Q&A #10 By-pass Surgery

  1. Maybe, but what does that have to do with chiropractic philosophy? Even if someone did an exhaustive study and found that a certain percentage of bypass patients had morphological or physiological changes to the grafted veins it wouldn’t tell you how a given patient would adapt to the surgery.

    I think from the perspective of chiropractic philosophy we could say that it is a possibility, but we could not comment on its probability. The innate intelligence of the individual who had the surgery will do everything that it can to normalize function of the heart and grafted vessels. Even though the ii has perfect awareness of the changes made to the body it can only do its best to adapt to the specific circumstances. It may always be the limited by the matter of the graft or interference to mental impulses.

    PS. It’s my understanding that they currently use arterial grafts instead of venous grafts whenever possible because the veins tend to collapse or close relatively quickly compared arteries.

    • If only one person has morphological changes, that proves the ii of the body can do that and that bepeaks how great ii is.. the foundation of the chiropractic philosophy. Research, on the other hand proves nothing except the condition or its symptoms went away. That may be the result of many things, which may or may not br related to the chiropractic adjustment and the body healing itself. In either case, it does not mean that chiropractic was responsible for the healing. You bring up an interesting question; does chiropractic philosophy relate to “possibility” or “probability.”
