Chiropractors can only cure back pain
Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper function to the nervous system, allowing thehuman organism to be as healthy as it can be.
Health, News
With Dr Chris Davis  
February 20, 2015

Chiropractors can only cure back pain

Chiropractors can’t cure cancer and other diseases, except back pain. Neither can any medicine.

The key difference is that chiropractors do not claim to cure anything. And no medical doctor can cure anything, either.

If anyone tells you that they can cure any condition, you should get away from them as quickly as possible. They are selling snake oil. If you listen closely, they will only tell you their drugs are “managing” or “treating” or helping you “cope” with your condition. No medical cures.

Chiropractic adjustments help restore homeostasis (proper function) to the nervous system, allowing the human organism to be as healthy as it can be. The only cure to anything is proper function. You possess within you the power to heal and to cure yourself. You are the physician because you share the power that made the body, which also heals the body. When you get a cut or a broken bone, who heals it? The doctor? The nurse? The hospital? The antibiotics? The tetanus shots? The bandages? The casts? No. Your own body does. This is no secret, but it is not exactly broadcast by the drug industry.

Cancer is a great example of this self-healing. The average healthy individual can create upwards of 15,000 cancerous cells per day. Their healthy immune system identifies the mistake, deletes the mistake, and continues forward with healthy cells. The cure for cancer is a properly functioning body with all channels of communication open: nervous system, immune system, hormonal system, lymphatic system, etc.

Those who get regular chiropractic care begin to understand that the power that made the body heals the body. It is something you simply have to experience to understand. Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to boost the immune system abilities already inherent within the body, to the levels at which they were meant to operate.

We are always either heading towards health or heading away from health. Similarly, your body is either in a state of developing cancer cells or in a state of eliminating cancer cells. The direction in which you are heading is determined by the everyday choices that you are making.

Eat processed, unhealthy foods and the tendency is towards disease. Eat wholesome, natural, organic healthy foods and the tendency is towards health. Stay on the couch all day and watch TV – disease. Stay active and fit – health. Think angry, negative thoughts continually – disease. Think happy, healthy thoughts – health. Neglect your spinal misalignments which result in nerve interference – head towards disease. Maintain a well-adjusted healthy spine and nervous system – head towards health and full expression of life energy.

It’s that simple. And, once you discover it, you will wonder why you never tried it first. You will also tell everyone you care about that this option is available to them, and the fog of deception so craftily spread by medical propaganda will begin to dissipate. The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the lame will walk, and the good news will be shared with the poor – the prisoners will be set free.

And, for our wonderful medical colleagues who have discovered and who do understand and do not impede people’s informed decisions, we salute you.

Don’t forget to “Ask Your Chiropractor” every week where your questions may be published and answered in subsequent articles. Address questions to: Dr Chris Davis, the Spinal Mechanic at movethebone@gmail.com; or, Dr Michael Harvey, director, at dr.michael_harvey@yahoo.com or visit www.drharveychiropractic.com
