NCR is a treatment that addresses the structural stability of the entire body via the skull. Since birth, our heads have been compressed and squeezed into less than the optimal shape. What is the optimal, most functional shape of the skull? Smooth and round, free from ridges, saddles, lumps and peaks. Each time we receive a blow to the skull or body, the cranial sutures (the joints which keep your skull together) tighten and put pressure on the brain. In the compartment of the brain, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is supposed to circulate freely, bathing the brain in a life giving fluid that delivers glucose and nutrients to the brain and takes away waste. When there is compression of the skull, the flow of CSF is impaired, and we can experience many symptoms such as decreased learning and cognition, disrupted feeling of well-being and mind fog. As the skull distorts to accommodate an injury, the spine, pelvis, legs and feet are distorted in turn (to accommodate the new shape of the skull) and can produce an array of physical symptoms ranging from mild dysfunction to debilitating pain.
The body's main structural priority is stability, is keeping the body and head upright and the eyes level with the horizon. If the head is even slightly distorted, then the structure of the whole system is compromised, and the spine compensates with a counterbalancing distortion to create a makeshift stability, or a dysfunctional structure which keeps the body and head upright, with the cost of pain and dysfunction: the distortion of the spine, though painful, is more functional and stable to the head than the adjusted position, and the body returns to its compensatory pattern).
Who can benefit from NCR?
Quite simply, anyone can benefit from NCR treatment; I have never seen a spine or skull perfect and without dysfunction, and I’m not sure if anyone else has, either. This means that some amount of treatment could be useful for everybody, even though they may have no presenting complaints.
Conditions and symptoms commonly treated and relieved with NCR:
Breathing and sinus dysfunction, headaches, migraines and head pressure, muscular pain and spasm, scoliosis, ear disorders, vision problems, seizures, orthodontic problems, whiplash, effects from trauma, dyslexia, insomnia, snoring, sleep apnea, tremor and TMJ. NCR also has profound mental and emotional effects including relief from anxiety, depression, phobias, hyperactivity and nervousness. Patients report feeling more happy, relaxed and self-confident after treatment. Creativity is enhanced, thinking is clearer, relationships with self and other improve and learning becomes easier. Concentration, focus, mental and emotional clarity all increase.
The variety and intensity of positive physical, mental and emotional effects from optimizing the body’s structure through NCR are astounding. This demonstrates that the body’s structural integrity is far more important than we normally realize. Together with proper diet, exercise, rest and stress management techniques, good structure is the key to the body, mind, emotion and soul operating at their full potential.
Some other great structural effects of NCR:
This therapy offers great cosmetic improvement without surgery or shots. Physical beauty is enhanced naturally with NCR. The face can become more symmetrical: the eye sockets line up with one another and can become more proportional and pronounced, eyes that look like they are protruding can recede, the eyebrows can become symmetrical; the cheekbones can rise and become even with each other, so you can flaunt beautifully high, shapely cheekbones; broken, crooked or hooked noses can straighten; ears that are offset can line up so that one side of the head does not look higher than the other; bulges, ridges and dips in the forehead may be reduced or eliminated; the mouth may appear more evenly set on the face; faces that appear narrow, pinched or compressed may become fuller as the skull bones are unlocked and return to their optimal position- for this same reason wrinkles may diminish as the face looks more relaxed. In summary, all of the facial features become more balanced and symmetrical, and in this symmetry there is a greater physical beauty achieved. www.ncrmedicine.com
