Network Spinal Analysis

Benefits of Care

Research, in conjunction with noted neurobiologists, at the Medical College at the University of California, Irvine studied almost 3,000 people receiving NSA chiropractic care across the USA, Australia, Canada and Puerto Rico. The study found that NSA chiropractic is associated with statistically significant improvement in people’s Health Related Quality of Life. People report sweeping, across the board positive outcomes relative to their: Physical Well-Being, Stress Levels, Emotional and Psychological Well-Being, Life Enjoyment, Lifestyle Changes and Overall Quality of Life. Below are some of the self-reported life improvements from individuals who participated in this monumental research study (rollover each with your mouse).

To the best of our knowledge, this is the only study (in medicine, chiropractic, etc.) that has examined a modality’s effect on quality of life issues across the board, with perhaps also the largest number of subjects in any wellness study ever conducted. It is also unusual for a chiropractic technique to be studied by a medical college. Since this study, the NSA respiratory wave and somatopsychic wave, two clinical features unique to Network Spinal Analysis, have been studied at over 40 universities internationally. NSA chiropractic provides the researchers with reportedly the only reproducible means for observing a system in nature that appears chaotic before it reorganizes to a different level of orderliness. The opportunity to observe and study this phenomenon will inevitably lead to new discoveries in many completely different disciplines.

The research has been used to refine the NSA technique to ensure that the benefits are as comprehensive and meaningful as possible.

This was the first study done on NSA chiropractic and one of the largest wellness studies ever conducted. Over 2800 people were surveyed, covering a comprehensive range of areas, as shown by clicking on the buttons above.
