What is Neurologically Based Chiropractic?

At Absolute Wellness Center Inc, the intent of care in our office is to assist our clients on improving their neurological function. Also, we want to aid you in obtaining ideal neuroplasticity. Does this sound complicated? The nervous system simply can adapt and respond to a stressor and maintain homeostasis and balance. We have powerful tools at our fingertips, and our office has the latest technology that neuroscience has to offer. This means that you will not find another office that offers this technology unless you take a trip to Kansas City or St. Louis. Here are a few things you need to know about neurological chiropractic at the Lake of the Ozarks and how we can help.


The Basics About The Nervous System

We know that there are 3 main systems of the body:

#3 The Passive System:
Consists of bones and joints. They do nothing on their own, so they are never the cause of dysfunction.

#2 The Active System:
Consists of the muscles responsible for actions. They also can't act on their own, so they are never the cause of dysfunction.

#1 The Nervous System:
This is the control system … the central organizing authority. Nothing takes place in our bodies without the Nervous System initiating and approving the process. This is the cause of dysfunction.

In our office, we understand that a nervous system which is displaying Compromised Neural Integrity (CNI) is the cause of all dysfunction. We define CNI as a subluxation. To simplify … Compromised Neural Integrity (CNI) = Subluxation = Reduced Neuroplasticity = Loss of the ability to ideally to adapt and respond.

What is Stress Response?

All living creatures have an awareness of a threat to their existence. Humans have a built-in warning system that alerts them to all levels of threats. Our five senses alert us to danger even when we are totally unaware of it. Bad smells, unusual sounds, and foul tastes are just some of these warning systems. The subconscious is even more sensitive and will often trigger a protection response of which we are unaware of consciously such as an increase in blood pressure, heart rate or respiration.

The nervous system is divided into two main divisions:

  • Para-Sympathetic-keeps everything running smoothly and in balance
  • Sympathetic- responsible for protection and defense and doesn't care about balance, its only purpose is to offer extreme responses to preserve life.


Stress is a threat and even low levels of stress over time can have drastic results in the health of an individual. What many don’t understand is that “STRESS” is a response to a “STRESSOR” and throughout a lifetime we will always be confronting stressors.

The challenge lies in several areas: the intensity of the stressor, the duration of the stressor, the level of previous damage done to the stress response system and the ability of the system to return to a normal balanced state.

As current medical research is now claiming that 95% of all Illnesses are the result of a lack of the body’s ability to reestablish normal balance, it only makes sense that we learn what must be done to bring the body back into correct neurological responses.

As it is critical for good health to have a nervous system that can adapt to stressors and recover correctly … it only makes sense that we have a method which can measure these action/reactions. It is much easier to keep the system in balance than to attempt to correct it once it has already been damaged.


The Problem and the Solution

As with all things in the body, the solution is never as easy as the wave of a wand. It takes a variety of practices to bring you back into the balance that you seek. This is why Absolute Wellness Center studies the neurological responses. We take your healing journey seriously, and we use a variety of techniques and therapies to aid your body in connecting back to the nervous system. If you are intrigued by this introduction, we would love to talk with you further!

Our new client procedures are simple, but also not a quick and easy process. We want to meet with you, perform some stress tests, talk to you about your goals, and even take some x-rays. Only after we have performed these actions can we then make a game plan and begin your adjustments.
