Groundbreaking!

Neck posture snd the normal cervical curve EFFECTS BLOOD FLOW TO OUR BRAINS!

Keep working on your neck posture with corrective care, pro-lordotic bands and Dennerol posture block!

🚨 Big News in Chiropractic Research! 🚨

We are thrilled to share groundbreaking research we published in Brain Circulation.

🎯 Here’s the breakthrough:
We took patients with abnormal cervical curves, performed MRI angiograms, then re-positioned their cervical spine into a healthy lordosis—without them even leaving the table—and performed another MRI angiogram.
📊 A PhD analyzed the pixel intensity of these images to assess blood flow to the brain.
The results? Mind-blowing.
We found that loss of cervical lordosis may reduce cerebral blood flow by over 200%. Let that sink in—over 200%!
This may be the first paper ever to directly link cervical biomechanics to cerebral blood flow using real-time angiogram data. Given that one of the leading hypotheses in Alzheimer’s and dementia research is chronic cerebellar hypoxia, this paper has powerful implications for long-term brain health.
🔥 This study further validates what many of us in the chiropractic community already know:
Restoring and maintaining cervical lordosis is not just structural—it’s neurological and vascular.
We could not have done this without the support of our amazing Gold and Platinum members.
🙏 Thank you to our co-authors, who sacrificed time with their families and patients to make this study a reality.
📘 This is published in the Journal of Brain Circulation (2019) — Katz et al.
Support this movement. Buy the journal. Share the study. Educate your patients. Let’s show the healthcare world that this type of research is vital, necessary, and long overdue.
👉 Keep doing what you do—helping people through specific, research-backed chiropractic care. This is how we change lives. This is how we change the conversation.
With pride and gratitude,

Dont wait until symptoms appear. Consider getting your kids checked by a Structural chiropractor before symptoms occur. Wear and tear should be minimized by seeking to resolve motion deficiencies, stability deficiencies, and improving choices in postural loading of tissues WELL before the dysfunction becomes symptomatic. It’s why you see a dentist when your teeth DON’T hurt- to assess pathology before it’s a big problem. Once you drink something cold and FEEL a cavity, you’d have to agree that the cavity was forming WELL before that cold drink gave you the hint there was a cavity. Prevention is a decent strategy to consider in an age where our medical system is overburdened.

June is Scoliosis month!

🧍‍♀️📉 Early detection matters.

Did you know that 10% of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) cases experience a significant delay in diagnosis?^

Delayed detection can mean missed opportunities for early, non-invasive treatment – and can increase the risk of curve progression.

🌀 Encourage regular posture checks and early screening.

I have seen my elderly patients experience the improvement of balance and reduction in vertigo type sensations! There is even a diagnosis known as Cervico-genic dizziness that has an association with neck stiffness.
