What a Day!

I love my job! I get to meet all kinds of people who have been spending lots of time and money doing the wrong things besides getting to the root of the problem. I find out 99% of the time that I can help them, and then I correct the underlying problem - the atlas subluxation complex (the head isn't on straight). Then I get to watch and study them as they go through the healing process. About 4% of the time, the healing process is not a happy time in the beginning, but for the rest of my patients it is a gradual improvement. I see changes that seem like the old injury from 20 or 40 years ago is present again. I see changes that seem like we lost the good adjustment - but on close inspection, is only an aggravation. Sometimes we see alarming symptoms that tell me the misalignment factors changed and we better get a new x-ray pronto cause the doc is adjusting on the wrong angle!
Sometimes my work is similar to the orchestra conductor who crafts harmony out of a stage full of individual (and sometimes cranky) musicians. But what a fine sound we develop! When you're ready for an improvement, we're here to help.

Today's Shocker!

I had a patient today who reported that after her first adjustment of earlier this week, her tinnitis vanished with a disconcerting silence. It came back again after a couple of days, but less noisy than before. Can you trace the possible events that transpired within the organs of hearing? Do you know how the delicate tissues within the ear, and all through the head, are nourished by nerves that supply oxygen and other materials necessary for good function? Do you know where those nerves pass from their origins? The answer lies within the training of every chiropractor and everyone who studies the nerve system thoroughly. The chiropractic curriculum trains the doctor how to manage the nerve system for maximum function. Are you ready to take the steps necessary to regain maximum function?

Can You Help...?

I was going over a partial list of things that have improved with people who are under care here at 1st Step Chiropractic. Listen to these comments...my hair is growing out thicker, my fingernails are not splitting anymore, I thought I had a brain tumor but now it's better, I was a candidate for hip and knee surgery but now I'm not, my vision has improved, my hearing has improved, my varicose veins disappeared, my speech has cleared up, I can do the things I enjoy, my pain is going away.
It is common to think that this work of correcting the imbalanced spine is all about pain reduction. When you see the array of things that the body can heal or at least organize on a higher level, you wonder if there is a deeper principle involved. Well, YES, there is a deeper principle. It is the restoration principle and it is related to the task of getting the biology of the vertebrate mechanism functioning normally again.
Are you ready to get started on the program of restoring normal function for yourself and your family?
