- Well, pretty simply I've been having some low back pain.
And also the fact that looking at your videos
and looking at some of your brochures that were there,
one thing that stand out is you had about infertility.
And the thing is that I've seen a urologist,
and they weren't able to see any sperms
when they did the semen analysis.
- Right, so we talked about it before.
You mentioned there's absolutely zero.
- Zero, yes.
- Got it, okay.
- So coming here today, hoping that,
try a different alternative.
Because I've done the medications and everything,
and to this point, no results.
- Got it.
All right, so let's take a look.
So here's the deal.
I understand you came in for low back pain and infertility.
Now, I'm gonna connect the dots how everything
is all connected with the nervous system.
So, the vital thing is
we want to make sure your pelvic foundation
is stable and level.
It's no different from a house foundation.
So if your house foundation is stable,
your structures gonna be stable.
If it's unstable, your structure's gonna be unstable.
So this region over here, we wanna take a closer look at.
'Cause clearly when you did your track,
when you were running track many years ago,
you felt something popped out
That was the instigating point at that time
that caused destabilization of your pelvic foundation.
Now, what's even more interesting and vital,
on the x-ray, we need to evaluate is this
one region right over here.
So, typically, when you tell us that there's
absolutely zero sperm, that tells us the nerves
that connects to your testicles, tip up here
at the first and second lumbar vertebrae nerves.
Meaning this fella over here,
is gonna travel all the way, straight down
to the testicles.
So, if there is a structural abnormality over there,
and it's causing the nerves to be compressed and obstructed,
how do we expect the germ cells in the testicles
to create those sperms?
You can't.
So we're gonna take a look, a closer look,
in your structure to see if you actually have this problem.
If we do correct it and remove the obstruction
to your nerves, just wanna let you know,
it takes a bare minimum three months
for the germ cells in your testicles
to start producing sperm.
So we're gonna definitely do a follow up
three months down the road, see how you're doing.
As we discussed before, the pelvic foundation,
this one over here, pelvis went forward and inwards.
That's what caused that tunnel to collapse a bit.
But before we can address that part,
what I see is we need to address first,
in your sacral foundation, you have rudimentary sacral disc
over here.
We need to correct this first.
That's why you're experiencing that pain and discomfort
on the left side, because of the way the segment
rotated towards this way, putting a lot of pressure
on this side.
So we do need to correct this one first.
And then, we'll address this in the future.
But in addition too, that's what you also see over here,
is second lumbar, this disc over here
is kind of puffy, and also it went backwards.
And the way it's misaligned on here,
it went more towards the left.
And in addition too, see the disc over here?
It's more increased on the right side versus the left.
So it's wedged this way.
So the closest wedge this way,
that's the one we need to take a closer look
see if we need to correct.
Okay, starting with setup a patient.
We're looking for signs of swelling, edema,
or muscle spasms, and we see one right over here.
That looks like the sixth dorsal bones.
Four, five, six, there's the sixth dorsal.
Feeling this little peep over here?
- Yeah
- That looks like that's your second.
Four, three, two, yep, right there.
Hurts right there, right?
That's number two, second lumbar.
You also have quite a bit of swelling
on your left side over here.
Yeah, not too much on the left,
I'm sorry the right, but quite a bit right here
on the left side.
So now I'm gonna check, with most my patients,
check for any abnormal movement.
Your hip swings both ways.
The second sacral segment right over here
is jammed on this side over here,
while the rest of sacrum pivots and moves fine.
The right hip
somewhat fixated.
But I figure this, correcting the second sacral segment
in the future, is gonna show the right hip
that we need to correct in the future.
There it is.
Tender right there?
Right here
More here, huh?
Tender?
- Yep
- Yeah, this is it.
This is what we need to correct.
Little pop.
Drop the belly a little more, little more drop.
Drop right there.
Good
Drop a little more.
Just kind of let this sink in a little more, okay?
Little more.
We can see how big the swelling is right here,
just for his second sacral segment.
Drop the belly even more.
Give it one drop.
There we go, a little more.
- [Patient] Before, I couldn't touch my toes.
I can actually touch them.
- [Chiropractor] Now you can touch your toes, huh?
- Yes, this bending before,
if I bend over, I can never keep the left knee straight,
there's always a slight bending with the knee going down.
But, now I can actually keep the knee back straight
and actually go touch my toe.
- That's great.
So, now we structure corrected that.
In a followup visit, we're gonna see
how your right hip is doing,
and we're also gonna keep an eye on the third lumbar.
And I would recommend a followup with your urologist
six months down the road, see how...
- Any sperm present
- Right, any sperm is being produced or not.
Any other questions?
- No
- All right, we're all set.
Your welcome - Thank you
