Central Integration to Help Chronic Pain and Dysfunction (Part I Updated)

I am repeatedly ask to evaluate and treat patients that have not responded to Chiropractic or Medical Care.  Some have seen as many as 4 MD’s, including Orthopods and Neurologists, 2 DCs with multiple testing’s, imaging, medications, and injections.  These cases and their resistance made me look and relook at Central Integration and combine many tools and techniques from our past to blend all of them to accomplish marked improvement. These past few months I have added treating the cranial nerves as part of the integration procedure.
 
After 80% improvement on one case after just one treatment, the husband, having traveled 3 hours to see us, said, “why don’t you teach other doctors these techniques so people can get help everywhere”. The statement was a compliment but disappointed me. I explained I gave up a very happy life and an extremely productive practice almost 20 years ago to teach full time. He then said why don’t the doctors do what you teach?

All of us take technique classes throughout our practices and then personalize them to us. The problem is many who have seen, have not done. Those that follow the “Six Steps” accurately get incredible results and prosper.  I am asking all who have been exposed to these techniques and philosophies to dedicate themselves to follow the protocol and give the patients what they deserve in health and wellness and what the doctors deserve in a very effective and results achieving system of evaluation and treatment.

Central Integration encompassed into the “Six Steps”:  The human body is basically a receptor-based organism. The basal ganglion, cerebellum, thalamus, and even the cortex, are receptor sensitive. The brain only knows frequency of firing. 70% of the brains function is inhibitory.  Incorrect or insufficient information (sensory input) yields aberrant function. The central integrated state is the correct balance of inhibitory postsynaptic potentials and the excitatory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs & EPSPs). Therefore, a neuron rests or sits if at a (neutral) central integrated state simply processing the signals of excitement and inhibition in this balanced condition.

Picture1

The central integrated state is changed and improved by balancing the excitatory and inhibition potentials, which is often accomplished by increasing afferent or sensory input, with care and a whole person approach.

The joint mechanoreceptors of the spine are tonic receptors that fire continuously due to the constant presence of gravity. An example of other tonic receptors are pain receptors, the joint capsule, muscle spindles and the Ruffini corpuscle. The Bulbous corpuscle or Ruffini ending or Ruffini corpuscle is a slowly adapting mechanoreceptor found in the subcutaneous tissue of humans. It is named after Angelo Ruffini. Dr Marc Harris’s subcutaneous D5W treatment may help balance this Ruffini corpuscle.
These joint mechanoreceptors of the spine and the muscle spindles, along with other tonic receptors send the greatest amount of information to the brain. To have health and wellness and not manifest pain and/or dysfunction, one must have balanced spinal and muscle information in excitement and inhibition.

The information from the joint mechanoreceptors goes through the cerebellum without known communication with it, straight to the thalamus. The muscle spindles fire directly into the cerebellum and then into the thalamus. This integration system also receives information from sight, sound, and the labyrinthine ear. The thalamus then sends the information to the new (neo) cortex. The neocortex then fires or sends information to the brain stem, through the hypothalamus. Look at the pictures included in this article.

Picture2

The brain stem controls all the vital functions that keep us alive, such as heart rate/blood flow, breathing, digestion and hormone regulation. It also controls central integration functions such as balance and control of the involuntary muscles of the neck and back. In addition, it the brain stem has parasympathetic function to inhibit the sympathetic nervous system.

To emphasize, the greatest quantum of information the body receives to keep us healthy and out of pain comes from the muscle spindles, the spinal joint mechanoreceptors, other tonic receptors, eyes and ears in hearing and vibration. It blends and integrates this information even with smell to keep us with optimal health and wellness. To balance the spine and muscle spindles is paramount to wellness, being pain free and having your chronic and potentially hopeless patients respond. The eyes/ears need to see/hear and send the same message the muscle spindles, joint capsules and spinal facets sense and send to the brain and brain stem etc.

Tandem treatment of the midline structures, eyes and ears help facilitate a central integrative state and optimal wellness. Therefore, we use the eyes (Color Chart - Chakra Balance), the brain stem including the cranial nerves, along with integrating what the ears are hearing and feeling in vibration (using the tuning forks). The midline structures relate to the paleo cortex (old brain), which is a part of the limbic system (emotional center). Therefore, emotional stress is being addressed at the same time and treatment expansion is accomplished by using the book FEELINGS BURIED ALIVE NEVER DIE. Smell may also need to be added to the correction. I will demonstrate this procedure at Homecoming 2022. In the three hour advanced treating session, you will see me use this protocol over and over on complicated cases.

Lack of proper body movement, at individual segmental levels and whole-body movement causes faulty neurophysiology. We have known the brain has great control over the body and movement. What I think we have undervalued is the control the body has over the brain when fixation or subluxation yields faulty motion, nerve compression or nerve entrapment. This results in a lack of proper joint movement and inaccurate mechanoreception, yielding imbalance and a non-central integrative state. We also treat fascial restriction in this equation with the percussor. The acupuncture system is imbedded in the fascia and the fascia is involved with all the nervous systems. The fascia surrounds and envelopes the brain, spinal cord, all of the nervous systems and all of the organs.  Robert Fulford, DO, taught the fascia superseded the nervous systems and integrated them together.

If the person becomes tight, in spasms and/or imbalanced in any area, they lose range of motion in that area which affects all other areas of the body. For example, if they lose motion of the anterior-posterior movement of cervical vertebrae, the IPSPs (inhibitory) overrides the EPSPs (excitatory) and pain and dysfunction occur.
