Are there certain imbalances that can cause bones to shift out of place easily, as in the need to go to the chiropractor on a regular basis? I had read that this can be a symptom of vata imbalance, but I'd like to understand what is happening in the body that causes this weakness (in TCM terms as well as western terms if possible). Thank you!

Genetic disorders such as Ehlers- Danlos syndrome can cause this, there is also a Joint Hypermobility Syndrome for which the cause is unknown, from a TCM perspective if it is mostly the low back, knees or ankles it is a sign of Kidney Yang deficiency and herbs such as Teasel root, Achyranthes, Drynaria are used.
