Very often, patients with a spinal misalignment in the upper-middle (thoracic) spine find themselves with digestive problems. This is because nerves in this area impact your production of digestive enzymes and stomach acid. They are also responsible for how the lower esophageal sphincter functions (the muscle that closes the esophagus after passing food into the stomach).
Patients who have subluxations in the lower back (lumbar and sacral spine) often have trouble with their large intestines that seems connected to lower back pain and sciatica. For example, gas and bloating are often companions with lower back pain in this way.
