Ever wonder what that scanner is doing as it rolls up someone's spine in our office?

That is our thermal scan, one part of our INSiGHT nervous system exam. Two infrared cameras read the temperature on each side of the spine as they move up your back.

Here is why that matters. Every muscle, organ, gland, and tissue in your body is supplied by a nerve. When there is irritation along a nerve, it creates inflammation, and inflammation creates heat. That is exactly what this scan is picking up.

A temperature difference from one side of the spine to the other is a sign of stress on the nervous system, something you cannot see on an X-ray and usually cannot feel until it has been building for a while.

It is quick, it is painless, and it gives us an objective look at how your nervous system is actually functioning.

Curious what your scan would show? Give us a call at 608-352-7476 or head to centrafamilychiropractic.com to get started.

Married AND business partners... let's see how this goes. 😂 Dr. Nick and Dr. Tara put their marriage to the test with a round of "Guess the Same."

Spoiler: running a practice together doesn't mean you're always on the same page!

This scan tells the whole story.

This patient came to see us after years of dealing with tension headaches. She works a desk job, and a couple times a week by the end of the day it turned into a full blown migraine.

We ran an EMG scan on her neck. The top scan is hers. The bottom is a normal scan. All that red you see is how much tension was in her neck when we took this, and she was just sitting there at rest. Her muscles were literally working overtime just to hold her head up.

That is why by the end of the day those muscles are worn out and tipping her into a headache.

Our goal with care is to get her scan looking like that bottom one. We are correcting the problem, not just treating the symptom.

If headaches or migraines keep showing up in your week, give us a call at 608-352-7476 or head to centrafamilychiropractic.com to schedule your first appointment and see what is really going on.

This scanner sitting on our desk was certified by NASA.

Not a marketing gimmick. The Insight Subluxation Station earned Certified Space Technology recognition from the Space Foundation, in cooperation with NASA, because the technology it's built on was originally designed to measure changes in astronauts' spinal muscles caused by space flight.

We use that same technology on every single patient who walks through our door, from newborns to grandparents.

Here's why. Most people think you'd feel it if your nervous system was under stress. You don't. Just like you don't feel a heart attack coming until the damage is already done, nerve stress doesn't show up as pain until it's been building for a while. These scans let us see it before that happens.

We run three scans. A thermal scan that measures the autonomic nervous system, the part of you that runs digestion, immune function, and organ function without you thinking about it. A surface EMG scan that measures muscle tension and spasm along the spine. And heart rate variability, which gives us a global look at how well your nervous system is adapting to the stress of everyday life.

No needles. No shocks. No radiation. The patient just feels someone touching their spine. We've scanned newborns days old.

If you've ever wondered how we actually know if chiropractic care can help your family, this is it. This is how we find out, and this is how we track that your nervous system is actually changing over time.

60 lbs of pulling on a newborn's head and neck. That's just an average vaginal delivery.

C-sections put even more traction through that same area.

Here's the part nobody connects. That traction happens right at the base of the skull, right where the nerves controlling focus, digestion, and sleep exit the spine.

So years later when a kid can't sit still or focus in school, everyone starts asking about a diagnosis. Almost nobody asks about day one.

This is why we scan every newborn that comes through our doors. We're not looking for what's wrong. We're looking at how her nervous system handled the stress it just went through.

If you have a newborn or you're expecting, get them checked early. The sooner we know how their nervous system is adapting, the easier it is to support.

If your doctor hasn't checked this one thing, you're just masking your headache and migraine symptoms.

That one thing is your upper neck.

The top two bones in your spine sit right next to the nerves and blood flow that feed your head. When that area gets stuck or irritated, it can trigger tension headaches and migraines, and most doctors never even look there. You get handed a prescription instead, something to dull the pain, not something that checks why it's happening in the first place.

At Centra Family Chiropractic we use INSiGHT scanning technology to measure exactly how that part of your nervous system is functioning, not just guess based on where the pain shows up.

If you've been managing headaches for months or years and nothing's actually fixed it, this is probably why.

Give us a call at 608-352-7476 or head to centrafamilychiropractic.com to get checked.

Medications. Injections. Tylenol. Ibuprofen. Round and round.

So many people dealing with headaches and migraines have tried all of it, and at some point they realize something has to change.

At Centra Family Chiropractic, we don't chase the headache. We look at how the nervous system is functioning, because when the nervous system is working the way it should, the whole body responds, including the parts of you dealing with headaches and migraines.

If that sounds like you or somebody in your family, this one is worth the watch.

Give us a call at 608-352-7476 or head to centrafamilychiropractic.com to get your nervous system scanned and find out what's really going on.

Life is simply better with a calm nervous system.

Watch this little one during her check with Dr. Tara. No crying. No fussing. Just calm.

That's what a regulated nervous system looks like in real time. Birth puts a lot of pressure on a tiny body, even when everything goes textbook. When that tension gets checked early, babies settle. They rest easier. They eat, sleep, and grow the way they're built to.

This is what a newborn check actually looks like. Gentle enough that most babies stay exactly this relaxed the whole time.

If you're curious what this could look like for your baby, give us a call at 608-352-7476 or visit centrafamilychiropractic.com.

Most people think chiropractic is about cracking backs and popping joints. It's not — it's about the nervous system.

Every function in your body is controlled by your nervous system. When it's not communicating properly, that's when things start to break down — not just pain, but sleep, immunity, mood, and more.

At Centra Family Chiropractic, we look at what's actually going on underneath the surface. If you've never had your nervous system checked, now's a good time to start: centrafamilychiropractic.com/contact-us/
