Correction is Imperative: Without surgery or braces???

wpe1.jpg (4032 bytes)Orthopedic surgeons, general practice physicians, Osteopaths and even most Chiropractic doctors provide only temporary relief of a patient’s symptoms. Chiropractic doctors who have specialized in Applied Spinal Biomechanical Engineering (A.S.B.E.) can provide relief care and much more. The research: A patient can be under chiropractic care three times per week for ten years, take an x-ray in the beginning and at the end and upon comparison, there is no comparative corrective changes! ASBE doctors make corrective spinal changes in a matter of weeks that under standard chiropractic care could not be achieved in ten years of care! This technology has been so significant that we are able to help patients with scoliosis, failed back surgery cases and even disc herniations!

A.S.B.E. - A new scientific breakthrough

wpe2.jpg (6964 bytes)From the ASBE research, the spine's support structure is musculature, specifically, intrinsic muscles. Unless you re-strengthen the support structure, your spine will not change. You cannot escape gravity and you are constantly subjecting your spine to stress and load. A chiropractor can ADJUST your spine, and as soon as you leave the doctor, your spine is on it's way back out of position and back to abnormal motion. These special muscles dictate the motion and position of your spine. For children who have scoliosis, growth plates are an essential consideration. As a child's spine is subjected to stress and load, growth plates are influenced. This may adversely affect the growth in these centers of bone growth. Impaired growth, abnormal growth or even pre-mature closure of growth plates can happen if the stress on those areas is not alleviated. This leads to permanent spinal deformity.

What are the benefits of this type of care?

CORRECTING the cause of the problem, not just temporary pain relief with your spinal condition

Stop or slow any spinal degenerative changes (Arthritis) that   may be occurring in your spine

Improved performance in daily activities with proper, restorative spinal function

Participate in your care with custom designed spinal exercises that will always be good for you

Our approach to correcting Scoliosis:

After a physical examination, a special ultra high speed, low patient dosage stress x-ray examination is performed to determine the areas of muscle weakness and impaired spinal motion. Then, custom designed exercises are given to re-strengthen the weak and damaged support muscles. The information derived from this special x-ray examination provides for the most precise spinal adjustment, removing nervous system interference and the correction of your spinal condition.

The common statement is "I’ve been to my doctor and he has already given me back exercises." ASBE research has concluded that general or generic back exercises are detrimental to a person’s spine because they exercise the spine symmetrically, which will worsen the patient’s condition, because the spine simply is not symmetrical in structure and in function.
