There are 2 reasons people get sick


11.  They are deficient in a requirement to express health. This could be a vitamin or mineral. It could be water or oxygen. It could be movement of the body.

22.     They have something toxic in their system. This could be withheld anger. It could be artificial colors from foods. It could be drugs, alcohol, caffeine, or nicotine.

These are chronic stressors. So how do we get and stay well? Imagine this analogy.
We are born into a swimming pool with a backpack and a flotation device. The flotation device has a small leak in it that will last about 120 years. This is the average life expectancy. What stress represents in your life is a rock in the backpack. Every time you put a rock in that backpack, you sink a little lower in the water. Day to day life becomes more of a struggle and it is harder to keep your head above water.

Do you think that the answer to that backpack full of rocks is to take a blood pressure medicine to keep your blood pressure down? What drug can fix a problem caused by not enough nutrients in the diet, or caused by chronic subluxation or caused by sedentary living?
*Spending on prescription drugs in the United States has risen nearly 600% since 1990
*Adverse drug reactions reported by the Food and Drug Administration tripled between 1995 and 2005, and research finds these reactions are the fourth leading cause of death in the United States.

Chronic Illness is a lifestyle issue. It is a rock-in-the-backpack issue. And until we learn how to take the rocks out of the backpack, there is no chance to regain health.
Your body is a self-healing, self-regulating system. Subluxations are rocks in the backpack. Chiropractic adjustments remove those rocks from the backpack and allow the body to self-heal and self-regulate as nature intended.
Questions for your life: Are you trying to change your physiology from the outside-in OR are you releasing the innate intelligence of the body to regulate what it needs to?

FREEDOM- CHIROPRACTIC STYLE

Freedom is a very powerful word. Freedom is the ability to exercise choice. Freedom is also the capacity to engage in certain actions without interference, The concept and principles of freedom are enormous; countries have been founded on it, societies run by it and wars have been fought over it. Chiropractic care shares many similarities with the definitions that are mentioned above because it offers freedom for people who choose to use it. Most people think of chiropractic care as a natural treatment of an ache or an injury, the freedom from pain. This can be valuable to the person suffering from discomfort. It alows them to resume their normal activities, return to work or sleep through the night. They can do their homework, earn the money they need to support their family or have energy throughout the day when the pain is no longer there, normal routines return.
