Dorlands Medical Dictionary Defines Health as
  • A condition of OPTIMUM
  • physical, social,
  • mental well being,
  • and not merely
  • the absence of
  • diseases or infirmities.

Health is more than just feeling good.

What controls all the physical aspects of health?
  • Grays anatomy, the accepted authority on the
    human body, states, the nervous system controls
    all of the organs, systems, and cells of the
    body
  • It is critical that the messages from the brain
    travel down the spinal cord, through the spinal
    openings, and reach the body systems without
    interference.

Health Formula
  • Websters Dictionary states,
  • Health is when
  • all of the organs
  • are functioning at
  • 100 all of the time.

Health is not Drugs or Surgery.

Health TimeFunctionParts
  • Can you replace missing Parts?
  • Can you Push back time?
  • We can improve function!
  • Removing factors
  • that interfere with
  • function improves
  • health.

Chiropractic improves function.

What causes interference ?
  • Chemical, physical, mental stress affect the
    bodys ability to function at 100.
  • Chiropractors focus on how these interferences
    affect the nervous system.
  • Subluxations cause interference.
  • Chiropractors look for and remove subluxations.

10
How does Chiropractic keep you healthy?
  • Chiropractic does not cure.
  • Only your body can cure itself.
  • Chiropractic, by removing interference
  • from the nervous system,
  • allows your body to
  • function at a
  • higher level of its
  • potential.

The Body is a self-maintaining,
self-correcting organism.

  • A Comparative Study of the Health Status of
    Children Raised Under the Health Care Models of
    Chiropractic and Allopathic Medicine - Wendy M
    van Breda, D C and Juan M van Breda, D C
  • Abstract
  • Two hundred pediatricians and two hundred
    chiropractors that were randomly selected were
    surveyed to determine what, if any, differences
    were to be found in the health status of their
    respective children as raised under the different
    health care models.
  • The results of the study confirms the benefits of
    the chiropractic model of care on the health
    status of children.

12
  • Research Team Finds Body Pathway , Which
    Could Help in Treating Disease
  • A research team from the University of Calgary
    was represented by one of its members, Dr. Ron
    Mathison at the Visiting Scholar Program at LACC
    last March. Dr. Mathison spoke on The Role of the
    Sympathetic Nervous System in Systemic
    Immunological Function. The teams research in
    this field was reported in the Edmonton Journal
    By Karen Sherlock, Staff Writer
  • An Alberta research team has discovered a
    pathway between the nervous system and the
    immune system that may have broad implications
    for preventing and treating disease. The findings
    lend strong weight to what chiropractors have
    been claiming for decades says one of the
    researchers that the health of the nervous
    system and the spine can have a direct effect on
    the bodys ability to fend off disease.

13
  • The effects of Specific Upper Cervical
    Adjustments on the CD4 counts of HIV Positive
    Patients.
  • The effect of specific upper cervical adjustments
    on the immune system CD4 cell counts of HIV
    positive individuals was measured by CD4/mm3 in
    the blood. These tests were preformed by the
    patients independent medical center where they
    were under medical supervision for the condition.
    The measured CD4 counts in the regular group were
    dramatically increased over the counts of the
    control group. A 48 increase in the CD4 cells
    was demonstrated over the six months duration of
    the study for the adjusted group.

14
Misuse of Antibiotics is causing disastrous
effects on public health.
  • Antibiotics do not kill viruses.
  • Bacteria have adapted to their former
    enemy, and now not only resist
    antibiotics, but actually eat
    some as food.
  • Bacteria are getting stronger,
  • while our immune
  • systems are getting
  • weaker, having relied on
  • antibiotics for defense.

There is a strong link between regular
chiropractic care increased immune system
function.
15
Medical facts
  • Existing research offers no compelling evidence
    that children with acute ear infections routinely
    given antimicrobials have a shorter duration of
    symptoms, fewer occurrences, or better long term
    outcomes than children who did not receive them.
    (British Medical Journal)
  • Up to two-thirds of all people who go to MDs
    for Pain related problems are misdiagnosed.
    (AMA Science news July 17, 1999)

Causes of preventable death in the United States.
  • 1- Cigarette Smoking.
  • 2- Alcohol
  • 3- Medical Malpractice--Accounts for 80,000
    reported deaths per year 1 death
    every 7 minutes!
  • 4- Traffic Fatalities
  • 5- Firearms
    Ralph Nader - Public Citizen -
    May/June 94

17
More Medical facts
  • 180,000 people die each year partly as a result
    of Iatrogenic (doctor caused) injury, --the
    equivalent of three jumbo jet crashes every two
    days. (JAMA-12/21/94)


  • Prescription drugs put 8.8 million people into
    hospitals each year, and account for up to 28 of
    all hospital admissions.
    (American Medical News)

18
Helping your body to function better Chiropractic
actually improves your Quality of Life.
  • Scientific research studies published in the
    British Medical Journal concluded, long term
    Chiropractic care has a direct effect on the
    Quality of Life (Aug 1995)
  • Prof. F. Splendoris research in Italy (87)
    concluded, A most meaningful indicator of the
    effectiveness of Chiropractic is the improvement
    it produces in the quality of life, not only
    because of its curative effect but also thanks to
    its preventative and rehabilitative functions.

19
How do you measure the nervous systems level of
function?
  • Blood tests, irritability, energy levels are
    affected if the nervous system is not functioning
    properly.
  • SEMG, EEG, Bilateral Weight Scales, Thermal
    Scans, Heart Rate, Hand Temperature, Galvanic
    Skin Response Visual Patterns are some of the
    methods and instrumentation used to determine the
    level of neurological function.

  • Gravity, Posture and the Nervous system
  • Better than 90 percent of the energy output of
    the brain is used in relating to the physical
    body in its gravitational field. The more
    mechanically distorted a person is, the less
    energy available for thinking, metabolism and
    healing.
  • Roger Sperry, Ph.D - Nobel Prize for Brain
    Research

23
Removes interference from the nervous system
  • Methods vary from light touch, to machine
    controlled contact.
  • The intent of an adjustment is
  • to remove interference from
  • the nervous system,
  • thereby allowing a
  • restoration of
  • normal function so
  • that the body can
  • return to its optimum
  • health.

Every cell in the body is controlled by the
nervous system.

25
When do subluxations start?
  • Before birth - Genetic - trauma
  • Birth - C-section or forceps deliveries
  • German medical research (Gutmann)
  • suggests that one of the causes
  • of middle ear infections is
  • birth trauma.
  • Gutmann recommends that
  • Chiropractors be
  • consulted to adjust
  • babies, because Chiropractic
    deals with the cause of the
    problem.

Falls, fights, accidents sports injuries
accumulate as layers of damage.
26
How often should children be checked for
subluxations?
  • Dentists discovered that regular daily brushing
    flossing resulted in less cavities.
  • Today we understand that a healthy
  • childhood gives you a better
  • opportunity for health in later life.
  • Research now shows that many
  • injuries can cause permanent
  • damage if not addressed
  • within 3 weeks.
  • Weekly Chiropractic check-ups
  • reduce this risk.

The goal of this office is to have your kids
healthier than you are.
27
How do I know if my family or I have subluxations?
  • If your goal is optimum health, waiting until
    something hurts is too late.
  • Asking your MD about Chiropractic is like asking
    a plumber about an electrical problem.
  • The best way to know if you or your family
    need Chiropractic care, is to make an
    appointment for a Chiropractic exam.

28
  • Whom do you know
  • that needs information
  • about Chiropractic
  • and this office,
  • because they are not
  • experiencing the
  • quality of life
  • they deserve.

29
  • The Community Health
    Attitudes Challenge
  • Your Choices
  • 1. Allow Chiropractic the opportunity to
    improve your Quality of Life.
  • 2. Share this important information with
    someone who needs to improve their Quality of
    Life.
