In order to visualize what happens to your head in a collision, you just need to think about a ball which is placed on top of a spring. If you're involved in a rear end collision your torso will be propelled forward because of the impact, while your head will tend to lag behind due to inertia. In such instances the head often reaches what is known as 'hyper-extension' before being jerked forward by the rest of the body. In the vast majority of cases where this occurs people will sustain neck injuries. The most common neck injury sustained because of a collision is called whiplash, or in medical terms, cervical hyperextension.

During pregnancy, a woman's center of gravity shifts forward to the front of her pelvis. This additional weight in front, causes stress to the joints of the pelvis and low back. As the baby grows in size, the added weight causes the curvature of her lower back to increase, placing extra stress on the fragile facet joints on the back side of the spine. Any pre-existing problems in a woman's spine tend to be exacerbated as the spine and pelvis become overtaxed, often leading to pain and difficulty performing normal daily activities.

Today, we are more stressed-out than ever before. The stress of careers, deadlines, conflicts, and demands on our time and money, take a huge toll on our health and well-being. Just as a chain tends to break at its weakest link, we seem to exhibit stress and strain in the weakest areas of our bodies. Stress basically comes in three forms of overload. We encounter physical stress, emotional stress, and chemical stress. In fact, we are subject to all three stress factors at the same time. When we overload, it always manifests in symptoms at our weakest link. Stress can provoke ulcers, migraines, low back pain, insomnia, and other illnesses.
