EXERCISE #2 

Prone Spinal Extension 

For Pottenger's Saucer and unequal arm length 

 

Exercise 2 a

A. Lay face down with your hands at your sides and your face straight down. Slowly raise your head upward toward the ceiling, as if you wanted to touch your nose to the ceiling. Your goal is to extend your head slowly, beginning to move the vertebra at the base of the skull and moving down your spine slowly, one vertebra at a time. Keep your shoulders down as long as possible. Continue to raise your head and neck up until you can go no further without your shoulders rising.

Exercise 2 b

 

B. Now slide your hands under your chest, with your fingers pointing at each other. Keep your head extended as far as possible. Using your hands, push yourself up and arch your back. Keep your head as far back as possible. Go slowly from your shoulders downward. Continue until your pubic bone begins to rise from the floor. 

 

Exercise 2 c

 

C. At this point stop and begin to reverse the process, slowly returning to the floor, one vertebra at a time. Your head should remain extended until your hands can be returned to your sides. 

 

D. Begin bringing your neck and face back to the floor. Pause and rest, then repeat the process for a total of three repetitions.

It all started when I was driving and a truck ran a stop sign hitting the drivers side door of my car. I had several broken ribs, a bruised lung, broken clavicle and extensive bruising. I guess it could have been much worse. What I didn’t expect was the pain would go on long after the bruises and bones healed. 

Prescription medication helped during the healing process with pain. But once I went back to work they were way to strong. I thought the neck pain and headaches would eventually go away. But in fact, it got worse with time.

Trying to seek relief, I saw doctor after doctor. I received test after test. That lasted for 4 years! I had, x-rays, EMGs, MRIs. The doctors admitted there was something wrong, but said it shouldn’t be causing all the neck pain, headaches, or inability to turn my head to the left. In the end I was told it was something I’d just have to live with. I thought NO WAY!

Almost 5 ½ years after the accident, I got a flyer from a crusader, disguised as a chiropractor telling me about chiropractic care. I set up an appointment, received a thorough evaluation and he told me he could help. Finally! Someone who knew what to do!

I felt immediate relief after the first treatment! I slept through the night for the first time in years. My headaches were gone by the second treatment. I can now turn my head without any pain. All thanks to Dr. Swolensky.

I came to see Dr. Swolensky after witnessing the amazing results my aunt had in his office. I had no control of my life. I was a ‘tripping zombie’. 
I suffered from severe migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and spent most of the day in bed. Life was really non-existent for me.
 

In just 7 weeks I have gone from 31 different pills to 4. I have 90% less pain. I also lost 20lbs in those 7 weeks.

I am a totally and completely different person. It’s like a night and day difference.
