Limit Media Use

The media bombards us. The 24-hour news channels, cable and satellite radio and television, magazines, billboards, newspapers and even the Internet clamor for our attention.

Separate From Reality

Media experience is not real. Sure, we may flinch during a fight scene or be moved to tears by a tender moment, but we are largely being passive and separate.

Creates Group Think

The media creates a herd mentality. We appear to be free, but in so many way we dress, act and think just like everyone else. The media also tends to reduce creativity.

Contemporary Hypnotism

Ever watch someone watch television? Their vacant stare, fixated on the moving images, reveals the dangerous side of allowing unfiltered ideas to enter our consciousness.

Are there valuable educational experiences available through the media? Of course. But they are presented along with the health-compromising values of drug advertising, instant gratification, gratuitous consumerism and violence.

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
