Frequently Asked Questions


How do you get a misaligned (subluxated) spine?

An accident or injury at some time in a person’s life causes their spine to misalign. It is not necessarily an injury that you would remember.

Examples of injuries are:

  • The birthing process.*
  • A fall as a child. **
  • Falling off a bicycle.
  • Playing sports.
  • Slipping on the ice.
  • Car accidents.
  • Twisting or popping your neck.
  • Hitting your head.

The list goes on and on. It is estimated that greater than 95% of the adult population has a misaligned spine.
