We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected
by a thousand invisible threads, and along these sympathetic
fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us as results.

Why
Do Chiropractors Correct Subluxations?
A subluxation is a distortion in your body structure that
causes damage to your spine,
muscles, joints, nerves, discs and other tissues and organs.
But what's worse is that subluxations interfere with
your overall body function
- our balance, energy level, healing ability and physical
and mental well-being.
|
|
|
| |

|
Subluxations can occur at any age. Many even occur at birth
due to the stress of delivery. Subluxations can result from
falls, accidents, poor sleeping positions, overwork -
even emotional stress and environmental toxins can shock your
body into developing subluxations.
Chiropractors provide a wonderful service. We locate and
correct (adjust) subluxations, removing stress from your body
and mind, unleashing energy, restoring balance and permitting
you to live your life closer to your physical and mental potential.
When you have subluxations it's as if you are living
life with the parking break on.
Do you have a subluxation in your body? Unless you are seeing
a chiropractor for periodic checkups, the answer is probably
"yes."
If you or anyone you know is sick and tired, living with
all kinds of drugs and low energy, do them a favor -
tell them to come in for a chiropractic checkup. They'll
be very grateful to you.

Diet Soda Makes You Fat It's ironic
that people are drinking "diet" drinks and gaining
weight. However, for many years researchers have been saying
that "diet" beverages don't make you lose
weight. |
|
 |
| In addition, artificial
sweeteners such as aspartame (Nutrasweet™) have been linked
not only to weight gain but to brain tumors, vision problems,
memory loss and many other health problems as well. Splenda™
has been linked to kidney problems.
There is no safe artificial sweetener!
If you put Nutrasweet™ (for example)
on the ground, ants will walk around it. Try it! If that isn't
a warning, nothing is.
The stuff sweetened with high fructose corn syrup isn't
good for you either! See the latest at http://body.aol.com/news/articles/

Keep
Your Children Happy and Healthy - Don't Vaccinate
Them
More and more research is revealing what many healthcare
providers have known for decades: non-vaccinated children
are healthier, both neurologically and immunologically, than
vaccinated children. There is no proof vaccines create healthier
children (quite the opposite). |
| World-famous
medical historian and researcher Dr. Harris Coulter discussed
vaccine damage in his classic work: Vaccination, Social Violence
and Criminality:
Probably 20% of American children - one youngster
in five - suffers from "development disability"....
A large proportion of the millions of US children and adults
suffering from autism, seizures, mental retardation, hyperactivity,
dyslexia, and other shoots or branches of the hydra-headed
entity called "development disabilities", owe
their disorders to one or another of the vaccines against
childhood diseases. (1)
A survey commissioned by the group Generation Rescue compared
vaccinated and non-vaccinated children in nine counties in
Oregon and California. Among more than 9,000 boys age 4-17,
the survey found vaccinated boys were two and a half times
(155%) more likely to have neurological disorders. Vaccinated
boys age 11-17 were 158% more likely to have neurological
disorders, 317% more likely to have ADHD, and 112% more likely
to have autism than non-vaccinated boys. (2)

People
in Committed Relationships
Are Happier People in committed relationships
are happier than people who aren't, and married people may
be the happiest of all.
People who are married report the highest levels of well-being,
regardless of whether they are happily married or not. Next
are people co-habitating in committed relationships, followed
by those in stable relationships and those casually dating.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
 |
The study in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships,
surveyed 691 young adults. Researchers assessed self-esteem,
life satisfaction, general happiness and distress symptoms.
Married people reported the highest well-being and happiness
while people who dated infrequently or not at all reported the
lowest.
Researchers say the study confirms that having a romantic
relationship makes both men and women happier, and the stronger
the relationship's commitment, the greater the well-being
and happiness of the partners.
The finding that people in relatively unhappy marriages appeared
to benefit from being married perhaps stemmed from the stability,
commitment and social status of the relationship, the researchers
say.
"In general, people appear to feel better about themselves
and their lives when they move into a more committed relationship,"
says lead researcher Kamp Dush. "Some commitment appears
to be good, but more commitment appears to be even better."

Fourteen Things That It Took Me Over
50 Years To Learn by Dave Barry
1. Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping
pill and a laxative on the same night.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. If you had to
identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not
achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that
word would be "meetings."
3. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and
"mental illness."
4. People who want to share their religious views with you
almost never want you to share yours with them.
5. You should not confuse your career with your life.
6. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.
7. Never lick a steak knife.
8. The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.
9. You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and
compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time.
10. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely
suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see
an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.
11. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other
people to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is
age eleven.
12. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless
of age, gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background,
is that, deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above-average
drivers.
13. A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is
not a nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention.
It never fails.)
14. Your friends love you anyway.

Chiropractic and Spinal Research
No matter what condition a person may have they need chiropractic
care to ensure their body is working without subluxations. If you
have any specific questions please feel free to contact us.
Bedwetting, menstrual cramps and stomach problems.
Patients suffering from bedwetting, menstrual cramps and ulcer
pains/indigestion were given chiropractic care. MDs performed pap
tests, pelvic exams and upper GI studies but could find nothing
wrong.
From the study:
"A total of eight subjects in each category were selected
and two in each category were not treated (to be used as control
cases). No one in the study had any back pain.
"All cases of pelvic pain and severe cramping of the uterus
had stopped. All women experienced three menstrual cycles through
the duration of this study. "The bedwetting category demonstrated
50% of the children had stopped bedwetting early in the program,
25% of the children had a 50% reduction in the frequency of occurrences
and 25% showed no improvement.
"All the patients in the gastric category except one responded
to chiropractic care." (1a) Improved quality of life. This
preliminary study revealed that those under chiropractic showed
significant improvements in physical well-being, mental/emotional
state, stress management, life enjoyment and overall quality of
life, during an average of 5.5 months of chiropractic care. (2a)
Words of wisdom

We cannot be happy if we expect to live all the time at the highest
peak of intensity. Happiness is not a matter of intensity, but of
balance and order and rhythm and harmony.
- Thomas Merton
Professional Athletes and Chiropractic

Tiger Woods and Barry Bonds use regular chiropractic care. So
do Andy Roddick, Lance Armstrong and oodles of professional athletes
in just about every sport. Why? They achieve better balance, improved
coordination, faster recovery from injury, prevention of injuries,
more energy and strength, among other benefits - all without
drugs!
More professional athletes use chiropractic than
ever before. The journal Chiropractic Economics reported that
over 95% of teams in the NFL use chiropractors as a regular part
of player care.
Barry Bonds, one of the all-time best baseball players, has a
personal chiropractor who travels to games. Bonds reportedly said,
"I think it should be mandatory to see a chiropractor."
Can You See a Subluxation on an
X-ray?

Using a variety of tools, chiropractors analyze
patients' spines for subluxations. An X-ray is one common
tool used to locate evidence of subluxation damage and body misalignment.
You can't see all the aspects of a subluxation on X-ray
since you can't see "soft" tissues like nerves
on X-ray and a subluxation affects nerve health.
A subluxation can cause degeneration of the bones, disc and body
structure which can often be seen on an X-ray. Subluxation degeneration
damage starts shortly after a subluxation occurs but it may take
months or years for the damage to show up on an X-ray. That's
why it's important to get yourself to a chiropractor whenever
you've had an experience or trauma that might have caused
a subluxation.
