Your body is divided into six powerful systems or Zones. Each Zone has a brain center and four nerve channels in your back that directly control the ability for your body to function normally. Take some time and learn about each zone.

GLANDULAR ZONE:
Since your body creates more chemicals than a pharmaceutical company, this Zone is your inner pharmacy. The Brain sends signals to the 200+ Glands in the body, releasing essential hormones and chemicals for health. Various stressors including thoughts, feelings and emotions affect our glandular system. If the stressors are of sufficient intensity, one or more subluxations of vertebrae will result. This subluxation will prohibit normal nerve energy from the brain center to the glands, resulting in decreased activity in some of the glands and increased activity in others. For example, prolonged fear or worry stresses the Adrenal glands and, over time, causes illness. This misalignment interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to your Glandular organs creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
The spinal cord levels involved with Zone 1 are as follows:
C1 - ATLAS
T1 - FIRST THORACIC
L1 - FIRST LUMBAR
S1 - FIRST SEGMENT OF THE SACRUM
The immediate effects obtained by a scientific adjustment and the application of the thrust on associated centers can be ascribed to stimulation of the associated nerve centers. Those nerves convey stimuli from the periphery to the CENTRAL BRAIN CENTER and from the CENTRAL BRAIN CENTER to the periphery. Unless these pathways are free, neither the afferent nor the efferent impulses will reach their destination. If the BRAIN CENTER, which is in control of the GLANDULAR SYSTEM and which is governed by INNATE INTELLIGENCE, is left unacquainted with the needs of the periphery, the necessary impulses will not be generated, because it is a fact that all outgoing nerve force is generated in response to a stimulus from the periphery. Were this not true, there would be no need for nerve endings in the periphery. All that would be required would be outgoing nerves designed to convey impulses to the various parts of the body whose need for such impulses would be appreciated by a central governing intelligence.
The fact, however, that there are peripheral nerve endings, and that their stimulation excites the generation of impulses, shows that these outgoing impulses are in a large measure generated only when the need for such impulses on the part of any structure in the organism is communicated to the CENTRAL BRAIN CENTER. Inasmuch as the functional activity of each part is dominated by the impulses which it received from the BRAIN CENTER, and since these impulses are generated only when the BRAIN CENTER is made acquainted with this need, it follows that the pathways over which the incoming and outgoing impulses travel must be made free. Hence, adjustment of the subluxated vertebrae (by removing impingement from the pathway) and stimulative thrusts over the associated areas, must be considered as the most effective, natural, and permanent means of restoring a Zone or circuit to normal.

ELIMINATIVE ZONE:
The Eliminative Zone is designed to ‘eliminate’ or flush out built up waste and toxins from your body; its organs include the sinuses, lungs, kidneys, intestine, bladder, colon and skin. Each cell in your body produces waste material as a natural byproduct of living; however it must have a way of flushing this out. Just like the plumbing system in your house, when it’s ‘backed up’ it’s a dirty place to live. It is the same with the body, when you have improper elimination, it prevents the harmful chemicals from flushing out, thus poisoning it from the inside out. When the Eliminative Zone is working 100%, you may ingest foul food, poisonous air, allergens, bacteria, and viral particles, without you even knowing it. Physical, mental, or chemical stress can cause a disturbance in the Brain Center as well as a spinal misalignment or subluxation in the coinciding Eliminative nerve channels. This Disturbance interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to your Eliminative organs creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
The spinal cord levels involved with Zone 2 are as follows:
C2 - AXIS
T3 - THIRD THORACIC
T12 - TWELFTH THORACIC
L2 - SECOND LUMBAR
A specific adjustment is given to the subluxated vertebrae listed above as well as a stimulative thrust to the other 3 associated vertebrae to restore the Zone back to normal.

|
| NERVE ZONE:
This Zone consists of 45 miles of nerves and is considered the Master balancing system of your body. It normally switches you “OFF” and “ON”. It allows you to relax, digest food and sleep well at night; at the same time it gets you up in the morning refreshed, energized and ready for action. Many people are stuck in an “ON” or “OFF” state due to their life style, many doctors call this depression or anxiety. This causes an overload of stress to your Nerve system. Just like the electricity in your house, when there is an overload, the fuses burn out. When your Nerve Zone “burns out”, you have low energy and loose your drive for life. Lack of sleep, poor diet, too little exercise and prolonged emotional stress can all wreak havoc on the Nerve Zone. Physical, mental, or chemical stress can cause a disturbance in the Brain Center as well as a spinal misalignment or subluxation in the coinciding nerve channels. This disturbance interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to and from your nervous system creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
The spinal cord levels involved with Zone 3 are as follows:
C3 - THIRD CERVICAL
T4 - FOURTH THORACIC
T9 - NINTH THORACIC
L3 - THIRD LUMBAR
A specific adjustment is given to the subluxated vertebrae listed above as well as a stimulative thrust to the other 3 associated vertebrae to restore the Zone back to normal.

|
| DIGESTIVE ZONE:
Your body can be compared to a high performance car, the cleaner and more pure the fuel the better it works. In order to have energy your body needs food to be broken down into the proper elements. The Digestive Zone is responsible for breaking down food and turning it into clean usable energy and “building blocks” for your body. From certain highly organized cells, the Innate Intelligence created pigments — marvels of color combination for the eyes, the skin, and the hair. There is red for the arterial blood; blue color combinations for the blood in the veins; yellow and green colors for the manufacture of bile; purple for the spleen; black for the choroid of the eye, the blues, the browns, the greens of the irises of the eyes; the brown of the freckles; the black, brown, yellow or red of the hair; and so on, ad infinitum. Functioning in the body are chemical processes and actions far beyond the comprehension of the world’s greatest chemist. Mysteries of medicines, enzymes, colors, hormones, “magical” actions that, be it remembered, are always tending towards health unless the encroachments of wrong living interfere with the functioning of the Innate Intelligence. The organs of the Digestive Zone include your liver, gall bladder, stomach, pancreas, and intestine. When this system has a disturbance, you can put the best organic food “fuel” into your body, but it is unable to reap the nutrient value. Many people are malnourished because their body is unable to break down the food into the proper usable elements. Also, some people combine foods improperly. Just as in the chemistry lab, if you put certain chemicals together, they explode. This causes much stress on the Digestive Zone. Physical, mental, or chemical stress can cause a disturbance in the Brain Center as well as a spinal misalignment or subluxation in the coinciding Digestive nerve channels. This misalignment interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to your Digestive organs creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
This zone is composed of the following areas:
C4 - FOURTH CERVICAL
T4 - FOURTH THORACIC
T8 - EIGHTH THORACIC
L4 - FOURTH LUMBAR
A specific adjustment is given to the subluxated vertebrae listed above as well as a stimulative thrust to the other 3 associated vertebrae to restore the Zone back to normal.

|
| MUSCULAR ZONE:
This Zone is responsible for keeping you upright and moving; its organs include 637+muscles, tendons, joints, ligaments and bones. When working properly this Zone replaces the muscle and skeletal cells for you, so you have a new musculoskeletal system every 7 years. Most people neglect to exercise or move their body, creating an unhealthy Musclar Zone. A disturbance in the Muscular Zone can create chronic pain and stiffness in joints, asymmetry in the musculature, atrophy/weakness in muscles and/or spasmed/overworked muscles. Accidents, falls, or physical traumas also cause an improper nerve supply to your muscles and joints. On an emotional level, when you get angry many muscles in the body contract and since your muscles structure effects of all other systems this causes poor Elimination, Digestion, Circulation, and Glandular function. Physical, mental, or chemical stress can cause a disturbance in the Brain Center as well as a spinal misalignment or subluxation in the Muscular nerve channels. This Disturbance interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to your Musculoskeletal system creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
This zone is composed of the following areas:
C5 - FIFTH CERVICAL
T5 - FIFTH THORACIC
T11 - ELEVENTH THORACIC
L5 - FIFTH LUMBAR
A specific adjustment is given to the subluxated vertebrae listed above as well as a stimulative thrust to the other 3 associated vertebrae to restore the Zone back to normal.

| CIRCULATORY ZONE:
This Zone includes the heart, arteries, veins and the lymphatic system (mini-trash cans). These 60,000 miles of Circulatory pathways carry nourishing oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body. It carries carbon dioxide waste and other toxic metabolites from all parts of the body to lungs and kidneys for Elimination. It carries nutrients absorbed in the mouth, stomach, and intestines throughout the body to produce the energy and “building blocks” needed to repair the tissues that make up the body. The Circulatory Zone also carries the hormones released by the Glandular Zone. Just like the engine in your car, without proper oil circulating through, it would seize up and stop working. The lymphatic system is like a daily oil changing system, collecting waste from the arteries and veins. It is then dumped in the lymph nodes, where white blood cells clean-up any debris and purify the lymph fluid, which is finally dumped back into the arterial-venous system. Since the Lymphatic system has no pump (like the heart), it is particularly dependent on the Muscular Zone to move the fluids around. Bed-ridden patients may develop bedsores due to the lack of movement in the lymphatic portion of the Circulatory Zone. Physical, mental, or chemical stress can cause a disturbance in the Brain Center as well as a spinal misalignment or subluxation in the Circulatory nerve channels. This Disturbance interferes with the proper brain/nerve signals traveling to your Circulatory Zone organs creating a multitude of dis-ease and problems:
This zone is composed of the following areas:
C6 - SIXTH CERVICAL
T2 - SECOND THORACIC
T10 - TENTH THORACIC
L1 - FIRST LUMBAR
A specific adjustment is given to the subluxated vertebrae listed above as well as a stimulative thrust to the other 3 associated vertebrae to restore the Zone back to normal.

Important Note: Chiropractic has only one goal. It is important to understand what this goal is, and to understand the method that is used to achieve it.
Adjustment: An adjustment is the specific application of forces to facilitate the body's correction of vertebral subluxation. The chiropractic method of correction is by specific adjustments of the spine.
Health: A state of optimal physical, mental and spiritual well being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
Vertebral subluxation: A misalignment of one or more of the 24 vertebra in the spinal column which causes alteration of nerve function and interference to the transmission of mental impulses, resulting in a lessening of the body's innate ability to express its maximum health potential.
Chiropractors do not offer to diagnose or treat any disease or condition other than vertebral subluxation. Regardless of what the disease is called, chiropractors do not offer to treat it. The chiropractor's only practice objective is to eliminate a major interference to the expression of the body's innate wisdom. The only method used is specific adjusting to correct vertebral subluxations.
