The Misalignment

Find out More

When the two vertebrae in our spine, called an Atlas and Axis imbalance can occur. The atlas protects what's below it from pressure while also helping to provide balance for all activities within your body; this makes up about 4 pounds worth of weight that must be held upright when you're standing or walking around! If these top-two segments become misaligned with each other then serious consequences could happen like impinging upon nearby nerves which control muscle movement - leading ultimately toward disability due to lack of functionality because no longer receiving the information needed by muscles fibers.

A misaligned atlas causes immense physical stress through every joint in the body because it cannot support the weight. This puts an unnatural burden on already sensitive nerve endings, which can lead to migraine headaches or other symptoms like tingling hands and difficulty focusing eyesight. A properly aligned axis allows for smooth communication between brain cells thus providing you with peace of mind as well as increased energy levels.
