2: not working. Everyone else around him is having to work
- 1:48Speaker 2: a lot harder. They're probably gonna be a little mad
- 1:49Speaker 2: that they're having to pick up the slack for this
- 1:51Speaker 2: guy and not working. So our body's kind of like
- 1:54Speaker 2: a lot of times where those aches and pains are
- 1:56Speaker 2: at that we're noticing. It's complaining because an area that's
- 1:59Speaker 2: not moving. You know, they're having to work harder because
- 2:02Speaker 2: the area is not moving like it's supposed to. So
- 2:05Speaker 2: we as chiropractice like, that's what we're trying to figure out.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Where is that guy that's not making a lot of
- 2:10Speaker 2: noise that's actually causing the problem and affecting the areas
- 2:13Speaker 2: around it.
- 2:14Speaker 1: And I love in the balance life chiropractic office that
- 2:17Speaker 1: you use technology, so it's not just guessing you have
- 2:20Speaker 1: systems that you can It's almost like, you know, getting
- 2:22Speaker 1: connected to machine like your car does. When they go
- 2:24Speaker 1: something wrong with my car, they plug it in and go, oh, hey,
- 2:27Speaker 1: this sylenoid is bad or this little thing is bad.
- 2:29Speaker 1: You've got not quite the same thing, but something similar that.
- 2:32Speaker 1: It's what it reminds me of anyway.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Right, it's kind of like a diagnostic testing. There's no
- 2:36Speaker 2: inserting blogs or anything into someone.
- 2:40Speaker 1: No, it's gotta plug this in, pull those pants down.
- 2:43Speaker 1: I don't know where else you plug it in. But
- 2:45Speaker 1: fake goodness, that doesn't happen.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Here, right, that's not what we do it. One is
- 2:49Speaker 2: like a giant thermometer. It's reading the temperature of your skin.
- 2:53Speaker 2: We've run it up the back. It goes side to
- 2:56Speaker 2: side reading the temperature changes. So it's just like a
- 2:58Speaker 2: giant thermometer reading that temperature change. The other one is
- 3:02Speaker 2: a muscle scan that reads the muscle activity, the electrical
- 3:06Speaker 2: usage of your muscles, same technology as an EKG, and
- 3:10Speaker 2: that helps us look at how is the muscle system looking,
- 3:12Speaker 2: Are they overactive, underactive? And so that way we can
- 3:15Speaker 2: get a bigger picture of where really the cause of
- 3:17Speaker 2: the problem is at versus just you know, you tell
- 3:20Speaker 2: me pain is here, We're just going to focus on pain,
- 3:22Speaker 2: but we're actually figuring out where is this issue happening at.
- 3:25Speaker 1: If somebody listening is going, hey, I've never had that
- 3:27Speaker 1: where I go, but boy, that sounds like something I need.
