Prevention Is Better Than a Cure

By: Dr. Alan Rosenthal

Chiropractors ascribe to the ideas that being your best is the key to achieving balance, wellness, and the highest quality of life. In essence, prevention is infinitely better than a cure.

The Goal of Chiropractic

A Chiropractor’s primary goal is not simply to alleviate the pain that is often experienced in and around the back, although that is often one of the beneficial side-effects of Chiropractic wellness care. Instead, Chiropractic strives to ensure that the complex “communication superhighway” (the nervous system) within the spinal column can relay information accurately between all parts of the body and brain. This is achieved by restoring, maintaining and optimizing the function of your back and neck (spinal column).

System Unity

Having a free flow of information across your nervous system is proven to be increasingly important according to recent research findings. Studies have now shown that the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems are so interconnected that they are better thought of as one system. This new system’s master controller is the central nervous component. The traditional theory of that mental processes are separate from the body have proven to be invalid.

Innate Intelligence

By having your spinal and nervous system function at or near peak performance your body is allowed to fully express it’s inborn ability to heal. You then become more likely to achieve unity of body, mind and spirit. Your body is given the best chance of healing itself as nature intended, and you have the best opportunity to express and experience life to its fullest. Such natural healing is the product of what Chiropractors call inborn, or “innate intelligence.”

Drugs or Wellness?

As we continue on the path of health care, more and more people are realizing that health does not come from a pill. Taking dose after dose of medication will not make you healthy. There is also a long list of media publications warning people about the dangers of drugs. We all wait to see which is the next drug to pulled off the shelves because of its danger to our health. Since it’s obvious that our society can no longer afford the escalating cost of a drug dependent health care system, more people than ever before are looking for natural approaches to health, including Chiropractic wellness care.
