This one isn't for you, it was for me. You can listen if you'd like, but there will be no research. I recommend not playing it around your kids.
RIP Matthew, 1/26/93-11/19/20
Autonomic Nervous System activity is a MESS with chronic pain and Fibro patients. The Department of Psychology at the University of Jaen decided to use the very same tests YOU have in YOUR office to view just how ADAPTABILITY is decreased in these patients. And... the results are 100% congruent in what we see and improve in chiropractic offices around the world.
"Reduced activity, reactivity and functionality of the sympathetic nervous system in fibromyalgia: An electrodermal study"
Prenatal and Early Life stress impacts --> Immune System --> Mental Health?
This is a mechanism we haven't explored before.
In this episode, we break down normal central nervous system immune function and physiology and how this article, not written by chiropractors, completely justifies EVERYTHING we talk about. The 3 T's. You don't grow out of something, you grow into something else. SIck kids = sick adults, healthy kids = healthy adults.
"Enduring neuroimmunological consequences of developmental experiences: From vulnerability to resilience"
Poor Plumbing = Poor Health. If you adjust kids (and I mean, you should) you know this is true.
So I was pretty excited when I read an article out of Taiwan breaking down the 2x risk of allergic rhinitis for individuals diagnosed with constipation. If they can't clear out, their immune system will suffer.
And sure, some of the docs around us will be giddy to sell their supplements and probiotics -- but let's dive deep on the VAGUS and stick to subluxation neurology for a sec.
This episode is a bit different - instead of delivering content, I am asking for your help in finding the next associate chiropractor for my practice at the Jersey Shore!

Chiropractors are constantly talking about how "birth trauma" can affect the entire trajectory of our health.
It SEEMS that with additional intervention at birth, more trauma, and more neonatal distress is present.
But is what SEEMS true... REALLY TRUE?
That's the question -- and in this episode, Dr. Anthony Pellegrino reviews research that will give us an answer.

Yes, 2 + 2 = 4.
But why?
Why would we be passionate about that answer?
Are there those out there that don't agree?
How does that affect our practice and chiropractic research?
These are the questions -- this episode has the answers.
If you serve kids, chances are you serve kids with 'developmental delays.'

In this week's episode of the Chiropractic Research Breakdown, Dr. Anthony Pellegrino dives deep on how upper cervical care can affect individual suffering from fibromyalgia.
The research compared to exercise, CBT, and education alone versus all that with upper cervical care and found something really interesting. After 12 weeks, both groups saw improvement, but at one-year follow-up, only the chiropractic groups results held!

Special AMPED conference special:
chiroedgemedia.com/amped
In this week's episode, Dr. Pellegrino breaks down 3 case studies.
-One on seizures from the Journal of Pediatric, Maternal, and Family Health
-One on Bedwetting from the Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics
(this was good -- but I wish we could take focus off of the specific levels of nerves and their innervations i.e. sacral subluxation causes bedwetting. while this may be scientifically sound in some cases I don't feel as though it is philosophically sound)
-And on one "Neck-tongue syndrome" from the British Medical Journal --> published out of Hong Kong. This was... interesting.

Dr. Anthony breaks down new research from Medical Science Monitor on the function of the Vagus Nerve in epilepsy and how it relates to principled chiropractic.
Key takeaways:
-
First line of treatment for epilepsy = drugs with a <60% efficacy rate and 25% refractory rate (cases getting worse)
-
MD's looking to stimulate PNS and research shows this relates to anxiety, depression, frequency, intensity, sleep, and quality of life in epilepsy patients
-
This is an opportunity for chiropractors.

Is there a difference between "adjustment" and "spinal manipulation?" How about "subluxation" and "joint dysfunction?" Should you even care?
