NeuroSpinology is a profession focused on the dynamic relationship between spinal movement and neural function. When the connective tissues that bind the bones of the spine together are damaged, there are inevitable changes to the movement capacity between them. These changes have ramifications for the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots that are housed within the spinal column. NeuroSpinologists use their hands to gently apply highly specific techniques around the spinal column for the purpose of stimulating the neural circuits associated with the damaged areas. Consistent stimulation of these circuits expands their capability, thus enabling the nervous system, and the body as a whole, to perform at optimum levels.
Spinal dynamics & neural function are irrevocably intertwined
The nervous system controls every single structure and function in the human body. Once we know this fact, one of the most telling decisions any of us can ever make for ourselves and our dependents is to ensure that we take adequate steps to enable our nervous system to function properly so that we can fulfill our potential and always be at our best.
The spinal cord and spinal nerve roots are the communication highways via which our brain receives information from our internal and external environments, and also through which it delivers its vital controlling and coordinating commands. It is therefore imperative that the proper functioning environment of these information networks is maintained, because it is the surroundings of the spinal cord and nerve roots that determine how they work.
This “working environment” of the nervous system is set up by the spinal column, which houses and protects the delicate nerve fibres, any change in the dynamics, or movements, of individual spinal bones (called vertebrae) affects the nervous system environment and potentially alters both the types of signals being carried, and the frequency of them.
What this translates to is that any change in the relationship between vertebrae will interfere with the communication between the brain and the rest of the body and therefore affect the way that we function and perform. This situation is called spinal obtrusion, and it occurs when the forces to which we are all subjected on a day-to-day basis overcome our body’s ability to resist and adapt, thus breaking down the ligaments and other connective tissues responsible for maintaining proper spinal dynamics and interactions.
Once weaknesses are established in our spines, anything we do that puts greater pressure onto our bodies will exploit those weak areas and create a compound, “snowballing” effect. Falls, accidents, poor postural habits, lifting and bending, even dietary pressures and poor exercise routines can all bring about spinal obtrusions, as can emotional and mental stresses and genetic weaknesses.
In what ways could spinal obtrusions affect us? In every way imaginable. Nervous system interference can change our moods, our outlook on life, our sleeping habits, our concentration span and memory, our productivity levels, our resistance to disease, our recovery rates from injury, our creativity, our organ function, our mobility, and our capacity to tolerate stress and the inevitable demands of modern living. Such changes can deeply influence our relationships, our careers, our families, our prosperity and our entire quality of life.
NeuroSpinology services are specifically designed to help us by assisting the body in restoring the proper dynamic relationship between spinal movements and nervous system function.
NeuroSpinologists are trained in a rigorous Advanced Diploma of NeuroSpinology programme, and our techniques are painless, precise and immediately effective. Importantly, NeuroSpinologists don’t use the harsh manipulative techniques utilised in some other professions, as these procedures often cause further damage to the complex connective tissues around the spine.
NeuroSpinology technical applications are directed at stimulating and facilitating the neural (nervous system) circuits related to the specific areas where there are spinal obtrusions. This is done by applying very gentle and specific techniques around the spine with the hands. When delivered consistently enough, the nervous system responds by building up all of the circuits involved and literally “re-wiring” itself so that it becomes potent enough to repair the damaged structures, take back full control of spinal movements, and restore the proper functioning environment for the spinal cord and spinal nerves.
