Orthospinology is a procedure within the field of chiropractic. Orthospinology is based on the work of Dr. John F. Grostic that began in 1946. It has been researched in the chiropractic colleges and individual offices for over 50 years. It is one of the main procedures researched and published in the Chiropractic Research Journal, a peer-reviewed journal. Orthospinology is a gentle, non-manipulative procedure that uses diagnostic images of the spine to determine the cause of your problem. Sophisticated x-ray analysis techniques are used to determine if your spine is properly aligned. Should the vertebra in the upper neck become misaligned affecting the nervous system, the Orthospinologist mathematically calculates a correction formula that can be used to gently reduce or correct the problem. Abnormal alignment of the vertebra can affect the function of the spine and may result in spinal related aches and pains. Should the nervous system become affected, problems can show up in many different parts of your body with no obvious explanations. This condition can exist with or without causing neck or back pain, so it is a good idea that everyone be screened.
					The Orthospinology Logo The Orthospinology Logo is designed to represent the base of the skull, perfectly aligned with the C1 or Atlas vertebra (it is bow tie shaped.) Below the C1 vertebra is the perfectly aligned top of C2 or Axis vertebra. In the center of the symbol are consecutively joined rings that represent the interference free communication within the spinal cord between the body and the brain.		Gentle Enough For the Whole Family The Orthospinology spinal correction is gentle enough for an infant or a grandmother with arthritis. Orthospinology is effective care for spines of all ages. The gentle correction is made by a chiropractic adjusting instrument or by hand.
		The Cutting Edge of Technology Orthospinology uses the latest in chiropractic technology to detect and correct irregular input to the nervous system. Diagnostic images of the spine are carefully analyzed. The chiropractor mathematically calculates the formula to gently produce the spinal correction.				Focus on Body Balance When the body is balanced, it is in a state of health. Body imbalance results from irregular input to the nervous system. The Orthospinologist will check to see if your body is balanced on every visit. If it is not, a spinal correction will be given. Are you balanced?
