Sometimes we try to split hairs so finely in chiropractic philosophy that we can lose sight of who we are and what we do. Some years ago a chiropractor took issue with my statement that chiropractors correct vertebral subluxations to enable the innate intelligence of the body to be more fully expressed. His argument was ... Read more

If there is no cellular intelligence, what does the sperm cell possess? It is not part of the body, yet it is alive. So where does the innate intelligence come from if it is not there in the (genetically half) cell to begin with?

The government (in the form of the EPA) will not allow towns threatened by mosquito borne West Nile Virus to use pesticides near lake areas because it will possibly affect the local’s hormonal systems.

We must establish laws or standards in certain areas but we must not in others. This is the challenge of a free society, the right of free speech but not ... Read more

The issue is: are you treating a condition or correcting a vertebral subluxation to enable the body to resolve a condition? The question is: what’s the difference?
