Live a High Quality Life or React to Pain

By: Dr. Alan Rosenthal

One of the most challenging aspects of Chiropractic wellness care is to help people understand that this profession is much more than just pain relief. Spinal adjustments allow the master controlling system of the body to function at it’s best to increase well being and length of life.

Being Well and Being Pain-Free

Although adjustments help people with acute or chronic pain, perception of pain is only 1/9th of our nervous system function. Quite commonly I hear someone comment that they are “fine” because they have no pain. There is a big difference between being well and being pain-free. You could be pain-free, but only be at 70% of your potential. You could be pain-free while sitting in a chair and have pain just by getting up and walking. You could be pain-free but have a cancerous tumor wreaking havoc on your prostate and not even know it.

A large portion of our population wakes up every morning with a body that is functioning less than normal. Unfortunately, many of these people do not realize that they could live life with better energy, more freedom of movement and enjoy life to a higher degree. They attribute their lack of energy or lack of overall function to age, sleep or other excuses.

The Danger of Medications

The pharmaceutical industry wants our culture to believe that covering up symptoms, or being pain-free, is being healthy. They want us to mask the signals from the body that let us know that we are in trouble. The danger in this is that people fail to see that there is a cause to their problems, which most times can be solved. Instead, many people find themselves on drug after drug, which now through research has been shown to kill vast numbers of people in our society. The fourth leading cause of death is medication. This fact should scare everyone.

The number of people who are investigating how to have superior health through Chiropractic wellness care is growing daily. I feel privileged to be able to help people learn and prosper in their health.
