Things Your Parents, Did Not Know About Chiropractic!
We learn many new facts and bits of information every day. For example, when we turn on the radio or television, someone is usually speaking about a current event, a past event, new research, or new products that promise amazing results. We even learn information by watching game shows on television that test our knowledge, and compare it to a 5th grader.
We learn from our friends, on the job from our boss and other employees and from our parents and grandparents. We also learn from every professional that we hire – our dentist, medical doctor, chiropractor, lawyer, accountant, website master, and personal trainer.
As researchers discover more and more knowledge, our knowledge has to be updated. Remember when you were a child taught to wash your hands with bar soap? Years later, there was a shift to anti-bacterial soaps. And now, the latest research is that good old regular bar soap is really the best way to get our hands clean and keep the bacterial count low.
Have you noticed that there are gaps in your knowledge about how to do things “right” or “better”? For example, years ago when your parents tucked you in bed when you had a fever with a dose of aspirin and covered you with a light blanket. You slept on a flat pillow and a few stuffed animals surrounded you. They believed they were doing everything they could do to help you get better. Now knowledge has progressed to the point where we know that it’s possible to burn out a fever by piling up the blankets and taking some anti-infectious herbs. We know that the flat pillow may have been okay for you as a young child, but as your body grew, the pillow width should also grow to fit the curve in your neck.
There are time gaps in our knowledge and some of these gaps may be contributing to you not recovering from whatever illness you suffer from.
As your chiropractic physician, I have been well educated as a health myth buster, ready to fill in your time gaps in knowledge! I keep up-to-date on the latest research findings and love to educate my patients about how to stay healthy. It’s only when you’re healthy that I’m happy!
