If we can fix one cell we can fix them all. Cells need oxygen to raise the energy of the cell. Research shows the protein rotates like an electric motor!

V/A-ATPase is a rotary molecular motor protein that produces ATP through the rotation of its central rotor. The soluble part of this protein, the V1 domain, rotates upon ATP hydrolysis. However, the mechanism by which ATP hydrolysis in the V1 domain couples with the mechanical....

NEW CONCUSSION PAPER RECOMMENDS NON-DRUG TREATMENT OF PERSISTENT SYMPTOMS. There is increasing interest in the role of chiropractic in the care of patients with persistent (>4w) post-concussion symptoms (mild traumatic brain injury or mTBI). Studies indicate that up to 34% to 44% of patients with concussion or mTBI experience symptoms at 3 to 6 months after injury, and between 5% and 20% experience symptoms at 12 months after injury

The outcomes of a systematic review looking into the effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical resulted in recommendations being made for a range of interventions, including graded physical exercise, vestibular rehabilitation and manual treatments of the spine.

The review, published in JAMA Network Open [1], which included 19 randomized controlled trial involving 2007 subjects used established methods to arrive at recommendations for care.

The Danish research team involved researcher and chiropractor Professor Jan Hartvigsen of the University of Southern Denmark and the Chiropractic Knowledge Hub.

Are post maneuver patient restrictions after treatment of BPPV necessary?

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo, resulting from the migration of otoconia into the semicircular canals. One of the common treatment methods used for BPPV includes the use of repositioning maneuvers to return the otoconia to the utricle. Following treatment, most patients are provided with a variety of activity restrictions to prevent reoccurrence, but are these restrictions really needed to have a successful treatment?

The results of this study indicated that post maneuver restrictions do not improve treatment efficacy and are likely not needed after treatment.
