'At Home' with Advanced BioStructural Correction 

by Dr. Jesse Jutkowitz

Previously, I noted the theories of ligament remolding and muscle strengthening are dead. Buying the Advanced BioStructural Correction (ABC) "At-Home Seminar" will gain you many practice advantages. ABC predictably and consistently gets the results promised.

You get fast pain relief and amazingly fast changes in posture and consistent and predictable spinal curve corrections -- taking X-rays or not.

ABC notes spinal column mechanics become pathological in three dimensions. The spinal column twists and bends to compensate for the pathologies in three dimensions.

ABC predicts an unwinding of scolioses as they correct, not a straightening. This is why you cannot force a spinal segment into the proper place and why all mirror image adjusting, exercises etc. do not consistently and predictably result in corrections. It is also why other methods speak in percentages of correction at best. They look at these things two dimensionally and their treatment is based on those observations while simulating three dimensional knowledge.

ABC notes consistent and predictable corrections will be had for all structural pathologies not related to cancer, fractures, infections and the like.

Example

Here you can study (see figs.) an example of layered curves, the reason most methods do not consistently undo scolioses. A most basic explanation follows the case data.

The 31-year-old female is a patient of Dr. George Kukurin. Radiographs demonstrate progressive reduction of adult scoliosis with Advanced BioStructural Correction.

This is a typical patient. What is special is that Dr. Kukurin has never been to a live seminar teaching ABC, has never met me in person, nor been taught live. You, too, can learn to do this from just the At-Home seminar.

Report

Dr. George Kukurin: "A patient in my office since 1997, she had chronic back and neck pain.

 

"The left film (fig. 1) is from Oct of 1999, after several years of diversified/CBP/Pettibon with no change, just before I switched her to Advanced BioStructural Correction which I had just learned.

"Note her scoliosis measures 35-degrees by Cobb's method. The scoliotic apex is at L2 and the distance from the spinous-laminar line to the lateral aspect of the vertebral body is 1.75 on the left and 4.5 on the right suggesting vertebral body rotation at L2.

"Re-X-rayed/examed on 12/22/99 after a short course of ABC. Note (fig. 2) the spine has transformed into a lateral translation to the opposite side with only a small 6-degree scoliosis. This is a 29-degree reduction in scoliosis and reversal of curve direction from L4 up into the thoracics. Rotation of L2 did not change (1.75-4.5) so this is not a positioning issue. No room here to show/discuss changes in the laterals but this shows an untwisting or unwinding in three dimensions as predicted for this patient.

"Re-X-rayed/examed seven weeks further on 02/05/01 (fig.3). The spine is now coming around again (imagine it untwisting backward and sideways together) and unwinding further as ABC predicted. The L2 rotation remained virtually unchanged (2-4mm) again positioning is no factor.

"It is tempting to interpret the spinous-laminar line/vertebral body measurements as indicating the patient has a structural scoliosis with asymmetrical pedicles meaning no change possible -- the right pedicle supposedly being substantially longer than the left. This is an excuse used by many methods when bodies do not change. With ABC, even these change.

"ABC is chiropractic as it was meant to be. Thanks to Dr. Jutkowitz for discovering the few things that were missing until now and putting things in an easy to learn and easy to implement order."

On the original films of Dr. Kukurin's patient, you can just barely see that L5 does not line-up as part of the lateral curve to the right. To predict where it will go you would have to measure the laterals but this is a typical sequence of unwinding of "layered curves" that no one else addresses.

That curve to the right in the lower lumbars of the first films is actually three curves: L5 or so going right; L4 and some of L3 going left (more obvious on the second film as the body untwists going to the left at that point while the lowest curve to the right is still there); and the lowest curve to the right -- seen on the first film as a slight misalignment within the curve to the right at the L5-L4 location -- more vividly seen in the second films and finally itself unwinding (remember that these are three dimensional curves although we are looking at a front view) in the third film.

For those of you questioning whether this really is a typical result, the answer is "yes," and many other D.C.s report the same. It demonstrates and illustrates an unwinding or untwisting curve in its typical appearance. The fact that the curve to the right is layered is missed by many. Trying to straighten this as one curve does not work and causes many chiropractors and their patients great anxiety because what they are doing does not work to untwist all the curves -- therefore they do not change the scoliosis.
