Break

studio capture, one light.

An x-ray of my cervical spine which was made in 2008.
I already wanted to take this picture a few years ago but I always had problems with the realization of it. After a few more tries and tips from friends It’s finally done. It wasn’t easy. It’s a single photo, here’s the setting. Of course I removed the borders of the radiograph and edited the rest of my body. In the picture it seems like the cervical spine is a very fragile thing which could break very quickly. Break. On the other hand you all know that the CS is a very strong and tricky thing. “The cervical spine is the most complicated articular system in the body, with 37 separate joints (including six intervertebral discs). The normal cervical spine moves 600 times per hour, whether the individual is awake or sleeping..” (from www.nasachiropractic.com)

Many people have problems with the CV. So do I. Neck Pain every day, paresthesias and so on. You can see in the picture that my CV is straight, no normal curvature. This can happen through poor posture. So people: pay attention to your posture.
