A proven and effective approach to chiropractic healing.

Here’s how the Zone Technique works on a core level:

According to Dr. Thurman Fleet, the creator of Zone Therapy, the human brain is composed of many centers. 

These centers form in the embryonic stage of life and develop from the dorso-medial ectoderm of the embryo. There is a center which controls the glands of the body, a center which is associated with the organs of elimination, a center which regulates the central nervous system, and which is differentiated as an ectodermal neural plate in the dorso-medial region of the ectoderm. The digestive organs are regulated by a brain center. In the motor cortex of the brain we find a center which controls all of the muscles of the body, and in the caudate nuclei (both), we find the center which regulates the flow of fluids (circulation) through the body. 

Dr. Fleet compared the human body to an ELECTRICAL MACHINE, these 6 brain centers represent the POSITIVE POLE of the body, and specific related points in the spinal cord represent the NEGATIVE POLE of the body. When there is a disturbance in any of the bodily areas, one or more of these centers are “shorted out." 

There has been a disruption of normal function of the entire center due to the effect of emotional, physical, or chemical stress. 

At Dr. Browne’s office in Dunwoody, he examines the patient to determine which of the brain centers are not in harmony with the systems they control. This is done by feeling specific points on the patient’s head. These points are related to the six brain centers by nerve connections. When a brain center is not sending the proper signals to its system, all bodily material associated with that system suffers. In order to correct this, the zone doctor stimulates specific points in the spinal cord. 

There are six sets of four points in the spinal cord (negative pole) that are related to the six brain centers (positive pole). Stimulation of the proper points by Dr. Browne sends healing energy up the spinal cord to the brain centers that need balancing. The balanced brain centers then are able to send out the proper signals to the body’s systems and the body is better able to heal itself.

Zone Technique is a spinal cord stimulation technique. This can be accomplished in many ways through light force instrumentation or by way of traditional diversified chiropractic adjustments. Dunwoody Chiropractor Dr. Nate Browne is Mastermind certified in Zone Technique and has helped many of his patients overcome issues ranging from traditional neck and back pain to symptoms caused by chronic health conditions.
