The New Principle of Chiropractic
In Our Society The Old Health Model We All Grew Up with Says:
- The body is dumb
- Doctors are smart
- Symptoms are bad and should be suppressed
How is it possible that God gave us a body which creates 3 million new cells every minute and controls and coordinates numerous organs and systems and yet is dumb? When we use drugs to suppress symptoms, we interfere with the body’s natural methods of getting itself well
In Chiropractic, we understand that:
- The body is smart, created in the image and likeness of God
- Doctors do not have all the answers
- Symptoms are your body’s way of telling you there is something happening that needs your attention or the body is healing itself
There is only one healer. It is not a pill or a shot. It is your body itself and the God-given intelligence within. Your body always knows what to do unless it is interfered with. Chiropractic attempts to remove interference. Chiropractic does not treat the symptom or the disease. Chiropractic does not cure the disease, for this can only be accomplished by nature from within.
“There exists an intelligence in man far greater than any intelligence that exists outside man. Each patient is his own best doctor.” -Albert Scweitzer, M.D.
