What you have seen and what controlled studies on much larger samples reflect may be two different things.

Remember, we only know about 10% of our brain functions....if humans are as highly developed as we all want to believe, don't you think that maybe, just maybe, somewhere inside is the ability to fix the problems that one may encounter?

The 10% of our brain claim is a myth.
Snopes has a summary. If you google it you can find other sources of evidence debunking it.

Is there any empirical evidence of this? (Even if there is, there is no reason to conclude that spinal alignment should cure disease).

Anyone who has studied biology for a microsecond could tell you that the brain communicates with the central nervous system.

Yes, the brain is part of the CNS, but I'm not so sure about this
