Major Adjustment
It is maintained by most authorities that this nervousness is inherited, but it has been demonstrated clinically by Chiropractic that results are readily obtained by chiropractic adjustments. It is reasonable to assume that there are environmental conditions which might produce nervousness even in the small infant, but it is also recognized that if the child is normal he soon becomes accustomed to the peculiarities of the environment and pays little or no attention to them. Subluxations in the cervical region, usually atlas or axis, are found in these children. These subluxations may produce sufficient cord pressure to cause such symptoms as usually manifest themselves in malnutrition as so-called nervous indigestion and other symptoms which would indicate constitutional disorders. A very careful analysis reveals that the nervousness in some of these cases is adaptative to some other incoördination. If the nervousness is direct the major adjustment will be Up.C. with a possible combination of C.P. and K.P. If the nervousness is adaptative, then a very careful analysis must be made to determine the incoördination to which it is adaptative. The major then will be determined by the location and the family involved.
