class as cocaine• MENTAL ILLNESS– 1 in 5 kids

What is The Perfect Storm?

Physical Stress (Trauma)• In-utero constraint

• Birth trauma– Forceps– Vacuum– Cord-wrapped– C-section (esp. emergency)

• Childhood falls• Back to Sleep Program• Car seats, Baby Bjorn, Bouncy Seats..

Chemical Stress (Toxins)

• Preservatives, Pesticides Processed Foods

• Sugar, Grains, Dairy based diets• Environmental chemicals

EVERYWHERE– Household cleaners, detergents, etc.

• Vaccine ingredients, adjuvants, fillers–Mercury, aluminum, sorbitol, and much

more…

Understanding Chiropractic

• It’s not about sore backs…

“The function of the nervous system is to perceive the

environment and coordinate the behavior of all other cells.”

- Dr. Bruce Liption, PhD Biologist

How it works…

Subluxation: Cause and Effect

(Nerd Time!)

THE CAUSE:1.Physical Stress2.Chemical Stress3.Emotional Stress

THE EFFECT:1.Dys-kinesia2.Dys-afferentation3.Dys-autonomia4.Dys-ponesis5.Dys-connected

Dys-kinesia Subluxation occurs when a joint

becomes MISALIGNED and FIXATED losing its ability to go through proper range

of motion.

The “Main Breaker”

Where does it start?

QuickTime™ and aJVT/AVC Coding decompressorare needed to see this picture.

The Real Pandemic…• In his research , Gottfried Guttman MD, found

that spinal injury was present in 80% of the infants he examined shortly after birth, causing interference to neurologic and immune function.

• Concludes that “observations of motor development and manual control of the occipito-atlanto-axial joint complex should be obligatory after every difficult birth.”

• Furthermore, this occipito-atlanto-axial joint complex “should be examined and, if required, specifically adjusted… (as) the success of adjustment overshadows every other type of treatment.

Dys-kinesia Dys-afferentation

INPUT CONTROLS OUTPUT

•There are actually 7 senses!–Movement• Proprioception (good)• Nociception (bad)

– Balance and Coordination• Vestibular

A great illustration…

Road Block? Communication is “jammed”

Proprioception- The Role Of The Spine…

• Neurological stimulation from MOVEMENT “charges the brain’s batteries”

• Over half of the neurons in the spinal cord are there for this specific function

• 60% of proprioceptive input comes from spine– 1/3rd of it just from the upper neck /

brainstem

Subluxation Alters Input

MISALIGNMENT

FIXATION

STRESS

The Gate TheorySUBLUXATION

DECREASED PROPRIOCEPTION

INCREASED NOCICEPTION

This leads to the next “D”

Dys-autonomia“A state of imbalance or dysfunction of

the Autonomic Nervous System”•Controls organs, glands, and blood vessels•Controls all other major systems:– Immune System– Digestive System– Endocrine System

Gas Vs. Brake Pedal

Neurology of Stress…1.Stimulus detected by Nervous System– Sympathetic system engages– Directly influences visceral function– Adrenals produces stress hormones

2.Nociception reaches CNS– Amygdala - stress and anxiety center– Hippocampus - learning center– Frontal Cortex - cognitive behavior, personality

expression, decision making, and moderating social behavior

3.Continues onto the HPA Axis– Hypothalamus Pituitary Adrenals

Role in Pediatric Neuro-Development

“You can’t be in growth and protection at the same time.”

Dr. Bruce Lipton

Dys-ponesisDefined as a reversible physiological state

consisting of unnoticed, misdirected neurophysical reactions to various agents (environmental events, bodily sensations, emotions, and thoughts) and the

repercussions of these reactions throughout the organism.

ERRORS IN ENERGY OUTPUT AND ORGANIZATION

The Final Result: Dys-Connected

Autism: “Locked in” (Evan’s Story)

Autism: Where It Starts…

• Mostly non-verbal• 3-5 words

• Unable to follow directions• No eye contact, perception,

etc.• Very emotional, disruptive• Horrible sleeper• No interaction with parents

and siblings• Dx'd with "autism" by LGH

in July• Started care that day

Evan’s Results:• fell asleep in parking lot, 4PM-

time• playing with his brother and

sister and imitating their play• doing funny things purposely to

engage us• pooping a ton - detoxing!• developed a fever – HEALING!

After 2 Weeks:• speaking in full sentences• exploding with development

and speech• sleeping better• behaving better• potty-trained• never sick• nearly back on track!!!
