[petyou]

i’m having a panic attack at work bc my coworker keeps like. saying directed stuff to me about someone else on ADA and then directly after she went on a rant about how her mom is ridiculous for getting upset because she has cysts in her breasts and kept saying she must want cancer and be excited to die because she’s scared

I don’t understand what the “one solution” is even supposed to be, he doesn’t give an actual solution at all! “Respect your body” isn’t a solution to an incurable disease, goodness

He’s talking about subluxation (which is why he showed before and after pictures of correcting the spine and explained that her symptoms went away) being the underlying source and/or aggravation of illness because of the pressure it puts on the nervous system which impairs the brain’s ability to communicate with the body and control proper organ function and regenerate. 

What needs to be understood is that this doesn’t mean that ALL fibro patients, or people with the other associated illnesses have subluxation but what we know is that a lot of us DO have upper cervical curvature and thus, subluxation. Correcting subluxation is not going to be a complete magical cure-all but because of how it impairs the brain and body, when you correct it and get proper blood, nerve, and brain stem flow, your body will be better able to function overall, even with the presence of incurable illness. This is possibly an explanation for the fellow fibro patients I have heard of who only have minor but persistent muscle pains that go away when they take magnesium supplements and why I seem to have fibro so, so much worse to the point where it disabled me.

From What Doctors will NOT tell you about Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, changes after adjustment:

Physical Functioning increased from 58% to 85% 

General Health improved from 35% to 55% 

Vitality improved from 17% to 55%

Social Functioning increased from 40% to 70% 

Mental Health improved from 50% to 70% 

In addition, both the quality and quantity of sleep improved based on all testing and there was significant decrease in sleep medication usage. One of the most amazing changes was, the cortisol levels of the subjects ALL returned to a normal range. The reason cortisol is so important is that it is a hormone that when found in high levels indicates that the body is under chronic stress. People who suffer with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, both suffer from poor sleep quality. When someone does not get into the deep sleep cycle (REM), their body produces high levels of cortisol. 

Amazingly, following Upper Cervical Care their individual bodies showed a quantifiable change in cortisol levels that indicates their bodies were no longer chronically stressed.

Since my adjustment I have been sleeping deeply for over 3 hours a night when previously I got 0-2 for basically the past 10 years (I have a Garmin and I keep a very close eye on my sleep because the fibro and narcolepsy have made sleeping very very hard for me). I wake up feeling recharged and sharp. I have a sense of calm and well-being that I’ve never felt before, ever, despite the pain and fatigue I am still experiencing as my body is now shifting and adjusting to this sudden flow of communication and lack of a need to compensate. My organs are lighting up one by one and will continue to do so the more my spine takes its time shifting and easing the pressure off of my nervous system. 

What I also need people to understand, because this does sound pretty woo and too good to be true, is the condition I was the night before I got the procedure done. It was 3.5 weeks in on the worst fibromyalgia flare up I have ever had. The pain was horrible, I got down to 102lbs, I was unable to eat or stop throwing up, I was unable to stand for more than a few minutes, I missed several days of work, I was also suicidally depressed again which is what usually happens to me during the worst kinds of flare ups. My dad was going to take me to the ER because I was falling apart physically and mentally. I was literally screaming crying last Wednesday night. It was very, very bad and I was very, very scared again. My dad called the closest atlas orthogonal chiropractor out of desperation because he was also terrified for me and my rapidly worsening condition.

Since she adjusted me I have also had zero depression or brain fog. I’ve never felt such clear thoughts or felt like I am “plugged” in before. I feel like a real person for once. 

I have a detailed timeline that puts things into perspective and really shows how much sense this all makes: http://newvagabond.tumblr.com/post/155953775022/news-atlas-subluxation-and-chronic-illness I will keep updating it throughout my recovery.
