T. B. M.What is T.B.M?
T.B.M. (Total Body Modification) is a technique that is used to find the organ or area of the body that is stressed, determine why it is stressed and correct the problem by restoring balance to the nervous system.
In other words, while basic Chiropriactic is used to correct the Structure and influence the function, T. B. M. corrects the Functional Physiology (how the body works) which in turn, influences structure. Both are essential to optimum health.
In the early days of Chriopractic, the "old time Chiropractor" was not restricted or confused by "scientific proof" of what they were able to do. These old masters found a problem and corrected it, thereby, building the reputation of Chiropractic with their main philosophy being that the power that made the body, could correct the body.
T.B.M. has taken that philosophy and explored the possiblities inherent in the human body of self-regeneration. T.B.M. has demonstrated that if the right thing is done to the body at the right time and the right way, wonders can happen. By taking the techniques of the old Chriopractic master and combining them with modern technology, T.B.M. has been able to duplicate the corrections and restore health as the old masters were able to do.
How Does T.B.M Work?
The nervous system is composed of the Central Nervous System, which runs the voluntary function or movements of the Automnomic Nervous System which runs the involuntary functions of the body, such as heart beat, digestion, etc. Each of these systems are further divided into Sensory and Motor Fibers.
The brain is the primary control for both branches of the nervous system. Sensory Fiber carry messages to the brain where they are processed, like a computer, and the brain, in turn, tells the body what to do.
Research has proven that under sufficient stress, from any source , the neurons in the brain centers which are controlling the stressed organ or body part essentially depolarize. This is like blowing a fuse on an electric circuit. The message gets to the brain but fails to return. The result is that the brain (computer) loses effective control over the afflicted organ or body part. This leaves the organ or body part running out of control.
Using tried and tested reflex points and muscle testing, the T. B. M. preactitioner can find the problem. The practitioner will then stimulate a specific area or areas of the spine in a specific manner in an attempt to stimulate the neurones in the brain to repolarize(fix the fuse) and allow the brain to regain control of the body. Since a well-functioning nervous system is a major requirement for health, it follows that T.B.M. can have a part to play in almost any problem and uncover and correct the roadblocks to recovery.
