A New Approach to Health


When many people think of chiropractic, they immediately think of a therapy for neck pain and back pain. And it is true that some chiropractors practice this way; however any principled chiropractor will tell you that if it is practice this way, it is a huge waste of its enormous potential. The truth of the matter is that chiropractic is not a therapy at all. In fact it is a science of an entirely new healing art, which is truly unique.

Currently in the world there are two ways to look at health. The first way is a therapeutic approach. The goal of this look at health is to find a cure for symptoms and create relief in the patient. There are two ways to “cure” symptoms in this approach; 1) Using drugs and surgery or 2) Using other modalities (PT, homeopathy, acupuncture, naturopathy, etc.) While at first it may seem that a therapy-based model for health seems like a good idea, a deeper look reveals that it is a backwards way to health, and is the reason why we currently have the sickest industrial nation in the world.

Under a therapy-approach, symptoms are seen as the problem; and almost anything is performed to alleviate the symptoms. However, symptoms are never the problem, they are a warning sign that dis-ease is present. An relevant analogy would be comparing symptoms to a fire alarm. If your house was on fire, would you want to cut the alarm or put out the fire. Well under the therapy model, we are just cutting the alarm! This is why you may be feeling great, and have relief, but inside you are still on fire!

The other approach to health is non-therapy based. It’s main purpose is not to “cure” anything, but to find the CAUSE of dis-ease. Once the cause is found, the body will cure itself, and symptoms will naturally go way. This is why everyone should see a chiropractor no matter what condition they have! Chiropractic is for everyone. Get your family checked today!

Dis-ease vs. disease


What is the one thing that all diseases have in common? The body isn’t working right! If your body was working correctly, the cells wouldn’t duplicate rapidly causing cancer, your heart would be beating at the right speed and right pressure, and your body would fight off the influenza virus so that you wouldn’t catch the flu. You see, there are thousands and thousands of diseases out there, but they are all effects of something known as dis-ease. Dis-ease is a disruption of communication between the brain stem and the body caused by a subluxation. If there is a break-down of communication, then the body will begin to weaken, and creates a perfect breeding ground for disease to grow.
A great analogy to describe this condition would be a dump. If you have a piece of land that becomes a dump, inevitable rats will begin to flock there. You can poison the dump, and kill all of the rats, however if the dump is left to sit there, more rats will congregate, and the cycle repeated. The only way to break the cycle is to clean up the dump! The same holds true for your body. If you have dis-ease that is caused by a subluxation it creates a “dump” inside your body. Just like the rats, different diseases will find this environment to be perfect to thrive in. You can take care of the diseases by using medications, surgery, or other therapies; however if you don’t address the dis-ease, your body will still be in a weakened condition, where more and more diseases can grow.
Go see a chiropractor today so that you can reestablish the communication between your brain stem and every single cell of your body. It’s far more important to take care of the cause of the problem and let your body take care of the symptoms on its own.

ADD - Treat the Cause, Not the Effects


ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) is becoming more and more common in children. Instead of looking for the cause of the problem, doctors are quick to prescribe Ritalin, a mind-altering drug that actually suppresses the nervous system. The nervous system is the root of the problem and therefore chiropractors should be the first doctor a child with ADD or ADHD sees so that their subluxations can be removed and the body can heal itself from the inside-out.

Giving a child Ritalin is an outside-in approach and will not work. A child’s brain and nervous system is still developing and interfering with this process will only injure the child. The body wants to heal itself and when the child’s energy is able to flow freely without interference (subluxation), the body can function optimally with full life potential!

Instead of drugging your children with medicine that will damage their nervous systems and cause more health problems in the long run, including death, give them something that will increase the function of their nervous system.
