Spinal Adjustments can INFLUENCE brain Activity in patients with symptomatic disc herniations


Lumbar Disc Herniation is one of the leading causes of low back pain


It presents in my clinic as pain, reflex loss and muscle weakness


Chiropractic Spinal manipulative therapy can relieve pain and can promote internal and external stabilisation of the LUMBAR spine


This recent study calculated the amplitude of low frequency fluctuations (ALFF)and fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuations

(ALFF is used to detect the regional intensity of spontaneous fluctuations)


They found that altered regional patterns in spontaneous neural activity in patients with lumbar disc herniation


They found an increase in the right lingual gyro and increased in Left cerebellum Crus


The right lingual gurus may be involved in the perception and recognition of familiar landmarks
