Chiropractic and Kids

Pot Calling The Kettle Black!!

Have you been told that Chiropractic care is not for kids? WOW nothing could be more untrue.
I hope your pediatrician or doctor didn't tell you that. If they did, you better ask them why.
If they say there is no evidence that chiropractic works, or that chiropractic is not safe, they better check where they are coming from!
In fact, did you know that almost 80 percent of hospitalized children get drugs that are not approved for pediatric use?
And that there are an amazing amount of adverse drug reactions each year because "Physicians who treat children often prescribe drugs for off-label uses because little information is available from well-controlled studies on dosage, formulation, effectiveness and safety in children."

Chiropractors have been adjusting kids for 100 years. We do this because we know that your body is designed to be healthy. If your spine and nervous system is balanced and without interference, you will be able express your health fully.

Chiropractic allows your body to work better and be healthier. That plus a good lifestyle is where healing really happens.

We believe it is "Better to grow healthy kids than it is to fix broken adults".

So if your doctor tells you chiropractic is not for kids, think again.

Thanks Dr Kent for some great information.

Heart Bypass or Not?

Wow, a brand new study from the New England Journal of Medicine provides additional evidence that coronary bypass surgery does not prolong life.

Can you believe that the longer we are around, the more we find that Medicine is not evidence based?

Talk about saying chiropractors not evidence based. At least we do no harm, and cost way less.

Thanks to Dean Ornish MD for finding this.

Medical Journal: Prostate Screening is Useless

I always thought this was a test I was going to have done. So this was surprising news to me when I saw this article, from a prominent medical journal.

As it turns out, the study Randomised prostate cancer screening trial: 20 year follow-up, showed that, prostate screenings do nothing to change death rates from this type of cancer.

This means that these tests are not only a waste of your time and money, but add to the expensive cost of health care in America. Furthermore, this screening increases anxiety and lead to expensive procedures that do nothing for improving life expectancy.

This backs previous research that much of medical care is not based on good evidence and that medical care possibly causes more harm than good.

Goes to show you that once again, good life style choices, and a properly functioning nervous system, is the key to your best health!!
