Drugged For Normal – The Medical Matrix Our bodies are designed for perfect function. Indeed, there are genetic failures of this system due to what many blame as environmental factors, which is certainly a huge part of the problem. We’ve been conditioned however to view health function as illness. Inflammation Vomiting Diarrhea Fear & Anxiety High Blood Pressure Pain Insomnia You see, all of these (and many other) responses to the environment are normal. A recent article in the New York Times highlights the state of managing women’s feelings, emotions and normal responses to the world, with medication.

Pain Can Be Deceiving Nearly every European patient that I see or have seen have x-ray, MRI, or CT scans. Patients come in with a variety of complaints ranging from foot pain from running to hemi-paralysis from a live polio vaccine at age 1 1/2. I came to an interesting conclusion after my latest trip. Symptoms and underlying problems don’t always match up. People with no pain have major underlying issues on MRI that are just waiting to manifest. Herniated discs, massive osteophytes and degeneration, compressed vertebrae, flattened discs, none of which they were feeling at the time of their checkup. Others came in with tremendous pain and discomfort and their xray, MRI and CT scans showed nothing. Surface EMG (sEMG) and spinal nerve thermography did show tremendous dysfunction in some of those cases. Bottom line. Pain can be deceiving. It can also be caused my something minor or you can have a major problem with no pain at all. In either case, it’s good to know what is going on in your body and have time to correct things for a healthier, happier future. Spinal hygiene and maintenance, whether we like it or not, is critical for...
