“The point I am trying to make is that chiropractic is not just about health function. EVERYTHING depends upon good nerve supply: Personal balance, moods, how well you relate to your family, how well you relate to your neighbors, how well you drive a car, how well you drive a golf ball… Every single factor of life suffers when there’s a subluxation, and these idiot chiropractors spend their lives treating backaches and headaches.”
REGGIE GOLD, D.C.
The above is a powerful statement, isn’t it? Reading that you may ask yourself what conditions is chiropractic good for? Honestly, the answer is NONE! Chiropractic is not for sick people, it’s for PEOPLE. When the body starts to go wrong, it very often doesn’t show symptoms for 20 – 30 years. People don’t go to a doctor of any kind until they have symptoms, but when you have a vertebral subluxation is when you need chiropractic care, and that’s way before you have symptoms.
People don’t know they are sick until they have a symptom, that’s when they seek help. They seek medical care or chiropractic care to help treat and cure the symptoms, and very often, that’s waiting until it’s too late.
We probably damage our nerve system or spine as infants. How many times a day does a child learning to walk, fall? Probably hundreds, and during those falls they do spinal damage, affecting their nerve system, yet they don’t notice any change or changes are not able to be communicated. So the child grows up deprived of a good nerve supply. There is a law of physiology that if you don’t use it, you lose it. If you don’t use all of your nerve system, you lose your capacity to use it.
Chiropractic is about keeping your nerve system working perfectly your entire life, whether you’re sick or not. People tend to go to a chiropractor just when they are sick; they are looking for a miracle cure. They don’t realize that by the time they need a miracle cure they’ve probably had their nerve damage for the 20 years.
The smart way to use a chiropractor is to find one you like and to go weekly for life, and for God’s sake, don’t go to a chiropractor looking to get well while leaving your kids home to get sick.
People ask why they should bring their kids to a chiropractor. Well, if you leave them subluxated, they’ll possibly get sick, and more important than that, their whole life is affected by the subluxation. Subluxation doesn’t only allow you to get sick; if you have a subluxation it stops the efficiency of the body from living up to its potential on all levels.
You are always better off without a vertebral subluxation than with one; period. I don’t want you to see me or any other chiropractor for the treatment of disease.
What is this subluxation I keep talking about? Your nerves start in the brain and run down inside the spine and branch out between the vertebra and go to every part of your body. Your nerve system can be damaged due to a subluxation, which is a misalignment in your spine causing a distortion of your spinal cord and nerves. This can be caused by any sort of stress, be it physical, chemical or emotional. Even a sneeze with your head turned the wrong way can cause a subluxation. Every nerve in the body runs through the spine, so if it is twisted and distorted, it must cause nerve damage. If you have nerve damage, your body parts are unable to coordinate or work properly and efficiently.
One small hyphen distinguishes a genuine Chiropractor from any, and I mean ANY, other person in the universe who in any way provides a service applied to the body. MDs, Osteopaths, EMTs, paramedics, Rolfers, Massagers, Nutritionists, Nurses, EKG Techs, x-ray techs, etc. all, and I mean ALL, provide a service that is related to some therapeutic objective. A genuine Chiropractor provides services that pursue no therapeutic objective. We seek to find, classify, and provide effective means to bring about the correction of Vertebral Subluxation, solely and totally to remove the cause of Dis-ease. Dis-ease is defined as a lack of harmony, coordination, homeostasis, and/or balance within the organism.
People should go to the chiropractor as soon as they’re born and keep going for the rest of their lives to have their spines checked. My fees are based on having your spine checked regularly, not on symptom relief. If you went to a medical doctor to have your symptoms treated, the fee for one visit could be in the hundreds, whereas I’m not treating your symptoms. I’m checking and adjusting you (if needed), weekly, so I charge an affordable monthly fee through my membership practice.
I can’t realistically put a price on what I do, and if I was to attempt to do that and charge as such, the investment would be something very few, if any, could afford. Instead I choose to make chiropractic accessible to everyone who is looking to get their spines checked and adjusted regularly for the right reasons. You can’t do anything at your best if you’re subluxated!
