What are Secondary Conditions?
Secondary Conditions alert you that there is something abnormal with your body and it needs to be corrected. They are the results of abnormal structure of the spine, like rotated vertebrae “twisting spine” and lateral curves “scoliosis”, or even anterior head syndrome “text neck”, which all create foundation problems with your spine and body.
Spinal foundation problems are known as a Primary Condition. A Primary Condition is tied to a Secondary Condition (symptoms) that patients often present with at our office.
Once a structural shift (abnormal alignment) is present and disrupting the spinal nerves and spinal cord, it can create many different secondary conditions or 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.
Some of these Secondary Conditions include:
- ADD/ADHD
- Arm Pain (Upper & Lower)
- Asymmetry (Ex: low Shoulder)
- Blood Pressure (High and Low)
