Basically every muscle in my neck and back is extremely tense, tight, and knotted

     Aw, man!  I just had the best sleep of my life, which I didn’t expect since it is the night before the biggest meeting of my career.  I wonder…what time is it? OH SNAP!!!  I OVERSLEPT!!!!  I only have an hour to get dressed and drive across town.  I quickly turn into Usain Bolt as I dash around my house, hurdling over obstacles, scrambling to put on my hose, while painting my lips with rouge. I sweep all my research that  I prepared the night before into my bag with one swoop while simultaneously reaching for my keys and putting on my heels.  I sprint out the door, unlock the car and dive behind the wheel.  I catch a glance at the clock in the car and realize I have 20 minutes to make a 30 minute drive to the office.  My wheels spin as I back out of the drive way and I believe I can actually see the tire marks on the road through my rear-view mirror as I speed down the road.  I pray to God there are no cops on the road staking out for potential speedsters.  Luckily, I am able to avoid the blue flashing lights as I pull on to the highway where my speeding will be masked by others trying out for the Indy 500 as they try to make it before all their hard work is met by a flash of “pink” falling from their bosses hands.  While merging onto the highway, a little sigh of relief comes over me as I realize there is a possibility to make it to my meeting on time-- until I see IT.  The sight of it causes my heart to sink into the floor boards as the feeling of doom creeps all over my goose bump-ridden body. It’s a TRAFFIC JAM!!!  Cars lined up as far I as my teary eyes can see.  I am going to miss the meeting that had all the potential in the world to change my life for the better—a meeting that I worked so hard for which to be prepared, and a meeting that I am going to miss because something is blocking the flow of traffic and I am STUCK!

            We have all been in situations like the one described above--running late for an important meeting, test, appointment to be slowed down or stopped dead in our tracks because of a traffic jam. What if I told on you the same traffic jams can happen in your body. Your brain is rushing to send a message somewhere in your body--only to be stopped by a subluxation.  A subluxation???  What is a subluxation?  The only difference between the traffic jam that always occurs at the most inconvenient time and a subluxation is” location”.  A subluxation is an interference of nerve flow between the brain and the rest of the body.  A subluxation occurs when one or more vertebra of your spine misalign creating pressure on a nerve--decreasing the function of that nerve.  Just like with a traffic jam, signals will travel at a decreased speed until the cause of the jam is removed.  The only way to have the jams or subluxation removed in your body is by making an appointment with a Chiropractor.  A Chiropractor is trained to examine your spine in order to locate, analyze and correct your vertebral subluxations.  Is your body receiving its messages on time?  Or are your messages still sitting in traffic waiting to reach its destination?
