What is a segmental shift

To understand abnormal you must first understand what is considered normal. In healthcare, there are established normal values for everything.Standards for normal blood pressure, normal cholesterol and normal vision are accepted, even so, everyone is not expected to be perfect. At Platinum Chiropractic, we identify a primary condition called Segmental Shift, which a deviation of the spine from normal range.

At Platinum Chiropractic, we focus on optimal structure and while no one is structural perfect there is a normal accepted range. We are looking for notable three-dimensional shifts of the spine outside of normal. When structural shifts occur, the body compensates, which can manifest in a variety of Secondary Conditions, commonly known as “symptoms”.
