Chiropractic – The Most Empowered Healthcare Profession
Chiropractors Need Nothing. One of the reasons I became a chiropractor is because it’s old school. In 1895 when chiropractic as we know it today began, there was no technology. There were just brains and hands. Unlike dentists, surgeons, primary care doctors, pharmacists, even some physical therapists, Chiropractors need no gadgets. All we need is the knowledge to identify subluxation and the skills to correct it. Today I leave for Romania. Me and my adjusting table. Yes, I am taking technology – scanning devices and tools that help me help patients but When I was in school we were not allowed to use these in the clinic. We were trained to be old school chiropractors, to use our hands and to think on our feet. I was always extremely attracted to the idea of being able to be dropped in the middle of the jungle and set up a clinic on a dirt floor with nothing but leaves over my head. And the beautiful reality of being a chiropractor is that this is possible. I know of no medical doctor, dentist or other type of healthcare professional that has access to the healing that a chiropractor has...

The Importance Of Body Chemistry. Portland, Maine Dr. Reggie Gold was one of the most influential chiropractors of all time. Dr. Golds’ ability to explain chiropractic in a clear and understandable way was unparalleled. Though this video is old, the message remains true today. Not much has changed in the way of basic understanding of basic neurophysiology and body chemistry. If you live in Portland, Maine, you need to know that your chiropractor is taking more in to consideration than just your back pain, you need to consider body chemistry. Sure, back pain is helped by chiropractic but it is just one of many issues that chiropractic can help you with. Subluxation or misalignment of the spine that interferes with nerve communication from the brain may have much further reaching influence that you know, it can effect your body chemistry. In fact, subluxation is often present without any pain, leading to a silent decline of one’s regulatory mechanisms and health capacity. Your entire body chemistry is controlled by the brain through communication through the spinal cord and spinal nerves. In this video featuring Dr. Gold, you will learn about your body chemistry, how bad chemistry leads to...

Why Should Children Receive Chiropractic Adjustments? When was the last time you watched a child over the age of one? Kids fall a lot. They bump, bruise and crash as they are learning to stand, walk, run and ride. Each bump is an opportunity to misalign bones of the spine that may result in harmful pressure on nerves. These spinal lesions called “subluxations” decrease the quality of nerve control that supplies the body with control, regulation and healing messages. Messages that are interfered with, lead to dis-regulation of body systems which may negatively impact the growth and development of the child. Removing interference improves function. In fact, removing interference to anything, improves function. Spinal adjustments to remove subluxation in children are much different than those adults. Extremely light touch to the spine in the presence of the parent is the standard. While there are no guarantees that the child will develop perfectly, one thing is certain. A child with less nerve interference will function better than that same child would function with interference. Giving our children the best opportunity to develop into the best version of themselves is one of the greatest gifts we can share...

Patients wearing their Fitbit to bed have begun reporting that the device is showing improved sleep patterns since the beginning of their treatment.

Chiropractica din Romania 2014-2015 Chiropractic is not a treatment of disease, injury or deformity, it is a facilitation of the body’s innate ability to regulate, control and heal itself when interference to the nerve system is removed. When the body, brain and nerve system achieve optimal function through reduced or no interference to control, the body will regulate and heal itself. Chiropractic is well known for eliminating back pain, neck pain, hip pain, headaches and other neuromusculoskeletal pain, but this is a positive side effect of proper neurological function and healing achieved through structural adjustments and not due to direct treatment of disease. There is no cure for the common cold. Your body is able to eliminate the cold, however. Medicine does not heal a cut finger – your body heals a cut finger and replaces the skin. Trillions of functions of the body are being performed every second in every living human being without any thought and under normal circumstances, every function is executed perfectly. As you read this, over 3 billion cells in your body have already died and are being replaced with new cells formed by your body from the supa de perisoara you...
