If there’s one group of individuals who need chiropractic more than any other it’s mothers-to-be.

As a woman’s hormones change, her ligaments become looser and her body structure can become distorted. Chiropractic has been a blessing for countless pregnant women for over a century. Pregnant? Get a chiropractic checkup; it’ll help you and your new baby and help ensure an easier delivery.

Who knows better?

Over $30 billion in over 30 years has been thrown at a “War on Cancer.” So far it looks like cancer has won. Similarly, all the money spent on an AIDS cure has not resulted in a single life saved (medically). Why, you ask; because a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. For example, we think we can artificially “improve” the immune system so we “tinker” with it using vaccines. The result is an epidemic of autism, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, allergies, Alzheimer’s, cancer, asthma, ear infections, vision problems and many other conditions.

In the same way, we think we can artificially make someone healthy by pumping synthetic drugs into them. We think the body is making a mistake when it creates symptoms and we try to suppress the symptoms rather than correct the cause (i.e. build up natural resistance, remove subluxations and other interferences).

But.there is another way: Respect the body and observe what it is doing in sickness and health. This is known as Empirical healthcare.

The body can tell us how to be healthy. Why do so many people not get cancer? Why do so many people not get AIDS – even if they have the risk factors? Why do so many people not get the flu? What makes people recover from horrible diseases while others succumb and die? This is what needs to be studied: health! Chiropractic is based on Empirical health philosophy. Simply stated: rather than invade the body with artificial drugs and procedures, we try to learn what it wants to do and support it; we respect the body’s symptoms. For example, if the body creates a fever we don’t suppress it with drugs, but rather permit the body to disinfect, cleanse and heal – and the body will be healthier and stronger as a result. Relying on drugs makes us weaker. For example, studies show that antibiotics for ear infections lead to more ear infections. Also, consider that children who have more infectious diseases of childhood have lower cancer risk and less heart attacks as adults.
