Chiropractic: The Best Kept Secret in
Health Care
The above headline came from a web site called www.parentsplace.com
. This web site covers many issues in parenting but seems to
do an exceptional job with chiropractic. In this particular
article the authors do a good job of describing the chiropractic
philosophy when they say, "Chiropractic is based on a
vitalistic philosophy, which recognizes simply, that life, and
therefore health, is an expression of an inner wisdom -- an innate
intelligence animating every cell within our genetic design."
In that article they go on to quote Deepak Chopra, M.D., "Intelligence
is present everywhere in our bodies ... our own inner intelligence
is far superior to any we can try to substitute from the
outside..."
In addition this web site covers additional areas of
chiropractic with relationships to children. The article
gives links to each of those subjects which are worth reading.
These additional articles are: Is Chiropractic Just for Back
Pain?, Subluxations and Stress, What is a Chiropractic
Adjustment?, Chiropractic Care During Pregnancy, The First
Subluxation, Kids and Chiropractic, Ear Infections, Colic, Sudden
Infant Death Syndrome, and The Future.
The authors of the article, Deb Donovan and Bob VanMetter, sum
up the chiropractic approach in a concise and exact manner.
"Chiropractors work with the spine, not necessarily because
its the source of neck and back pain, but because it houses and
protects the central nervous system -- that system which monitors,
controls and regulates all body function, allowing the body to
adapt to its environment, both internal and external."
