Dr. Cyriacks is a specialist in locating, and correcting the Vetebral Subluxation Complex (commonly referred to by chiropractors as a subluxation)   In his professional opinion subluxations wreak havoc on the human body causing a chain reaction of dysfunction that often goes unnoticed for months-sometimes years-until symptoms show up.  Correction of the subluxation complex relies on the skill of the chiropractor and the neuroplastic ability of the brain.

A subluxation (Vertebral Subluxation Complex) is a term chiropractors use to describe a biomechanical dysfunction of the spine. This dysfunction usually has corresponding physiological, muscular and neurological components.  Chiropractors assert that subluxations result in a decrease of normal function in our bodies, resulting in a decrease in health.

Our spines have 24 movable bones called vertebrae. These vertebrae stack up one upon another and protect the spinal cord, as well as form the axis of our skeleton.  Like any machine with many moving parts, occasionally one of these parts misaligns or wears out.  This sometimes causes a chain reaction of malfunction and the pathway to dis-ease begins.

Chiropractors focus their efforts on finding and then removing the subluxation of the spine, allowing the body’s innate intelligence (Universal Organization) to flow unblocked through the nervous system.  “Innate” is our body’s in-born ability to be well.  It is the intelligence that organizes the universe as well as our functioning.  Take for instance growth.  No one teaches a human embryo to form into a baby.  No one teaches us how to grow older or taller, and yet we all do it.  If you break your arm, a doctor will reset the bones and put a cast on you, but your body will actually do the healing.  That is what innate intelligence is.  Innate is controlled by your brain, and is communicated to the body through your spinal cord and peripheral nervous system.  When your brain and body lose the ability to communicate a decrease in overall health occurs.

A chiropractic adjustment will correct the vertebral subluxation and begin the process of restoring normal function as well as restored life expression. The optimal expression of life is facilitated by the adjustment.  When we say normal function we are referring to the individual.  Each person is different, and is affected by limitations of matter, as well as individual history of trauma and genetics as well as bone remodeling.  This is one of the main reasons that results can vary from one patient to the next.
