The Chiropractic Assistant’s Corner with Aida

Hi everyone, it’s Aida

By now you should all know who I am. I have been working with Dr. Rubinstein behind the front desk for 18 months with Mimi.  As you all know, we are reaching out now with better content to keep you informed about all that chiropractic can offer you.  Most folks use chiropractic for back aches and neck aches but if that is all you use chiropractic for, you are only getting about 10% of what chiropractic has to offer.

Because chiropractic deals with the nerve system and sensing pain and moving muscles is only 10 % of what the nerve system does. That is why I want to share my story.

I’m going to start by sharing something personal.  My spouse and I are together for 15 years now, for the last 10 years we were trying to have a baby. When I started working with 57th Street Chiropractic in July 2013, I didn’t know anything about chiropractic or the benefit of being under chiropractic care. As part of my compensation here, I got my spine checked and started getting adjusted weekly after my first day on the job.  So that being said, the week of October 6, 2013 – only two months after my first adjustment, I found out I was five weeks pregnant. I truly believe the chiropractic was a big factor in me becoming a mother. And now with everything that I’ve learned in the office, I learned that my nerve system controls everything in my body even my reproductive health and  once the pressure on my nerves (subluxation) was gone, everything just functioned properly.  I can truly say I know why everyone should see a chiropractor.

My son was born on June 1, 2014 at 12:32 am and Dr. Gregg was in the hospital that day about six hours later giving my son his first adjustment.  From what I have learned in chiropractic, the first adjustment on a newborn is vital. That is when everyone has the potential for their first subluxation. Remember a subluxation is a misalignment of one or more bone in the spine that pinches or irritation nerve root that can cause mis- communication between brain & body (organs, tissue and cells). Just think how a baby is delivered nowadays-  c-section, epidurals, forceps and a vacuum extractor. All of this can cause a lot of stress on the baby’s neck and also think how much force they use to pull out the baby.

My son is now 9 months and rolls all around on my carpet and bumps into my furniture and is also starting to pull himself up and fall back down. Can you imagine all the strain and stress that he puts on his little body that can cause subluxation?  This is the reason why every child should see a chiropractor.

To this day, my son comes to the office every two weeks to get adjusted.  I want my son to be as healthy as possible.  Knowing that his nervous system is working at 100% and he is subluxation free, keeps me sure that his body and mind connection will do what it is supposed to do, Keep him healthy and strong!
