HOW A DEAF AND BLIND GIRL BECAME FAMOUS
HOW A DEAF AND BLIND GIRL BECAME FAMOUS
"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved. " -Helen Keller
Although Helen Keller was born perfectly healthy, she was left completely blind and deaf when she suffered an illness at the age of 18 months. For five years she was isolated from the world, alone in the darkness. Then, with the help of Anne Sullivan, a special teacher, Helen fought back against her handicap.
"Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them, but do not let them master you," she said.
Helen Keller did not shut herself off. She learned to communicate. She graduated from Radcliffe University and went onto take an honored place in society. She never pitied herself; she never gave up. She explained: "The marvelous richness of human experience would lose something of rewarding joy if there were no limitations to overcome. The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful were there no dark valleys to traverse. "
YOU ARE NOT A VICTIM!!!
You are not a victim of circumstance,
You are not a victim of illness,
You are not a victim of any limitation.
In fact, quite the contrary…
You have received an unlimited capacity to heal.
You have no limits to how high you can climb.
You have God given ability to overcome any barriers or obstacles in the way of being successful in any early endeavor you choose.
Why do you keep hearing this from your Chiropractor you ask?
Because thousands of research projects and millions of case studies have proven...
CHIROPRACTIC IS THE ONLY HEALING SCIENCE DESIGNED TO RELEASE AND RESTORE THE NATURAL STRENGTHS OF THE HUMAN BODY AND IT'S ABILITY TO HEAL AND MAINTAIN ITSELF WITHOUT THE USE OF ANY OUTSIDE, MAN-MADE PRODUCTS LIKE DRUGS, SURGERY, THERAPY, AND SUPPLEMENTS.
Chiropractic gives you nothing to get well.
We just give you back what God already gave you.

THE PIG STORY...or the story of Pig-headedness
THE PIG STORY
...or the story of Pig-headedness
One day, a woman was driving down a treacherously curved road. While approaching an especially threatening curve, a large truck approached her in the opposite lane. While passing her, the truck driver leaned out his window and yelled Pig! Pig! The woman immediately took offense as she presumed to know why the truck driver had yelled.
She turned from the truck just in time to see herself smashing into a pig in the middle of the road!
The point is, as Albert Einstein said, "'Your current state of mind brought you where you are now." If you plan to improve your life or your health you must change roads, or at least change lanes. Drop any assumptions.
"You cannot correct a problem at the
same level of thinking you were at
when you created the problem."
Everyday, somebody will visit their doctor whose advice they were following for years, and he will tell them he's afraid they have Cancer or some serious illness. Rather than questioning the intelligence of following this advice right into the early grave, they will ask, "What do recommend I do??????”
We spend more money and more technology than ever before in healthcare, yet we are the sickest and most unhappy we have ever been. Yet we continue to follow the same course of treatments, only changing in order to take even more drugs or make use of even more technology. ????
NATURAL CHIROPRACTIC IS A SAFE, SANE ALTERNATIVE.
"If you continue to think as you always thought,
you will continue to get what you always got."

WHAT CHIROPRACTIC IS...
WHAT CHIROPRACTIC IS...
A healthcare system in which the spine is checked for the presence of vertebral subluxation in an effort to prevent the development of sickness and disease and the underdevelopment of life.
Vertebral subluxations cause nervous system interference, the major contributing cause of all sickness and disease, and the symptoms of sickness and disease.
If a subluxation is found by the Chiropractor, a specific chiropractic adjustment is performed to remove the subluxation. This alleviates the pressure on the nerve so that the individual is clear of nervous system interference and can once again function normally at her or his God-given, inborn potential or 100% expression of life.
WHAT CHIROPRACTIC Is NOT...
The treatment of sickness and disease or the symptoms of sickness and disease. The most useless thing any doctor can do for you is to alleviate your symptoms or cover up a problem to make you think you are well. Symptomatic relief, whether by drug or Adjustment does no earthly good to anyone. Symptomatically free or people who feel good so they think they are healthy have a nasty habit of dropping dead.
Continue Chiropractic well-care adjustments after your symptoms are gone to continue to keep the life giving nerves free from pressure and interference for as long as you want to stay well, truly well!
Life is a Gift from God.
What YOU make of Life is our Gift to Him.

SYMPTOMS
SYMPTOMS
The Good, The Bad, or The Ugly?
FEVER
Kills the bacteria and virus
Slows down reproduction of virus and bacteria Speeds up chemical reactions in the body to fight infection and get the body back to normal
Promotes the production of cancer fighting agent Interferon
DIARRHEA
Elimination of poisons, bacteria and germs from your blood
HEADACHE
Warning that their is an urgent problem in the body
COUGHING. SNEEZING AND
RUNNING NOSE
Expellation of excess germs and toxins Sluffing off of the old mucous lining to replace it with a newer healthy one.
PAIN AND STIFFNESS Acts as a natural brace by stopping normal movement Warns of an injury to prevent further damage
Alarm that lets you know there is sickness in the body.
The New Principle of Chiropractic
IN OUR SOCIETY THE OLD HEALTH MODEL WE ALL GREW UP WITH SAYS:
-The body is dumb
-Doctors are smart
-Symptoms are bad and should be suppressed
How is it possible that God gave us a body, which creates 3 million new cells every minute and controls and coordinates numerous organs and systems that could be dumb. When we use drugs to suppress symptoms, we interfere with the body's natural methods of getting itself well.
IN CHIROPRACTIC, WE UNDERSTAND THAT:
-The inner body is smart, created in the image and likeness of God.
-Doctors do not have all the answers.
-Symptoms are your body's way of telling you there is something happening that needs your attention or it is the body healing itself.
There is only one healer. It is not a pill or a shot. It is your body itself and God-given intelligence within. Your body always knows what to do unless it is interfered with. Chiropractic attempts to remove this interference. Chiropractic does not treat the symptom or the disease. Chiropractic does not cure the disease, for this can only be accomplished by nature from within.
"There exists an intelligence in man far greater than any intelligence
that exists outside man. Each patient is his own best doctor. "
-Albert Scweitzer, M.D.

UNLIMITED POWER
UNLIMITED POWER
There is an unlimited power that resides within us all. God exists inside each and every one of us to guide us, heal us, keep us, and maintain us in existence.
If this is true, than a vertebral subluxation (nerve interference) is the most dangerous thing that could happen to anyone. Vertebral subluxation interferes with the life power flowing to every cell of your being.
Again... There is only one healer. It is not a pill, shot, prescription, Chiropractor, or doctor of any kind. It is the body itself and God from within. We need no help to get well or stay well, just no interference. Chiropractic removes the interference.

"WHAT YOU DO TO THE LEAST OF MY BRETHREN, YOU DO TO ME"
"WHAT YOU DO TO THE LEAST
OF MY BRETHREN, YOU DO TO ME"
Love the earth and sun and the animals, Despise riches; give alms to everyone that asks, Stand up for stupid and crazy, Devote your income and labor to others,
Hate tyrants; argue in favor of God, Have patience and indulgence toward people,
Take off your hat to nothing known or unknown of the world or to any man or number of men, Go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, Reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem.
-Walt Whitman
Draw your own conclusions on information you have learned and run through your own computer. Take advice, not orders. Realize most people are unhealthy and unhappy and we are following their direction.
Keep the vision you are floating on a raft and suddenly you look up and you are 200 feet from Niagara Falls and you have no engine and no oars. What can you do? Screaming for help is useless over the roar of the falls. Paddling or swimming for the edge against monstrous currents would barely prolong what is now inevitable, painful death.
The best way to prepare for the future is to invent it.
Life responds to deserve not to need. Those who sew shall reap. Those who take the time to restore their spine and nerve system back to normal and make other natural health decisions will find themselves well in the present and future. Those who do not won't.
"Trust in God, don't eat fries, get adjusted, and exercise
makes a person healthy, wealthy, and wise." -JO

WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
The only Healthcare system that works to maximize the natural, God-given strengths of the human body and its capacity to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery.
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT CHIROPRACTIC
1.) WHAT IS AN ADJUSTMENT?
A chiropractic adjustment is given to align the subluxation to take pressure off the spinal cord and nerves. This will restore proper nerve supply to the body's organs and allow normal body function. An optimum functioning spine equals optimum health.
2.) HOW DOES ADJUSTMENT FEEL AND HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
Patients report that being adjusted feels great. However, in some cases the individual may be sore the first couple of times. An adjustment takes only a minute or two, but the vital nerve energy it releases can last for hours, days, or even weeks, depending on the stage of your care.
3.) IS CHIROPRACTIC SAFE?
While 2,000 people will die from aspirin this year and thousands more from surgery and drug reactions, chiropractic is safe. So safe that malpractice for chiropractors costs a fraction of what other types of physicians pay.
4.) WHAT RESEARCH HAS BEEN DONE ON CHIROPRACTIC?
Literally thousands of health studies, including research by the U.S. government, have shown that Chiropractic is beneficial in maximizing health, boosting immunity, relieving, the symptom of sickness and disease, and restoring normal, function back to the body.
5.) SHOULD I BE ADJUSTED IF I AM SICK?
An adjustment will help your body regain control and balance to better fight off your condition.
6.) CAN I BE ADJUSTED IF I HAVE HAD AN OPERATION ON MY SPINE OR HAVE OLD, WEAK, BRITTLE, OR BROKEN BONES?
There are many very gentle techniques that can be employed to assure proper safety for newborns to the elderly.
7.) CAN I BE ADJUSTED IF I AM PREGNANT?
For normal development of the baby and ease and safety of the birth, being adjusted during pregnancy is essential.
8.) CAN I ADJUST MYSELF?
Even chiropractors need chiropractors to adjust them. The worst spines are those of people who manipulate their own spines. Manipulation can even be dangerous. An adjustment moves a specific subluxation in a specific direction.

FIND OUT WHY TURNING OFF
FIND OUT WHY TURNING OFF
"THE MASTER SWITCH" CAN BE DEADLY!
"A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link"
Nearly all of us have heard the tragic story of Mr. Christopher Reeves (Superman).
After falling off his horse, the top vertebra in his spine was fractured and moved out of position, massively subluxated. What happened to Mr. Reeves is not uncommon. It is seen in emergency rooms every day. Although many of us have heard of these situations, few understand the dramatic truth it reveals about Chiropractic.
The top vertebra of the spine, the "atlas", is the area where the brain literally talks to the body. It is known in many cultures as the "Mouth of God." The atlas actually protects the brain stem. The brain stem controls all automatic functions that you never have to think about such as breathing, circulation, heart rate, and digestion. When in position, information flows from the brain to the body to totally control and regulate each and every organ, function, and action. If the atlas is out of position (subluxated), the body will function below 100%. How far below depends on how badly subluxated the atlas is and how Ions it has been subluxated.
In Mr. Reeves' case, the atlas subluxation almost completely blocked the brain from the body, so the symptoms are obvious. In everyone else, the atlas subluxation is not as significant, so the symptoms are not as obvious. However, a person's health is badly affected. With an atlas subluxation immunity drops, illness sets in, and energy begins to drop off due to malfunctioning of the organs.
That is why the atlas is called "The Master Switch". If it is subluxated, the power is off. After it is adjusted, THE POWER IS ON! That is why it is important that everyone have their atlas checked by a Chiropractor.

COMMITMENT
COMMITMENT
He worked by day, And toiled by night. He gave up play. And some delight. Dry books he read. New things to learn. And forged ahead, Success to earn. He plodded on with Faith and pluck; And when he won. Men called it luck.
Commitment is something few people truly understand. However, commitment separates the losers from the winners, the healthy from the unhealthy, the successful from the downtrodden, the happy from the unhappy, and the sinners from the saints.
COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE
I owe almost everything to football, which I have spent the greater part of my life in, and I have never lost my respect, my admiration, or my love for what I consider a great game. Each Sunday after the battle, one group savors a victory and another group wallows in the bitterness of defeat. The many hurts seem a small price to pay for having won, and there is no reason at all which is adequate for having lost.
For the winner there is 100% elation, 100% laughter, 100% fun. For the loser the only thing left is a 100% resolution and 100% determination. The game, I think, is a great deal like life. Every man makes his own personal commitment toward excellence and toward victory. Although you know ultimate victory can never be completely won, it must be pursued with all of one's might and each week there is a new encounter, each year a new challenge.
All of the rings and all of the money and all of the color and all of the display; they linger only in a memory. But the spirit, the will to win, the will to excel, these are the things that endure and these are the qualities, of course, that are so much more important than any of the events that occur.
I'd like to say that the quality of any man's life is a full measure of that man's personal commitment to excellence and to victory, regardless of what field he may be in. -Vines Lymbardi, NFL Coach
ANYTHING WORTH DOING, IS WORTH DOING RIGHT. COMMIT TO YOUR CHIROPRACTIC CARE, GETTING WELL,
AND STAYING WELL. THE QUALITY OF YOUR LIFE AND THE QUALITY OF YOUR CHARACTER DEPEND ON IT.
There are a lot of bright people in the world today. The real lest for them, however, will not be one of sheer intelligence but rather how much commitment they have to achievement. -John Glenn, Astronaut, United Stales Senator, Oldest Man in Space

IF YOU COULD SEE WHAT I'VE SEEN, IF YOU COULD HEAR WHAT I'VE HEARD
IF YOU COULD SEE
WHAT I'VE SEEN,
IF YOU COULD HEAR
WHAT I'VE HEARD
"Within us lies a God-given power and intelligence infinitely greater than anything outside of us."
YOU CAN GO:
Months without food;
Days without water;
Minutes without air;
And your whole life without exercise.
But without nerve supply you are instantly dead...
As the nerve system degenerates, so does life.
As the amount of nerve flow slows down, so do you.
As the quality of nerve flow diminishes, so does the quality of your life.
I have seen it a thousand times too many.
I have heard the horror stones a thousand times too many.
Study a science book and you will learn the nerve system totally controls all of life. Examine a model of a real spine and you will see there is little room for spinal misalignment before the nerve system is damaged and the flow of vital information coming from the brain is interfered with.
If you could only see what I've seen, the destruction of life and health that occurs with the subluxation of the spine.
If you could only hear the thousands of patients I have cared for who have said, "My life has simply slipped away." Then if you could only hear them say, "Thanks to God and Chiropractic I have got my life back."
If you could see what I have seen or hear what I have heard, what mother, father, son, or daughter would not hold my office up at gun point to see to it that their family was checked, before I left each night, for nerve damaging subluxations. If you only knew what I know.
PLEASE GET YOUR FAMILY CHECKED FOR SUBLUXATIONS.
WE DO NOT NEED IT, THEY DO.
