Chiropractic Attitude: Chiropractors as Healers


Part One: The Surface
Chiropractors, as a profession, are viewed by the general public as healers of back and neck pain.  To attain your license, you must pass exams which show your competency in the medical sciences and patient exams.  But is that IT? 
NO WAY!  The start of bone doctors in America, Chiropractors, is over 100 years old.  It has survived persecution and jail time to keep our profession alive, before becoming licensed.   

It is through the PHILOSOPHY OF CHIROPRACTIC these doctors (B.J. Palmer being the founder) have worked passionately to affect the human body to work at its peak level. 
One Quote that describes Chiropractic Philosophy states,  

“The Power that Made the Body, Heals the Body.”
What does that mean?  Let’s break it down:
            “The Power that Made the Body”: our body has innate intelligence, spirit, being, etc. (not our brain) which controls our physical development from conception until when we die.  This intelligence performs this by using the NERVOUS SYSTEM (brain and spinal cord) to send POWER or ENERGY.  Science measures this energy as electricity running throughout our body.
            “Heals the Body”:  According to Gray’s Anatomy, the ultimate scientific guide in understanding the body, the Nervous System controls and regulates ALL FUNCTIONS of the body.  Functions include muscles, heart, liver, kidneys, intestines, arteries… EVERYTHING!  For example, innate intelligence powers our body to heal a cut on your hand, while a dead person’s hand would keep an open wound. 
So when you summarize the above quote used to describe Chiropractic Philosophy, it allows Innate Intelligence to keep ALL PARTS of the Body functioning at OPTIMUM levels through FREE NERVE FLOW.

    So this is why my energy levels are much better when I come in regularly for my adjustments. I think implementing this attitude in my chiropractic care would have been very helpful in understanding why I just feel "better" even when I am not in pain.

Top 3 Chiropractic CONCERNS

These concerns, or as I call them anxieties , usually prevent someone from seeing a Chiropractor. And sometimes, stops the person from starting Chiropractic care after they realize they need it. Let’s see what they are and how our office has been able to ease these fears over the years. #1: “I don’t want you to break my neck.” Who hasn’t seen an action movie that involves the twisting of a neck and instantaneous eternal sleep (death)? Scary, right? ONLY in the Movies !!! Approximately 2-5 new patients per year have this permanently scared in their brain and refuse to at least give it a try. With the use of x-ray , exam and health history you have a better probability of getting a stroke from a scary movie than a chiropractic adjustment. The “ popping sound ” of the adjustment is the release of joint pressure similar to the feel and sound of your knuckle popping. The initial muscle relaxation alone after your first neck adjustment is usually enough to break this anxiety . #2: “...

THERE IS A RADICAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEDICINE AND CHIROPRACTIC!

This article was written by Herman Dunn, on our behalf to avoid bias. We have all been indoctrinated into the medical model, and few of us have much understanding of chiropractic procedures.  Each is distinct, and it is important to know the difference if you wish to make intelligent health care choices. Allow me to explain further. First of all, let me make it clear that Chiropractic is not better than Medicine nor vice versa – they are just different.  The practice of medicine saves lives!  We need to know the truth about it, however, in order to use it appropriately. If we view the scale of our state of health as a range from perfect health to extreme sickness, we can distinguish the focus of Chiropractic from the focus of Medicine and clearly see the difference between the two.  Medicine is primarily concerned with the sickness end of the scale, and the Medical Doctors are expert at identifying and treating illness.   Chiropractic Doctors foc...
