Common Secondary Conditions – Cause and Types

What’s The Difference Between Structural Correction Chiropractic & Traditional Chiropractic?

Once a Structural Shift is present and disrupting the spinal nerves and spinal cord, it can create many different secondary conditions (AKA symptoms). The reason these are called secondary conditions is because they are a result of the primary structural shift, or the underlying cause. The location of the structural shift and where the nerves are being disrupted will give us an idea about your secondary conditions.
