What does a subluxation do to me: why chiropractic care is so important!
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Subluxations are distortions in your body that interfere with your internal communications.
Doctors of Chiropractic locate and correct subluxations to promote improved health, healing, balance, energy and connection.
Among the ways subluxations damage your health and well-being are the following:
1. Spine and structural distortions. They can express as one leg being shorter than the other; one hip or shoulder not being in line with the other; hips being unbalanced. A distorted body causes weakness, fatigue and overall body malfunction (dis-ease).
2. Nerve interference. Your brain, spinal cord and nerves cannot send information and energy at top efficiency. You may feel pain or feel like you’re in a mental fog or both.
3. Chemical changes. This can cause inflammation of joints, ligaments, discs and bones. It can cause pain, weakness, lack of energy and dis-ease.
4. Muscle stress. This can express as trigger points, pain, soreness, weakness, imbalance and fatigue.
5. Internal organ weakness. Depending on which nerves are affected, your internal organs can be weakened which can result in malfunction, tissue weakness and disease.
Now do you see why it’s so important to get a chiropractic checkup to make sure you are free of subluxations? Why carry them around inside you? Subluxations are like cavities in the teeth – slowly damaging your health. It’s best to locate and correct them early, before they cause serious health problems.

Is the flu shot helpful or harmful?
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Flu shot linked to Alzheimer’s
According to Hugh Fudenberg, M.D., the world's leading immunogeneticist and 13th most quoted biologist of our time (over 850 papers in top peer review journals), if an individual has had five consecutive flu shots his/her chances of getting Alzheimer's disease is ten times higher than if they had one, two or no shots. (4)
Dr. Fudenberg says the brain damage is due to the mercury in many flu shots (and many childhood shots). The gradual mercury buildup in the brain causes cognitive dysfunction. Is that why Alzheimer's is increasing?
Please pass on the above information to all your friends and relatives who may be pressured into getting a flu shot. It doesn’t work and it’s dangerous.

Chiropractic adjustments part of an ADHD treatment plan
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
A 4½-year-old male child with learning disabilities, reduced social interaction and increased sensory stimulation behaviors presented for chiropractic care. The patient was suspected to have attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) along with his diagnosis of sensory processing disorder one-year prior.
The child was adjusted for subluxations and placed on a gluten-free, refined sugar-free, and casein-free diet. In addition, exercises were given to stimulate the patient’s sensory nerve pathways. The child experienced a decrease in outbursts, improved attention span, improved ability to focus and he began to read. (6)

Meet the newest member of the Van Every Family - Laura
Hi! my name is Laura and I am the newest member to the Van Every Family Chiropractic family.
I am a born and rasied Royal Oak-er as is my husband, Mark. We have 2 daugters and a son that attend Oak Ridge Elementary School right around the corner. They are all patients here at Van Every. I love to hear my kids say, "Mom, I think I will feel better after an adjustment."
I have been a patient here since 2006 and am a firm believer in the benefits of chiropractic care as it relates to my mind, body, and spirit. I have experienced relief from headaches, vertigo, and insomnia. The environment at Van Every has only made my experiences with chiropractic care better; the warm and caring staff here is really like no other! I even told myself when I began my visits years back, "Now THIS is the kind of place I would like to work at!"
