What is the Unwinding Process?

The “unwinding process” is the process which your body must go through to untwist through all the ways it has been structurally and biomechanically misaligned. You can think of it as working backwards through all the layers of subluxations and compensations (the spinal misalignments) which your body has acquired over your lifetime.

The unwinding process is your body’s response to treatment with ABC™ technique. As  you progress through your course of care with ABC™ you will go through what are termed as “forward” and “backward” phases of unwinding as your body corrects through each layer of problem and associated compensations. During a “forward unwind” the body returns to a previous injury position which it has had to compensate for in the past. When your body revisits this forward injury position, you may experience a return, increase or change in your symptoms. Some people even report onset of symptoms that "feel exactly like" some specific injury they've had in the past (like a car accident or a sports injury). But with further ABC™ treatment your body will be able to untwist or unwind through the forward injury position, and subsequently let go of the associated compensations it has put in place to cope with that particular injury or subluxation. As your body comes out of the forward unwind, the posture comes more upright. As the body moves back and away from the forward injury position, symptoms improve or disappear. This is what is referred to as the “backward phase” of unwinding.

The unwinding process is sometimes an uncomfortable process, but it is a necessary process if you want to truly correct the postural changes which result from the inevitable biostructural breakdown of the spine and body. Though for some people it may feel as though things get worse before they get better, most patients who have experienced it would tell you that the results they achieve for going through the unwinding process are more than worth any discomfort they endured along the way. And for many people, their forward unwinds are of little to no nuisance at all.

The results are always the same though. The unwinding process restores proper structure and function to the spine and body, allowing for better health and wellness through better posture.
