If you can find and fix the misalignments that
the body cannot fix by itself, the compensations will not
have anything to compensate for and will disappear. The pressure
on the areas that have not healed or that have degenerated
under the constant abnormal pressure created by the compensations
will also disappear. When the pressure comes off the first
result is the pain lessens and becomes soreness. This often
happens almost immediately. When the pressure has been off
for long enough for the swelling to go down the pain then
stops and healing can begin in earnest. As the misalignments
it cannot self-correct are realigned and the body fixes the
compensations you see the body literally unwind or untwist
backward though its old injuries. Eventually the body will
be straight and untwisted.
If that seems too simple to describe what is happening with
many people, it is not. The process can seem to be complicated
because there is more than one bone or set of bones misaligned.
Undoing each twist or set of twists takes time and creates
its own set of feelings (symptoms). There is an old thing
in natural healing called “Retracing”. Retracing
means that the body retraces or goes backwards through its
old injuries on the way to getting well again.
Retracing is does happen but not quite in the way people
think. If you get injured 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 you do not go backwards
through the injuries 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
What happens if your doctor really improves your body mechanics
– which is no small consideration because some methods
of structural treatment just shift things around and do not
really improve the body's ability to function. Other methods
can actually make you worse mechanically but you feel better
because the method shifts the pressure off the area damaged
on to something else -- which will eventually become damaged
and make you even worse.
What happens if your doctor really improves your body’s
mechanical ability to function and hold itself upright as
Advanced BioStructural Correction™ does, is that your
body unwinds/untwists/retraces backward through correcting
the injury causing the most mechanical stress in your body
at the time of the correction.
The first thing the body corrects is not the last injury
you had but the one causing the most mechanical stress on
your body at the time you first start getting realigned. It
does not matter whether the injury causing the most mechanical
stress is the first injury your body had, the last injury
or one of the many in between. Thing causing the most mechanical
stress on the body at the time it is first improved is the
thing that the body starts to unwind/untwist or retrace backward
through first.
The way unwinding an old injury (retracing) works to correct
an old injury is that the body literally unwinds or untwists
backward through the injury. This means the body must physically
untwist through its compensations and literally get the injured
area of the body to the position it was in when injured. Once
the body has untwisted itself so the part injured is in the
position it was in when it was injured, the doctor can then
correct its alignment.
This means that trying to force the body into the correct
position does not work. It must unwind or untwist its injuries.
Trying to force the body into a position at best just covers
up old twists. Most of the time it just creates new compensations
on top of the old ones.
Most important is that trying to force the body into position
by adjusting it into place usually does not consider all the
things the body must unwind to correct what seems to be one
little thing. As a result, forcing something into place leaves
sets of misalignments and their compensations even more twisted.
