Network Spinal Analysis (NSA) evolved from the chiropractic profession and has become one of the most sought after methods of healing and transformation in the 21st century. NSA incorporates advanced quantum physics principles and a whole body approach to healing. It was developed in 1985 by Dr. Donald Epstein, D.C., a Colorado based chiropractor.

Along with other great visionaries in the human consciousness movement including Anthony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, M.D., and Candace B. Pert, Ph.D., Dr. Epstein is waking humanity from a long and deep sleep to experience its greatest potential. There are approximately 400 chiropractors worldwide that have trained with Dr. Epstein and are making NSA available to the public.

NSA treatments (Spinal EntrainmentsT) last approximately 20 minutes, are done fully clothed, and do not consist of "cracking" or forcing the spine, neck or back in any way. The initial treatments (Level 1) are done while laying face down on a chiropractic table and, in the more advanced Levels 2 and 3, lying sideways, on one's back or sitting.

What Are Spinal Entrainments?
NSA is applied to the body trough a series of gentle contacts ("Spinal EntrainmentsT") along "Spinal GatewaysT", areas of the spine ranging from the bottom of the skull to the tailbone. The Spinal Gateways, discovered by Dr. Epstein, lead to the frontal cortex (front portion) of the brain. The Spinal Entrainments, through the Spinal Gateways "awaken" the brain's frontal cortex resulting in profound global changes in our bodies.

The meaning of "entrainment" is to bring the different parts of a system into harmony with each other. In nature, the process of entrainment is a natural phenomenon that gives different species the advantage of survival over others that are not "entrained" or cannot adapt to their environment.

Smart Fish
A school of fish has a greater chance of survival in the open sea than one single fish. When a predator sends its sonar to scout for food, the school of fish consisting of hundreds or thousands of fish will give the appearance of being a "huge" fish and the predator may think twice about having it for dinner. However, a single fish will not be a threat and be gobbled up without a second thought!

You have also seen flocks of birds fly in a "V" formation. Flying this way creates a "slip stream" effect which lowers air resistance and makes it easier for the group of birds to fly long distances because they don't have to expand as much energy in the case they were flying solo.

Getting Personal
Your body has many systems and parts working all at once to help you function normally as a whole and enhance your ability to thrive in this world. Some of these systems include your immune, skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, nervous, respiratory, lymphatic, glandular, reproductive, and digestive systems. Unless all of these systems work in unison ("entrained" to each other), your ability to survive and thrive in this world and adapt to change and stress will be seriously impaired!

You are also made up of your emotional, mental and spiritual aspects which are not physical in nature, but make up the most significant part of the equation that impacts your health and life. Any imbalance in this trio will manifest as an imbalance in your body.

Does Your Brain Turn You "On" or "Off"?
The frontal cortex of your brain is responsible for the "blueprint" that creates the patterns for physical healing and regeneration, mental and emotional behavior, and spiritual awareness and connection. In short, this is the higher thinking part of the brain that determines our evolution as human beings. It also functions as the switch that turns us "on" to life and keeps us healthy, young and evolving in a positive direction, or "off" and puts us to sleep, in defense, keeps us in a state of fear, and numb to the world and to the beauty of life.

How Past Events Affect Us
Unfortunately, past events in our lives that were stressful and traumatic (from physical, mental, emotional or chemical sources) create a pattern of "defense" or "armoring" in the frontal cortex. The frontal cortex shuts down the normal communication link to our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual parts that make up who we are. This broken link disrupts the "blueprint" that keeps all of the different aspects (or parts) of ourselves in communication and in a healthy and vibrant state, affecting our body's ability to heal, regenerate and function normally.

Subluxations.Short Circuits In Your Spine
The "emotional charge" associated with stressful events has to be sent somewhere to be dealt with at a later time when it was safer for you to experience it. Usually the emotional charge ends up in your spine. It's no surprise that about 80% of the population has back problems!

One condition that results as this "charged up and unresolved" energy is sent to your spine is called "Spinal Subluxation". It is created as thousands of muscle fibers attached to your spinal column contract and shorten, creating a spasm. The muscles pull on your spinal bones (vertebrae) that are aligned on top of one another and shift them out of alignment. The spinal nerves that branch out from your spinal cord and exit through your vertebrae en route to your body, get "kinked" and the messages that are being relayed from your brain to your body and from your body to your brain get short-circuited. During this process, your spinal cord also becomes abnormally "stretched" and affects the delicate tissues surrounding it.

When this happens, communication is altered and your body's systems fail to work properly. It is similar to a short circuit in your house that was created by overwhelming the electrical system. The power shuts off and leaves you in the dark, literally! The presence of spinal subluxations in your body is an indicator that you are "locked" in a pattern of stress and defense.

Hide And Go Seek
Although your brain has served to protect you in the past from system overload, resulting in spinal subluxations, it quite often forgets where it put this energy when it disconnected you from it. Since the brain can't find the unresolved traumatic charge it hid away, its accumulation without resolution manifests as long standing chronic conditions, pain, illness, and disease. You find yourself constantly wondering how your condition got so bad!

"But I Don't Have Stress In My Life"
It is typical that you are doing something totally unrelated to the original trauma when you encounter a stressful situation that takes you over the edge. You feel it physically, mentally or emotionally. It could be as simple as picking up a pencil from the floor or sitting at the computer for a few hours that causes your neck or back to "lock up." It may be a disagreement with your significant other that sets you off into an emotional roller coaster. Either way, a few minutes, hours, or days later you can't move or function from the pain and distress! This is the time when most people turn to medications or other types of interventions to "fix it" or numb the pain. Although taking medications may help save lives in extreme cases, most often they are not needed and make your problem worse.

Healing Waves
Two unique types of healing waves are generated in the body in individuals receiving NSA: A Respiratory WaveT consisting of a spontaneous deep breathing pattern that releases tension and relaxes a person. A Somatopsychic WaveT which generates undulating movements up and down the spine. Research at the University of California Irvine School of Medicine indicated this wave phenomenon is associated with a dramatic increase in health, well -being, and vitality.

How Does NSA Help?
Spinal Entrainments help to break old negative patterns very gently that have been keeping you "imprisoned" in your own body suffering with physical, mental or emotional pain, and resets the "blueprint" in your brain that became faulty from system overload. As the "blueprint" is reset and your brain finds the emotional charge that was hidden away, spinal subluxations are released from your body, setting you free to experience optimum health, youth, vitality, greater connection to yourself and improved quality of life. In addition, NSA teaches the frontal cortex of your brain to "re-connect" every one of your parts and systems and to function as a whole, thus initiating the creation of new strategies that allow you to adapt to change and to life's stressful events better than you have ever experienced before. YOU get to be in charge!

Through Your Nervous System, you perceive the world, adapt to stress, coordinate all body parts and functions, express emotion and create your conscious reality.

STRESS disrupts the normal function of your nervous system.

RESULTING in loss of communication between your body's systems.

SYMPTOMS are warning signals alerting you that interference in your nervous system is occurring.

 


NSA removes this interference with a gentle, non-invasive treatment called an “Spinal EntrainmentT

 


INCREASING your body's healing ability, vitality, and health -- without drugs or surgery.
