Secondary Conditions - Symptoms of Larger Underlying Factors
Secondary conditions, in the chiropractic world, are surface symptoms or feelings that your body produces to help signal to your brain that an unwanted structural shift has taken place. A structural shift could cause a myriad of symptoms that could easily fool you by manifesting themselves in a place completely foreign to the source of structural shift. For instance, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome may have more to do with your central nervous system than your hands. Because these secondary conditions are the result of structural shifts that may have been at work for many months or years, they can intensify the need for pain relief that always feels a little out of reach. A chronic, nagging headache can slowly intensify until it becomes a throbbing emergency. You could eventually undergo surgery, have x-rays taken, get brain scans performed, or be forced to endure years of pain medication, simply because you had a structural shift.
Structural Shifts Can Cause Chronic Pain
An extreme example of secondary conditions resulting in recurring pain is when a patient comes in with one or both hands going numb. Most folks never stop to realize that your sense of touch is controlled by small nerve endings that connect from the hand, up through the arm, and across the shoulders. Most victims of this pain also don’t realize these nerve runways connect to their primary nerve conduit center in the neck. If this particular nerve strand is pinched or restricted at any point, then your hands or fingers could consistently go numb. While the numbness is not always a long-lasting, harmful issue, restriction of your primary nerve conduit could result in even more problems. One deeper issue could be that this same nerve conduit controls your brain’s signals to your thyroid, so restriction could cause thyroid malfunction.
Structural Care
One of the core philosophies of chiropractic care is that your body is constantly seeking a natural balance.
Auto Accidents
The jarring effects of car accidents can cause major pain and discomfort, as well as many long term structural issues.
Sports Injuries
More and more athletes are discovering the virtues of consistent chiropractic care to actually improve their athletic performance

Just like the engine light in your car, your nerve conduit areas function as your body’s alert system.
