A Healthy Spine Equals A Healthy You

January 6, 2007

With the start of a New Year, January is also a great time to get

yourself back to good health!

It may surprise you to learn that taking good care of your back, or

more importantly your spine, can help improve your overall health.

The nervous system, your body's center for all mental activity, lies

within your spinal cord. Over a decade ago, scientists discovered a

relationship between your nervous system and your immune system. If

you have curves or misalignments in your spine, they keep your

nervous system from working normally, decreasing your immunity and

increasing your susceptibility to disease. Doctors of chiropractic

can put your spine back in its proper place to help your body work

at its best!

Taking care of your feet can also help your spine. When you walk,

your feet go through a particular cycle, called the gait cycle. It

has three parts: when your heel hits the ground, when your whole

foot is on the ground, and when you push-off the ground to take the

next step. Research has proven that there are small, important

movements in your spine during this cycle. If you have any problems

with your gait cycle, you will eventually have problems with your

spine. Foot Levelers can help.

Foot Levelers works with your chiropractic treatment to help your

body stay healthier longer. They are the world's exclusive provider

of Spinal Pelvic Stabilizers, custom-made orthotics you wear in your

shoes. By supporting all three arches of your foot, they help

provide a balanced foundation for your spine and support you

throughout all parts of the gait cycle. Stabilizers help hold your

chiropractic adjustments longer, keeping your body in its correct

alignment and all your important body systems working hard.
