Extremely interesting information here! Who would have thought a chiropractor could affect your cholesterol levels! Read on!
"Millions of Americans have high blood pressure and turn to medication for help controlling it, but a trip to the chiropractor could be what the doctor ordered. Doctor Marshall Dickholtz has been fixing spines for five decades. He focuses his attention on the top bone of the spine at the base of the brain called the atlas. Dickholtz says, "When you have a pinched brain stem, it closes out your arteries. If the arteries close down, the blood pressure has to be higher to go through those arteries." Dickholtz says a misaligned atlas will raise blood pressure. He has a machine that checks alignment, and after checking x-rays, Dickholtz know just what to do. The treatment seems to be helping. A recent study out of Chicago reports a 17-point drop in blood pressure after the realignment."
