“101 Ways to Get Subluxated”


“101 Ways to Get Subluxated”

#27 – Dropping 420 lbs on your head at the Olympics. Can you imagine gold medalist weight lifter Matthias Steiner's next Chiropractic visit… 'hey doc, my neck’s sore and I’ve been getting these bad headaches. Think it could be my pillow?” 
The father of Chiropractic, D.D. Palmer recognized 3 ‘T’s as being the major cause of nerve interference (aka Subluxation): Trauma, Toxins and Thoughts. The first 'T' is pretty obvious, but many patients overlook the last two. TOXINS come in the form of pesticides, artificial additives in our food, cigarette smoke and the most common of all, pharmaceuticals (yes, drugs are foreign to the body and put added stress on your nerve system). ConstantTHOUGHTS of fear, worry and depression can also weaken your sensitive nerve system and make it harder to heal.
Many patients believe it’s only physical things like car accidents, bad pillows and the occasional ‘400 lbs barbell on the head’ that can cause nerve interference, when in reality it’s the daily bombardment of hidden food toxins and stressful thoughts that commonly do the most damage.

“Once You Start Eating Broccoli”

“Once You Start Eating Broccoli”

… do you have to eat it for the rest of your Life?  The answer is obviously no, unless your parents still have an iron grip on your diet.  No one can force you to do something that's good for your health and your Life if you don't want to.
If you don't want to renew that gym membership, go to yoga classes or reduce your stress with meditation, that's up to you.  Don't feel like watching your sugar intake or taking your vitamins, the choice is yours to reap the benefits or face the consequences.  And the same goes for your Chiropractic care. 
That rumor that says 'once you start Chiropractic care, you have to keep going for the rest of your life' is a big fallacy.  Although it's true, many clients who start Chiropractic CHOOSE to continue with maintenance care because they appreciate the truckload of Life benefits that goes with having a strong spine and clear Nerve System… no one is forcing them to do so.  They do it because it simply makes sense - just like eating their broccoli.
