Chiropractic and Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune condition that affects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). The body is thought to have mistakenly broken down the myelin sheath in the nerve tissue, causing what is called demyelination. The cause of MS is said to be idiopathic, meaning it is unknown. A few recent studies have shown that people who had concussions as teenagers are up to twice as likely to be diagnosed with MS later in life. The more head injuries the children had, the more likely they were to develop MS later in life.

What are the most common causes of Multiple Sclerosis?

MS is described as an autoimmune condition. An autoimmune condition is where the body's immune system mistakes its own healthy tissue and attacks it because it sees it as foreign. Many autoimmune conditions cause inflammation that can affect many parts of the body. In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. Eventually, the condition can cause permanent damage or weakening of the nerves.

How are chiropractic and Multiple Sclerosis related to each other?

After examination of the cerebrospinal fluid of people with MS, a number of proteins (waste substances) can be seen that should not be there. The upper cervical spine and the role of the CSF is an extremely important topic that is not discussed enough. One of the basic tasks of the CSF is to keep the brain buoyant, to nourish the brain and not least to help in the process of removing metabolic waste products. The brain uses an extremely large amount of energy, and as in all other processes in the body, waste substances are then formed. Altering the integrity and function of the upper cervical spine can affect the flow of CSF. More research is needed to understand if and what this relationship can lead to. Regardless, what we see with chiropractic care is an improvement in the flow of CSF, and logically, more waste products can be transported out of the brain.

What do our clients say about us:

Thanks to TOPCHIRO, especially Didrik, I have regained confidence in my body. I was in so much pain because of the prolapse that my everyday life was very limited. After following the careplan I was recommended, the pain in my lower back subsided and the shooting pains disappeared completely. I have my life back, I am eternally grateful. Didrik and Amy you are a TOPteam!

Since starting the careplan, I have had much less pain in my neck and back. I feel better in my body and the migraines have eased. The team are committed and professional, and a visit is always pleasant!

Very often we do not consider our spine and nerve system as a cause for physical and mental stress. Both are actually critical for your health and it's amazing how many more symptoms and pains are being caused by and can be solved by correcting your spine. If there is any place where you should go to do so it's here.

"They are great! Real toppers who stand for professional knowledge!! I came to them with excruciating headaches, neck pain and problems with scoliosis and I could only walk a short distance without excruciating pain. At the hospital I was sent away with the words 'it belongs with having scoliosis and you need to fine tune your muscles' but no good explanation was given how to do it. I have also struggled with many forms of food allergies but now they are all gone. Now you may be thinking how? At TOPCHIRO they explain how our bodies are connected and the importance of a well-functioning spine????. Now I don't suffer from headaches or neck pain and can walk without pain again!! They are lifesavers every single one of them" ❤

After trying absolutely everything, including injecting cortisone into my spine, I was finally pain-free thanks to the professional and, above all, friendly people at TOPCHIRO. Special thanks to Didrik!

The name says it all, super happy with TOPCHIRO! Expert chiropractor Didrik helped me get rid of my neck and shoulder pain, so I feel much better now. Great emphasis is placed on providing correct information. The care plan is tailored. There is an eye for the individual and room for personal wishes. Always a warm and friendly atmosphere in the clinic. It feels like coming home.
