The healthcare box

Back in 1492 there was a man who was seen as revolutionary and a little crazy because he had ideas that were not in agreement with all of the great authorities of the day. He thought that maybe, just maybe, if he sailed West, he might not fall off the edge of the earth. Now, everyone knew that the earth was flat. Those ships that went away had to go somewhere--it is only logical that they went right over the edge. Christopher Columbus decided to go against the grain and step outside the box. As a result, we found out that the earth was round and there was a whole other continent out there.

Western society has groomed us to believe that healthcare is found in the next drug. We are told to get a piece cut out of us if part of our body isn't working right. Health is not found in the medicine cabinet or under the surgeon's knife. The person with the most perscriptions is certainly not the healthiest. But many of us still look for the next pill as soon as we get "sick". We don't get headaches from low ibuprofen in our blood stream. That is just ridiculous.

Your nervous system controls all that happens in your body, much like the conductor of an orchestra. If every musician (i.e. body part) follows the direction of the conductor, beautiful music (i.e. health) is the result. Chiropractic care is not just about back and neck pain (although it works wonderfully well with these conditions). It is the best way to remove interference to the nervous system, allowing the human body to fix itself.
