Atlas Displacement and Venous Insufficiency - A Case for Some Types of MS

Atlas Withdrawal and Venous Discomfort - The Case for MS

Many people who knew me when I was in my practice before know that I work with many people with chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's. It always struck people that I would see a patient with the problem because most people would associate chiropractic with back pain and neck pain. Why would someone with MS see a chiropractor?

In fact, these conditions are incurable, and although they may not lead to premature death, they have a detrimental effect on one's quality of life. They can take your ability to work out, write, type, and play music. They can also take away your sense of sight or your ability to walk around. Like everyone else, these patients are looking for something that can help make their lives a little better, even if they have to look outside the standard medical box.

One of the reasons I go from a traditional chiropractic approach to someone focusing on the neck is because I see what a dramatic effect that head and neck have on a person's overall health. While I was practicing and learning from other doctors, I saw many patients walking into the office with sticks and wheelchairs, and walking out after proper Structural Correction. I knew this was a job I wanted to learn and master.

Bring the clock back to 2014 and I need to be grateful and honored to help patients with Parkinson's, MS, and postoperative co-morbidities. I also had the opportunity to publish 2 studies on the effects of corrective Atlas Displacement on Parkinson's patients & patients with MS.

I do not mean to say that this is a specific treatment or treatment for this condition. I'm not saying that everyone gets better; I've certainly taken care of a few people who didn't see any change at all. But as someone who wants to learn and master effective ways to help people who believe they cannot be helped, it is important that we understand how and why these people get these terrible conditions.

Head, Neck, and ... Veins?
In 2008, Italian surgeons did something that made the world think differently about MS and the brain. Dr. Paolo Zamboni began to study the correlation of multiple sclerosis and venous obstruction in the neck. His research mainly looked at large jugular veins. When the blood vessels block, it produces back blood vessels and metabolic waste that can increase back pressure in the brain. In the small sample of MS patients treated, many patients with MS showed no symptoms or significant improvement.

The condition is commonly known as Chronic Cerebrospinal Chronic Insufficiency, or CCSVI for the short term. While there is no shortage of skepticism and controversy surrounding the theory, one thing is certain that he has distracted the world.

For chiropractic specialists, especially those who focus on the Upper Cervical Spine, this theory can be a wonderful explanation of how we impact the lives of these patients. But instead of affecting the larger jugular vein, the neck structure can affect the smaller veins in the skull.

When the alignment of the head and neck structure is lost, it can affect the small veins in the head that are responsible for draining the blood used from the nervous system. When the old blood becomes damp and supported by chronic obstruction, old blood and cerebral spinal fluid can begin to damage sensitive nerve cells.

In many ways, many chronic degenerative neurological diseases have similar properties to people with traumatic brain injury, so both MS and mTBI require much further research.

Not All Cases Are The Same

I have taken care of people where their hands and feet are getting better, where people are doing better without sticks, or cases of severe fatigue are starting to get their energy back. Many times, these people experience some kind of trauma or autumn or even a few years before the symptoms begin. Many times, this accident or trauma occurs without the presence of pain. The truth is that the Atlas Transfer Complex can happen without symptoms for years.

However, this does not mean that every case of MS is related to this problem. There are many patients who can get this corrected, and have no improvement in their MS symptoms. MS is a very complex disease, where 2 people with MS may experience it very differently.

Regardless of whether someone has MS or not, if you suspect Atlas problems, new research projects show that correcting Atlas can play a role in preventing chronic damage to our brain.
