A study published in Experimental Brain Research dropped some game-changing insights you’re going to love — and more importantly, you can use them to grow your referral network starting today.

Key Findings:

✅ Strength Boost: After a single spinal adjustment, participants experienced a 60% increase in maximal voluntary muscle contraction (SEMG) and a 16% increase in force production. That’s after just one adjustment.

✅ Brain-Body Upgrade: There was a 45% increase in cortical drive (measured via V-waves), suggesting enhanced communication from brain to muscle.

✅ Fatigue Resistance: Unlike the control group, participants who received spinal manipulation didn’t experience muscle fatigue — a potential game-changer for performance, rehab, and recovery.

✅ Neural Adaptation: The study confirmed neural plastic changes after spinal manipulation — meaning you’re not just moving bones, you’re rewiring brains.
“The spinal manipulation intervention appears to have prevented fatigue... and significantly increased cortical drive.”
— Haavik et al., 2014

This isn’t theory. It’s peer-reviewed evidence

This, coupled with research showing a 16% increase in muscle strength in young adults and a 6% increase in strength with Olympic Taekwondo athletes, shows the peripheral neurological benefits of Chiropractic care!https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-39577-5

Chiropractic adjustments show an average muscle strength improvement of 64.2% on the affected side of stroke patients!!

The objective of this study was to investigate whether a single session of chiropractic care could increase strength in weak plantar flexor muscles in chronic stroke patients. Maximum voluntary contractions (strength) of the plantar flexors, soleus evoked V-waves (cortical drive), and H-reflexes wer...

This study, done in Canada leaves no doubt as to where you should go for help with your low back pain! It’s especially relevant now with the opioid epidemic killing around 4 people per day in Australia!

But looks can be deceiving!
Research supports that bio max red light therapy can:
Reduce inflammation, reduce recovery time, improve circulation, promote mitochondrial activity, and promote the production of collagen and elastin.
