Non therapeutic objective straight chiropractic relates to one aspect of an ADIO world and life viewpoint, health and one aspect of health, the location analysis and correction of vertebral subluxation. Nowhere does it address disease, its prevention or cause.
Then what pray tell are the results or differences that may occur if ADIO is not maintained or is interrupted?
Would dis-ease be the only manifestation or is there more? No wait, subluxation causes dis-ease and dis-ease causes a disruption of ADIO. So if loss of ADIO is caused by dis-ease what are the effects of the loss, further dis-ease? AHHHHH, in-coordination / disharmony?
Aaaaand in-coordination / disharmony produce what? Like it or not I think the inference is there. Health and disease can not be separated, or can they?
Steve,
Chiropractic is about LIFE! –
– WHEN a person is free from VS, LIFE flows from ADIO without interference (ease) resulting in WHAT ever. –
– WHEN a person has VS, LIFE flows from ADIO with interference (dis-ease) resulting in WHAT ever. –
– It is the NTOSC WHO chooses to LACVS for a full expression of the innate forces of the innate intelligence of the body which is the chiropractic objective. –
– It is you WHO chooses WHAT your intent is WHEN you LACVS. If your intent is to practice the objective of chiropractic, “the results or differences” with or without VS are NOT your concerns. “Results and differences” are up to the innate intelligence of the body within the limitations of matter and time. 😉
Claude,
If you had a patient who was a smoker, would you suggest that they quit? We know that smoking can result in accelerated dehydration of the IVD and subsequent motor-unit instability. A condition like this could certainly reduce a patient’s internal resistance to external forces and increase their likelihood of subluxation.
If this were true, would you inform a patient of this and suggest they quit smoking?
Eric,
No I would not. –
In my office, it is I WHO chooses to LACVS and I teach them the chiropractic principles. That keeps me quite busy.
Hey Eric,
How do you know the desire to smoke is not one of these “adaptive conditions” you spoke of that innate intelligence has created to offset a more serious problem?
Claude,
I’m confused..I guess this would imply that there is no guarantee that the body will function better without vs’s interference to ii?
For a person who asks what to expect when under care and no knowledge of chiropractic, do you say to them that the “Results and differences” are up to the innate intelligence of the body within the limitations of matter and time?
Do you/can you tell them what they can expect?
Don,
The understanding of chiropractic is a process that requires time. –
– For a person without knowledge of chiropractic, I will give them orientation #1 ( I have 3) and I will ask them if they would prefer to go through life with subluxations or without subluxations. Most of them answer that they would prefer to go through life without subluxations. Then, I lead them to the adjusting room. It is as simple as that! 🙂 –
– Hopefully during the course of her participation in my office, that person will come to know the principles of chiropractic and it will her WHO will choose to become lifetime member or not. –
– Also, Don, the interference caused by VS is between matter and matter (brain cell and tissue cell), not between intelligence and matter. –
– Intelligence is always 100% (pri 7). The interference is with the TRANSMISSION of innate forces which are mental impulses (pri. 29) between brain cell and tissue cell. –
… it will BE her WHO will choose..
Dr. Lessard,
Thank you for correcting me, I meant…. when you say ““Results and differences” are up to the innate intelligence of the body within the limitations of matter and time”…does this imply that there is no guarantee that the body will function better without vs’s interference with the transmission of innate forces/mental impulses?
I am eager to hear yours or Dr. Strauss’ opinion on this.
Do you tell them what to expect as a result of going through life without subluxations?
How do you answer if they ask this? Sorry to pry but I am really curious.
I love the simplicity of your first orientation!!
Also curious…is there an orientation #2?? 🙂
Don, the PM needs to understand the brick in the bucket principle (dispalcement of fluids). We are only responsible for putting the Law of Life (expression of i thru m) into effect. The rest is up to the body and the L of M. You body will work better with a good nerve supply, greater innate f. How much better depends upon the matter. We are only responsible to put the law into action. The results depend upon the matter. We tell people your body will work better but we do not Know how much. It may produce the results they want or it may be negligible improvement (brick in the ocean). We don’t know and we cannot control that. I tell them I get my spine checked once a week but rarely see changes but I am not looking for or feel I need changes and am satisfied to know my body is working better. If the PM is looking for changes instead of or in addition to greater expression of i thru m, then they may want something else beside chiropractic.
Don,
The function of innate intelligence is to adapt universal forces and matter for use in the body, so that all parts of the body will have coordinated action for mutual benefit (pri.23). –
– There can be interference with the transmission of innate forces (pri.29). –
– Interference with the transmission of innate forces causes inco-ordination of dis-ease (pri.30). –
– Interference with transmission in the body is always directly or indirectly due to subluxation in the spinal column (pri.31). –
– Coordination is the principle of harmonious action of all the parts of an organism, in fulfilling their offices and purposes (pri.32) –
– Don, with these chiropractic principles, it is you WHO will use deductive reasoning. It you WHO will choose HOW to formulate your opinion. HOW you will answer people and WHAT you will say to them will “flow” from WHO your choose to BE. It is as simple as that! 🙂 –
– Yes there is orientation #1, #2, #3.
Also Don,
“Results and differences” are entirely based upon principle #24. In earlier posts, the polar bear “principle” was given as an example.
Dr. Strauss,
Could you distinguish the difference between “the body” and Limitations of Matter? I assumed they were the same thing.
Does the Limitation of Time relate to the “Results and Differences”? Brick in the Bucket Principle?
Thanks.
Don, you wrote: “Could you distinguish the difference between “the body” and Limitations of Matter? I assumed they were the same thing.” I should have written, The body and its limitations of matter. The body is governed by principles or laws. They include, but are not limited to the Law of Gravity, the Law of Life (ii-Principle 23 ) and Lof M. (Principle 24).
“Does the Limitation of Time relate to the “Results and Differences”? Brick in the Bucket Principle?” Since the intrepretation/manifestation of that Archimedean law is a process and takes time and Principle 4 states there is no process that does not take time, I would say the answer is yes
“Thanks.” You are very welcome. My pleasure.
Maybe this is why BJ felt he had to develop the chiropractic philosophy. Think about it, if you were a patient of DD’s and he said ” adjustments get you closer to god ” , only the religious would listen. If you were a patient of BJ’s and he said “adjustments remove the cause of all dis-ease’, only the sick needed to pay attention. In OSC all can benefit from the application of the principle and technique. Long live OSC!!!
Dr. Strauss,
You mentioned that ..”I tell them I get my spine checked once a week but rarely see changes but I am not looking for or feel I need changes and am satisfied to know my body is working better. If the PM is looking for changes instead of or in addition to greater expression of i thru m, then they may want something else beside chiropractic.”
Do any of the PM’s prompt you for how you or they will know that their body is working better? and how do you answer?
Don,
We do NOT know if the body is working better. Empiricism is totally powerless for proving it. What we have is 33 sound principles and through deductive reasoning, we know there can be interference with the transmission of mental impulse (pri.29) and it is caused by subluxations (pri.31) and that it creates dis-ease (pri.31). –
– Therefore we logically conclude that the LIVING body will function without interference with the transmission of mental impulse WHEN the LIVING body has NO subluxation and ease is restored. –
– It is the practice members WHO will choose to understand based upon WHO you choose to BE mirroring to them. Ultimately it is you WHO chooses to “own” the philosophy and “draw” it OUT of the practice members from WITHIN themselves. –
– After all, don’t people express innate intelligence in their body evidenced by the signs of life (pri.18)? 🙂
I rarely feel bad, perhaps because I have been under regular chiropractic care for 52 years. In the initial orientation we discuus with the PM, what they are desiring from their care and make them aware that if they want anything more than better life expression and are not willing to give their body time to do that, (if it can) then they need to see another provider in addition to us. If they indicate that physical changes is all they desire then we kindly inform them that is not what our office is about.
