☆☆☆ ORGANS AND THE SPINE ☆☆☆
(eg Back problems causing colic and guts causing back problems)
A great image to show how the guts (and other organs) as well as blood supply are so strongly related to the spinal cord and the vertebrae.
It is this neurological connection that makes the organs such an important aspect to consider during any treatment process.
Not considering their role in the reduction in mobility of the body results in a reduced quality of treatment. This is because a large factor has been overlooked.
The digestive system, the reproductive system, the urinary system and respiratory system all must be included within the treatment thought process.
In this image it shows the relationship between the spine, the spinal cord and intestine plus it's blood supply.
ANY changes to the mobility of the spine can increase the risk of digestive disturbances including colic....
It also goes the other way in that ANY problems with the gut can reduce mobility of the spine...
All food for thought...
NB I found this image in the depths of my phone. I have no idea where it came from...
