[0002] The spine is the central axis and backbone of the human body. It bears the head on the top and the pelvis on the bottom, and there are ribs in the middle. It is the back wall of the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity. It protects and carries the internal organs, and protects the body's main material transport-the aorta and veins. It takes care of the main trunk line of human information transmission-spinal cord and spinal nerves. The health of the spine is the basis of human health.

[0003] The spine can perform three-dimensional movements within the range of physiological activities to adapt to people's life, study and labor. Once it exceeds its range of activities or carrying capacity, it will cause spinal tendon injuries and appear "uncomfortable" (including intervertebral disc herniation, but the intervertebral disc does not have Pain-sensing nerves, a simple disc herniation does not cause pain). Injury to the intervertebral joint capsule, ligament, fascia, sarcolemma, muscle, tendon, cartilage will cause local pain and dysfunction, and injury to a spinal nerve will cause tissue and organ dysfunction in the nerve management area. At this time, if the "uncomfortable" can be corrected in time; the purpose of rehabilitation can be achieved by repairing the damage by itself. If it is not corrected, over time, the light will become sub-health, and the severe will become disease.
