When this happens, it frequently irritates your nerves, sending pain and injury signals to your brain. These cause your brain to go into a protective state of “fight or flight.” So spinal mis-alignments (called subluxations) not only cause pain, but can also stimulate a stressful state in your nervous system. The spine is very sensitive to these mis-alignments.
That’s why spinal misalignments can cause us to think irrationally, worry too much, become anxious, negatively affect your energy, become moody, or even feel low. Even after your pain is gone, the nerve signals can still stimulate your brain to stay in this stressful state for years and years until the misalignment is fixed.
