I am constantly amazed at how many people watch YouTube videos of Chiropractors adjusting or “cracking” people. They even have a term for it called ASMR (Autonomic Sensory Meridian Response). This is defined as a relaxing often sedative sensation from the auditory stimulation. When I interview patients as to why they watch these videos the most common answer I get is “I find it quite relieving”. So I decided to make my first Quarantine video doing precisely that. An educational video on Chiropractic topped off with some good old pseudo-ASMR cracks.
Remember the sensation and the relief when your back released. Remember the gratitude you felt after getting off the table. Take that feeling with you and smile. At this point, you would have signaled your limbic system and pre-frontal cortex to activate your parasympathetic nervous system and cause an immediate relaxation and possibly pain relief.
