Zone Technique Healing
Zone Technique in Center City Philadelphia: In 1931, Dr. Thurman Fleet founded a unique and powerful chiropractic technique known as Zone Therapy. Through his research, Dr. Fleet noted that there are six “zones” in the body and that each zone correlates with a specific brain center, an area in the brain that regulates and controls the specific zone.
6 Zones of the Body
- Glandular
- Eliminative
- Nervous
- Digestive
- Muscular
- Circulatory
What is important to note is that every cell in your body, every system in your body, is under the influence of one or more zones. A great example is your intestinal tract. It is easy to see that this system is directed by the digestive zone (break down and assimilate foods) and the eliminative zone (removal of waste and toxins). But this system is also directed by the muscular zone (muscular contraction within the intestines), the nervous zone (coordination of all processes), glandular zone (proper enzymes for digestion) and circulatory zone (uptake of nutrients, vitamins and minerals for optimal body health).
Dr. Fleet noted that when there was an “imbalance” or “disruption” in the communication between brain centers and the corresponding zones, dysfunction was the result. This imbalance could result in conditions such as weight loss resistance (glandular), constipation (elimination), fatigue and fibromyalgia (nervous), poor digestion and bloating (digestive), neck, back, and knee pain (muscular), and high blood pressure (circulatory). This is just a small list of examples as to what can happen when your “zones” are imbalanced.
By careful analysis of zone specific reflex points, Dr. Fleet was able to determine which zone(s) were out of balance and utilizing chiropractic adjustments, re-balance the zone and restore health and well-being to his patients. This is powerful and worth repeating….adjustments performed to specific areas of the spine will allow proper communication to be reestablished between the brain and the body.
Dr. Dunlap has studied and applied The Zone Technique to his patients with astounding results, including patients with long-term history of regular chiropractic adjustments. Patients now experience the results of all 6 zones working in perfect harmony, and soon realize that chiropractic care expands much further than simple pain management. The Zone Technique allows for both manual and low force adjustments to achieve the necessary results, accommodating the comfort level of all patients. It is an efficient approach to many health issues as outlined below:
