We are not God, and we do not have all of the answers. In addition, although I know the subluxation exists at atlas or axis, there are fundemental chiropractic principles that can show subluxation at other levels of the spine. I think if most took the time, they would find as B.J. the lower spine will clear with adjustments to the primary subluxation (C1 or C2) but if instrumentation is used and evidence shows a subluxation at L4; there is no shame in making an adjsutment at that level. What is shameful is not using the correct tools and manipluating segments for the sake of manipulating them. Follow the principle...It won't let you down.
