Research has found that 12% of all couples in the United States have problems getting pregnant, problems with infertility. That's over 7 million couples having a hard time having a child. That's a lot. I didn't realize the numbers were that big until we started having quite a few people coming into our office with infertility problems, getting pregnant. And you're probably thinking, well how can upper cervical chiropractic have anything to do with infertility? How can a problem in my neck prevent me from being able to get pregnant or have children? 
 Well, let me tell you a story about Mindy. So, just like you, probably watching this video, Mindy really did not believe that upper cervical chiropractic or a problem in her neck could have anything to do with her ability to get pregnant. So Mindy came to me and she had spent over a $180,000 trying to get pregnant on infertility clinics, on medications.  About eight years they were trying to get pregnant and so she comes into the office one day and she says, "You know, I really don't know why I'm here. My sister said I had to come here so, I just figured I'd just come and see what this is about." I said, "No problem." So we checked her. We did an upper cervical evaluation and we found that she definitely had a misalignment at the top of her neck and that was interfering with the normal transmission from her brain to her body. Now, where does that go? Well, that's really impossible to know. It could be interfering with the messages say, to her reproductive system. So, we took some x-rays, and we found that the top bone in her neck was actually the one that was out of line. We made a very specific correction to that top bone, putting it back perfectly where it's supposed to be and then we did a post evaluation and we found that now the bone was repositioned. 
 So, I told Mindy, "Okay, so now what we need to do is keep an eye on this over the next several months, so that as soon as that bone goes back out, we get it back in place. As we keep the bone in place, the communication is opened back up between the brain and the body and the body starts to heal and then we hope to see that the reproductive system starts to work like it's supposed to. Mindy says, "You know what? I'm moving to Dallas in a month, so you know, we really don't have time to do this. There's no need in continuing on." I was like, "well, it's up to you." I said, "Why don't we do this, why don't we see what we can do within a month, just to see. You know? You never know how quick the body's going respond. So if we just monitor you until you go to Dallas, then at least we can see where things go." So, Mindy says, "Okay, sure."
 Mindy left and never showed up again. She canceled her next appointment.  A couple of months went by and I'm in the office, seeing patients and my office manager comes up to me and she says, "Dr. Drury, you've got a phone call and it's some lady from Dallas. So I go and I pick up the phone, and I said, "Hello?" And they said, "Dr. Drury, I love you!" I'm like, okay... She said, "This is Mindy." She said, "You probably don't even remember me, but I came in your office, you checked me and gave me one correction." I said, "This is a waste of time, here I am two months later, I've not done anything else, and I'm pregnant. I was like, "Wow. Congratulations Mindy!" 
 Now, Mindy is kind of the exception. Okay? It doesn't often happen from one correction. What you have to do is find out if there's something that could be potentially interfering with the messages from your brain to the reproductive system to make sure that everything happens the way it's supposed to. If there's a problem there, and we can remove any interference between your brain and your body, then things start to work normally. If you're not able to get pregnant, there's a reason. It could very possibly be that your body just has some interference problems, some electrical wiring issues that when straightened out can normalize and the body can then actually do what it's supposed to do. What it's intended. Now, if you're suffering from infertility, I recommend you at least go and find an upper cervical chiropractor near you that can check you to see if maybe there is something interfering with the normal transmission from your brain to your reproductive system. If there is, then if he corrects it and removes that interference, then there's a good chance that your body will work normal and things should happen as they're designed, right? And you should be able to get pregnant.
