Chiropractic Health Orientation
- 1. Health isn’t about gazing into a crystal ball. You were born to be healthy. It’s not a mystery if you know where to look.
- 2. Have You Ever Wondered? Why some people stay healthy and other people lose their health? Why do you go to a doctor?
- 3. We Go To The Doctor Because we don’t FEEL well. And everything we have tried ourselves has not worked to make us FEEL better.
- 4. What Is Your Medical Experience? Either they put something into your body like a pill or a shot. Or they take things out of your body with surgery. What’s wrong with this thinking?
- 5. What’s Wrong Is... How you feel is not the same as how you are. Putting things in and taking things out doesn’t give your body the credit it deserves. Our bodies have the intelligence it takes to heal itself.
- 6. The Body Can Heal Itself? You don’t have to THINK about seeing, hearing, breathing, keeping your heart beating or digesting your food. Cuts don’t heal faster in college graduates.
- 7. What Controls Our Self-Healing Ability? The key to our ability to heal ourselves is our inborn intelligence. This inborn intelligence flows throughout your entire body by way of the nervous system. This communication can sometimes be blocked.
- 8. What Blocks Our Ability To Heal Ourselves? Chiropractors call this block to nervous system function a subluxation . This affects the muscles which attach to the bones of the spine. This causes spinal misalignments which cause more nerve system disturbance.
- 9. What Causes Subluxations? Not enough food is called STARVATION Not enough water is called DEHYDRATION Not enough air is called SUFFOCATION Not enough nerve function is called SUBLUXATION
- 10. Nerve Irritation Is Caused By The 3 “T’s” Tension is emotional stress from social pressures, financial and family problems. Toxins include chemical stress from legal and illegal drugs, poor diet, smoking and alcohol. Trauma is physical stress from falls, accidents, poor posture and not enough rest.
- 11. Physical Stress Subluxations are often the result of a physical stress that is more than the body can easily adapt to.
- 12. Chemical Stress Poor diet, junk foods, drugs (both legal and illegal) and pollution have long range negative effects on health. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
- 13. Emotional Stress Sometimes emotional stress like uncontrolled anger can be enough to short circuit the nervous system.
- 14. Subluxation Is A Process The subluxation process is like dominoes. Once the nervous system is disturbed, the rest of the body stops working properly.
