Castro Valley Chiropractic and Vertebral Subluxation Complex

Chiropractic professionals can quickly detect if a patient suffers from VSC or Vertebral Subluxation Complex. Through spinal manipulation, Castro Valley Chiropractic professionals can spot if the patient has it. In fact, you are probably suffering from it now and you have no idea that you already have this complex.  Vertebral subluxation is the misalignment of the vertebra as compared to the above and below vertebraes. The misalignment produces stress to the soft tissues that surrounds the misaligned vertebrae. These soft tissues could be the muscles, discs, ligaments, joints and/or tendons. Misalignment is an effect produced by the regular wear and tear through our day to day activities which is why we would feel pain on the back, inflammation spasm, tenderness and sometimes even the mobility is reduced.

Also, vertebral subluxations also impair the nerve functions. As an effect of this, the body organs can’t communicate well with each other as the nerves are compromised. This makes the body less capable of healing itself and the patient can’t reach the optimal well being that he/she could have reached if the spinal column is only aligned properly. Castro Valley chiropractic clinics know about VSC very well and they help their patients achieve optimum health through regular chiropractic sessions.

Since misalignment of the vertebrae happens due to the regular wear and tear, once this is fixed doesn’t mean that it will never be misaligned again. As we go back to our regular routine and if we don’t have the perfect posture then eventually misalignment will happen again. Once this happens again, we go back to feeling less happy and more stressed which should be a trigger for you to go back for another treatment session with your Castro Valley chiropractic professional.

For VSC to be completely healed, the 5 components of vertebral subluxation complex must be eliminated first. These 5 components are: kinesiopathology, myopathology, neuropatholy, histopathology and the pathophysiology. Your chiropractor would explain further what these components are but the best way to explain it, especially with the first four components, is to imagine having an inflamed tooth. The area on the affected tooth would swell. Once the tooth’s swelling stopped, it doesn’t mean there’s no longer a problem with the tooth.

In order to get treated and to avoid having vertebral subluxation complex again, the patient must get treated with their Castro Valley chiropractic professional and avoid factors that would cause it. There are physical causes as well as emotional and chemical causes for this. Physical causes include bad posture and an acute trauma through an accidental impact. Emotional causes are stress and the chemical causes are alcohol or drug use s well as poor nutrition and diet. Chemical causes also include toxins from the air we breathe and the water we drink. It is best to consult your chosen chiropractor about what you should do to avoid suffering from the effects of vertebral subluxation complex again.
