Do you feel lost?

Many times in life we all feel a little lost. Almost everyday I speak with someone who is currently dealing with feeling “lost”. They have tried everything. They went to their MD, who sent them to another MD to run tests. The tests return negative but are given a prescription anyway in the hopes it will work. Then they see a physical therapist 3x/week for 6-8 weeks while still taking the prescription their MD gave them. They go back to their MD stretched and stronger, on a prescription, and still has not gotten anywhere. They are sent to another MD who runs the same tests yet guess on another prescription and give something else to balance the effects of the first prescription.

Does this sound familiar?

We see this almost everyday in our office. I feel it is sad. Many people have been going round and round in an effort to find help. They are trying to find a path back to health. I wish I kept track of the amount of people who said after they started care, “I wish I would have found you sooner!”, or “Why didn’t someone tell me about this before?”.

If you feel lost, call us. Schedule a no-charge consult. We will tell you if we can help, at the same time if we feel we cannot help we will tell you that as well and send you in different direction.

Awake during surgery!

A very disturbing article was just released by the Associated Press stating a recent study finds 30,000 people a year wake during surgery! Click in the link to read the entire article…

I am always amazed how quickly some people jump right to surgery. It is as though they are wearing their surgery total as a badge on their sleeve. To wake up, feel and hear all that happens during surgery while all the time being paralyzed, unable to speak or move is terrifying. To add to the pain and terror of suffering through a surgery awake, now you have to deal with the pain and discomfort of the healing process of the surgery. To go through that without a guarantee that the surgery is going to “correct” the problem in the first place should really cause you to seriously consider all alternatives

This is something practitioners and believers of true health have been preaching for years. Much of the time it has fallen on deaf ears. As the old saying goes, “with time the truth be told.” Unfortunately, many suffer before the point is accepted. Please send this link to your family and friends. Let them read the facts and truths to make their own decision about these poisons being injected at will to our children. Let them know they have a choice without condemnation. Let the decision should be theirs and not someone else.

NUCCA chiropractor lowers blood pressure

Here is a link to a study from Dr. Marshall Dickholtz in Chicago demonstrating how a NUCCA spinal correction can lower blood pressure equivalent to 2 blood pressure medications. It makes sense when we understand that the body works properly when interference is removed and it can communicate with itself from the inside out as it was designed.

Is your spine out of balance?

February 20, 2008 on 1:02 am | In Uncategorized | No Comments

Many people ask me “How can I be out of alignment and still feel good?”. We get that question or something quite similar very often. Often we are out of balance or subluxated from the day we are born.

Our body is an amazing thing. It is very good at adapting to a situation/condition to survive. Kids will express this as things such as colic, asthma, ear infections (all of which have cleared up by correcting their spine in our office), etc… Adults can have very similar issues but it will be called back pain, headaches, asthma, etc… If it gets bad enough it is given a different name; disc bulge/herniation, migraines, carpal tunnel, etc…

As you see, all through our lives we can suffer from the same subluxation, just given a different as as we get older. To get back to the original question about being out of alignment and feeling good, when I am asked that by my patients I like to reference our dentists. They did a wonderful job educating people to take care of their teeth and having regular dental visits to prevent cavities. Well, do you know someone who has had a cavity and didn’t know it. Of course! Mostly all of us have had a cavity at one time or another, some more than others. We all know what happens if we do not get it taken care of right away. We end up in a lot of pain, need lots of dental work and have to pay a lot of money. Before the pain started we had the cavity and it took a trip to our dentist to find it before it got bad.

The same is true for subluxations in chiropractic. We may be out of balance but adapting to that position. At the time we may feel fine but our bodies are slowly breaking down. Essentially, we are rotting from the inside out. If it gets bad enough we will start to have symptoms, but only if it has been there long enough. Just like the dentist being the only person to be able to find a cavity before it starts causing pain, a chiropractor is the only person to be able to find a subluxation, “spinal cavity” before it starts causing pain or problems. Have you visited your chiropractor lately? It may be time for a spinal check up.

Next time well talk about the question, “Is it true that once you go to a chiropractor you have to keep going?”.

Flu vaccine: friend or foe?

I’ve been saying for years the best way to catch the flu is to get the flu vaccine. Granted, the theory of vaccination is a plausible idea but has not lived up to its expectations of eradication of disease. Another article published in popular media today is just more evidence supporting what many “alternative” practitioners have believed for years.

Flu season, and vaccine, looking worse
AP - 22 minutes ago

ATLANTA - The flu season is getting worse, and U.S. health officials say it’s partly because the flu vaccine doesn’t protect against most of the spreading flu bugs. The flu shot is a good match for only about 40 percent of this year’s flu viruses, officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Friday.

The last line of the article states, “This represents a real increase in resistance,”. The question I have, is it really an increase of resistance of the “bug” or is it a decrease in the body’s ability to defend itself? Stress (physical, emotional), trauma (accidents, injuries), toxins (food preservatives, vaccine toxicity/preservatives, environmental factors) all decrease the body’s ability to defend itself.
