The 33 Chiropractic Principles! (click to view)

When you were born, your body knew exactly what to do to keep you healthy. And it still does!

It knew, and knows, how fast your heart should beat, how often your lungs should breath, how you should digest your food, and a million other things about it's own functions. Your body knows all this because it possesses what chiropractors call Innate Intelligence. This is the knowledge our bodies are born with... knowledge that no school can teach!

Instructions from your brain are sent to every organ and cell in your body. If the instructions are received and followed properly, your body is able to reach and maintain it's optimum health.

Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your brain, spinal cord and the rest of your nerves control every aspect of your body. Hinder the vital nerve links between your brain and your body, and ill health will result.

Vertebral Subluxation causes nerve tissue to stretch, choke or become irritated. Leading to numbness, weakness or the under-performance of organs and tissues. This distort nerve messages between your body and your brain. Resulting in Hyperactive organ function, high blood pressure, symptoms . . . . . . . or even pain.

The medical approach puts chemicals into your bloodstream to artificially change the way your body works. Laxatives to speed up elimination. Antacids to reduce stomach acid. Besides the fatal mistakes, side effects and possible kidney damage, drugs often ignore the real cause of the problem.

Like the red light on you car's dashboard, symptoms tell you it's time to check something in your internal machinery. For the followers of the Medical Philosophy of Disease, these warnings are treated by attempting to fix the symptoms and not the cause. These people believe something from the outside will change something on the inside. This state of mind is dangerous to one's health.

Let's go back to the car analogy. Say the oil light comes on. What are you going to do? Pull into your nearest service station and add oil in the engine or are you going to disconnect the light so you won't see it? The logical answer doesn't require much thought. Back to your body. If you get a pain in your head, are you going to check out the cause and correct it? Or are you going to take a pain killer and assume the problem is gone because the symptom has been alleviated?

When you realize your body is somewhat similar to a machine, then it's obvious what the answer has to be. You recognize the need to fix the internal mechanism so the machine is working well again. That's the Philosophy of Health. It's the belief that health comes from within. A properly functioning body can do everything naturally that pills attempt to do chemically. Furthermore, the body knows when to heal, how to heal and when to stop healing and go back on maintenance.
