Montel Williams was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis which is a spinal cord disease. There are spaces between each vertebra allowing nerves, which are extensions of the spinal cord, to supply and connect every part of the human body. Thus, the nervous system can be likened to a major super highway.
Much of the problem associated with spinal misalignment can be associated with the atlas vertebra, the top cervical bone in the neck. This one bone can effect the alignment of the entire spine. The atlas needs to hold up the human head which weighs 9-17 pounds. Remember your Greek mythology, Atlas, the figure in Greek mythology who carried the world on his shoulders.
When a patient comes into the Prather Wellness Center, an extensive evaluation with a complete history is performed on the first visit. The exam also includes orthopedic/neurologic and postural assessment of imbalances in the spine. Very precise x-rays are taken which show us exactly how the atlas is displaced. We use a highly advanced instrument called the Atlas Orthogonal instrument that is able to accurately re-position the atlas vertebra. The procedure is non-invasive and gentle.
We have so many stories like Montel’s here at the Prather Wellness Center. We have seen people who have suffered from headaches over 15 years who have found relief through this type of adjusting.
Multiple Sclerosis patients who were told there was nothing more they can do have regained their motor skills, loss of numbness and pain and are able to return to a normal life. This care has helped numerous people regain their lives.
