Know what I never knew until recent years? What chiropractic is really about. I always thought you went to a chiropractor for sore muscles and out-of-place vertebrae. And that’s it. My dad had his buddy Dr. Derr. My dad visited him so often they became friends. My dad was a block and brick mason; lots of things go out when that’s what you do for a living, eh?
Well, since being partially enlightened on the subject, I have found that the practice of chiropractics is to keep one’s body in alignment so its functions can carry on properly. Meridians can flow, organs can operate, and life can be healthier for it. A regular maintenance program is recommended for maintaining health.
A couple of days ago a client introduced me to something called naprapathy. It is an offshoot of chiropractic and osteopathy. Thanks to Wikipedia, I know that and I also now know what subluxation is … medically and chiropractically!
This is a website with good explanation. Mt. Lebanon Chiropractic.
And here’s a video that makes it so simple to understand!
So much in the way of naturopathy! All seem to be gaining ground as awareness grows and people learn to look for natural ways of healing themselves and empowering their bodies. I’ve even heard that some medical and naturopathic practitioners are joining forces and some insurance companies are covering alternative medicine treatments.
It is always good to ask for advice from an informed person and licensed naturopaths are the ones to seek out for this. So much information is available online, but to be sure, find a naturopath you trust who doesn’t mind your asking a ton of questions.
Decisions are yours, of course, and better informed makes for more wisely decided.
