We have found that the more you know about something, the more benefit it becomes to you. Would you agree with that?
When we first got smart phones, we literally didn’t know how to turn it on much less use it. But the more we read about it, the more we learned, we began to be able to:
- connect to the internet
- use a spreadsheet
- send e-mails
- listen to music
- use a word processor
- and much more.
The more we found out about this smart phone, the more valuable and useful it became to me.
The same is true about chiropractic.
Most people get about 5% of the optimal value from their chiropractic because that is about all they know of it. Most people go to chiropractors with an ache or a pain or some other problem much like you came in with. Those that only go for these reasons are only seeing that small 5% value and benefit. Unfortunately, anyone ONLY going for those reasons will be missing out on the other 95% of what chiropractic has to offer. This office is all about the other 95%. If someone gave you a choice that you could have 5% of something or 95% of something, which would you take? RIGHT! And by the way, I’ve yet to have someone tell me they only want the 5%! Everyone like yourself chooses the 95%. I know one thing, that if I am laying out my hard earned money for something I want to know that I am getting THE MOST that I can from that particular thing. Chiropractic is no exception. That’s why in this office, we are totally dedicated to making sure that you receive the MOST value from your chiropractic care
In order to understand about chiropractic and this other 95% we are talking about, you need to understand a little bit about how your body works.
Your body is designed with an inborn ability to maintain itself in a state of proper function. A newborn baby may seem small, fragile and helpless, but within that body is the ability to make food into living tissue, to heal cuts and bruises, to adapt to changes in the environment, to produce the chemicals necessary to perform every bodily function, to fight off invading organisms, to live as much as 100 or more years. In short, to lead a healthy, productive life. In chiropractic, we call this ability Innate Intelligence.
The brain and nerve system are the primary tools by which we attain proper function, what we commonly call health. Every organ, gland and cell in the body depends upon messages carried to and from the brain in order to function in a coordinated manner so that each part can benefit the whole of the body producing a full and abundant life.
Interference in the nerve system reduces the body’s ability to function in a coordinated manner. While a corpse has a brain and nerve system, it does not have life, there is no power or energy flowing over the nerve system. Similarly, a paralyzed person has lost function due to injury to the nerve system. Even slight damage to the delicate and vital nerve system can reduce the body’s ability to function at its fullest potential.
A spinal misalignment that interferes with the nerve system (called a vertebral subluxation) creates a reduction in coordinated function. Slight misalignments of the bones of the spine caused by everyday, common activities can interfere with the ability of the nerve system to carry messages that are necessary for the successful accomplishment of those everyday activities, not the least of which is the attainment of maximum health. Vertebral subluxations interfere with the full expression of ALL their potentials, not just the potential for health.
Chiropractors correct vertebral subluxations. The single objective of the chiropractor is to locate and correct vertebral subluxation in adults and children so that families and entire communities are able to express life at a higher level.
If you and your family are not seeing a chiropractor regularly, you are not doing all you could for your life and health.
Chiropractic Absolutes
Vertebral subluxation always causes the body to work at less than 100%. You cannot ever reach your full potential in life without regular chiropractic care. Since no other health care professionals address vertebral subluxations, there are no alternatives to chiropractic care. And Chiropractic is never an approach to treating disease. The innate intelligence of the body can always run it better than the finite educated mind.
The practice of chiropractic in THIS office allows the wisdom of your body (ii) to be more fully expressed across the full spectrum of human potentials and does not include and is not represented to include any diagnosis, treatment, cure or prevention of any mental, physical or emotional disorder of any kind, or the rendering of any opinion about the same.
