We know that organs of the body can produce chemicals that are harmful to the organism, espcially if there is incoordination or DIS-EASE due to vertebral subluxation. Perhaps the endorphins “created” by the brain are an abnormal drug that the educated intelligence administers. The apparent symptomatic changes of some energy medicine procedures, including those techniques … Read more

Chiropractic will never gain universal acceptance as long as chiropractors keep depending upon new practice members, the majority of whom have injuries, accidents or who have symptoms of medical conditions. The world will never understand the non-therapeutic aspect of chiropractic as long as we are identified with symptomatic people. We must begin to attract what … Read more
We cannot change society’s paradigm. It is, and has been, outside-in since Adam and Eve sewed on fig leaves in the Garden. We can, and should, change the thinking of individual people who live within that paradigm by exposing them to the truth, logic and simpicity of the ADIO world and life viewpoint. The chiropractic … Read more
It is my opinion that 95% of vertebral subluxations are probably corrected by the innate intelligence of the body without aid of a chiropractor. Otherwise as a negative survival value, the human race would have died off long before DD in 1895. I think it’s pretty arrogant of us to think that the percentage is … Read more
This article appeared in the Pivot Review some years back. I offer it again because it got lost in the darkness of cyberspace and it is applicable to today. B.J. Palmer’s defintion of chiropractic reads: “Chiropractic is a philosphy, science and art of things natural; a system of adjusting the segments of the spinal column … Read more
It’s funny how we are often turned off by certain words, terms, or phrases but after a while they seem to grow on us. I really had difficulty accepting the word “straight” in the mid-seventies when it first became a common descriptive term of a school, an accrediting agency and a professional organization. I, like … Read more
The body is only material, flesh and blood. If it healed itself, you could cut the finger on a corpse and it would heal. It is the innate intelligence of the body, the non-material principle of life that does the healing. Are we making that distinction to our practice members and the people that we … Read more
There is no such thing as absolute certainty in statistics. Yet everyone wants to live in a world of certainty. Drugs are uncertain, help some, kill others, surgery the same. People count on the statistics (the odds) indicating the drug or surgery will do more good than harm, which is okay if your are part … Read more
Philosophically, we can never fully understand or explain “abnormal” physiological function. It may be a manifestation of the innate intelligence of the body adapting or it may a serious medical condition that necessitates immediate attention. That is one reason why we do not address it in practice.
