Benefits of the Extended Fulcrum - December 2021 Case 2
Below is a case from earlier in the spring of 2021. His complaints and symptoms are resolved except for mild discomfort on digital palpating of L4, L5 levels which have disc pathology confirmed be MRI.
By most doctor standards this case is resolved. However, if you look at his first X-ray you will note the C3 and C4 anterior bodies not touching the anterior lordosis line and thus not contributing to the global lordosis. This would be identified by X-ray marking systems in various structural correction chiropractic offices.
The addition of the extended fulcrum attachment to the Cervigard collar allows for an improved correction to the upper cervical lordosis at levels C-3 and C-4. While we will not be able to assess how much more the lumbar disc pathology in this case can improve, we can assume it will improve to its maximum with a fully healed cervical lordosis! The correction potential X-ray is an essential tool to achieve these types of spinal correction.
