The Gonstead Technique: A Foundation for Better Health

The Gonstead Technique begins with a basic biomechanical principle of physics. Every engineer, architect, builder, and carpenter knows the importance of a proper foundation in constructing a building, for this ensures durability and long life. Any slight change or shift in the foundation can cause a great amount of deviation in the top part of the structure and, perhaps, ultimately, its collapse. The body's foundation is formed by the pelvic girdle. When this bony structure consisting of hip bones and the lower bones of the back is level, there will be maximum balance and stability in the spinal column. When the pelvic girdle or any of the vertebrae (bones making up the spinal column) become tilted or rotated out of their proper position, dramatic changes may occur in the body. These misalignments can cause pressure on the discs that separate the vertebrae. (The condition of the disc is the key to the patient's health problem in many cases.) Vertebra can become misaligned either from the cumulative effects of several minor episodes or from a single accident. Nature frequently is able to cope with these jolts to the spinal column without assistance. Sometimes, though, vertebrae tilted or rotated out of their normal position can be too much for nature to deal with effectively.
