We believe that there isn’t a human being walking this earth that is not subluxated. Subluxations are caused by many factors including the way we were born, the position in the womb, the food we eat, what we drink, the way we sleep, our posture, how we fall, how we learn to walk, our activities or lack of activities, the chemicals we are exposed to, the traumas we experience both physically and mentally. This list really is very comprehensive and doesn’t end there.

We believe that if you have a subluxation and you do not get it adjusted and corrected by a Chiropractor, the pressure that the misaligned bone puts on the surrounding nerve will cause an interference in the nervous system. The subluxation leads to a loss of function and degeneration, leading to disease in the body and consequently death. Subluxations are silent killers. A subluxation at the level of the 4th thoracic vertabra can put pressure on the nerves that are responsible for controlling and sending messages to the heart. If the brain cannot communicate with the heart because of an interference in the nervous system, it makes sense that you will be more likely to suffer from a heart attack or heart disease than someone whose nervous system is working to the very best of its potential.

We believe that it is our responsibility to tell people about subluxation and for them to tell others about it, especially our most precious resource, our children. We believe it is unethical to know about the devastating effects of subluxation long term and then leave your kids at home subluxated. This also means that because of this belief and knowing how devastating subluxations are, we believe everyone needs to have their spine checked for subluxation from birth to death and if they have a subluxation, get it adjusted.

Subluxations do not necessarily cause pain. Mostly people notice the symptom that arises from having subluxations and so label their problem as a pathology opposed to a subluxation. We do not concentrate on your symptoms because although in the forefront of your mind, they are not a good indicator of what is actually going on underneath. The human body receives 3 trillion bits of information per second, and only 50 of these bits are perceived as pain. This means that if you are in pain, you are in fact giving credit to the 50 three-trillionths of information and not looking at the whole picture, which as you can see is not a good indication of how you are really functioning.

The 10 dangerous thoughts about your health are:

• 1. Maybe it will go away
• 2. It comes and goes
• 3. It’s not that bad
• 4. It only hurts when I…
• 5. I know what my problem is, its…
• 6. I was told I’ve got to live with it, so I do
• 7. My doctor couldn’t find anything wrong
• 8. I’ve been this way for years, why change now?
• 9. It’s because of my age
• 10. I don’t want to know!

Chiropractors are highly trained primary health care practitioners. They are specialists in finding Vertebral Subluxation. No other profession specialises in this. A Chiropractic adjustment targets the subluxation specifically and using a gentle force, corrects the subluxation. As a result, pressure is taken off the nerves and can produce an instant and measurable increase in nerve function. Repeated adjustments will reduce the subluxation pattern in a person’s spine as the body begins to heal itself from the damage created under subluxated conditions.

The loss of function and degeneration caused by subluxations can take years to develop. It therefore makes sense that there will not be a “quick fix” solution to this problem. A person’s schedule of care is tailor made to the individual based on the examination and x-rays findings, as well as the persons medical and trauma history, and their past and current lifestyle. It is well known that you need good nutrition/hygiene, regular exercise/movement, a positive mental/emotional/social/spiritual attitude and adequate rest, relaxation and sleep to be healthy. All of these things are well known and agreed on world over. What you are not told about is that this is only part of the story; what if you don’t have a sound functioning nervous system? When you begin Chiropractic care and you are addressing the area of subluxation, the other four factors of health really complete the picture. It is one thing to be adjusted but if you are being adjusted and then walking straight back into a high stress job or grab fast food on the way home every night, then the adjustment will only be worth so much. If on the other hand you addressed the work environment to the best of your ability or changed your eating habits on top of being adjusted, then that adjustment would be worth a whole lot more.

We believe that YOU have a choice regarding your health. You can choose to address the lifestyle decisions that you are making. You can take responsibility for your health, your future, your way of life or you can choose to sit back and blame old age or the sick kids at pre-school or the chocolate for causing your headaches. You can similarly choose to use a sickness care system that is responsible for 18 000 fellow Australian deaths per year. OR YOU CAN CHOOSE CHIROPRACTIC, and choose an empowered and inspired lifestyle in which we encourage and equip you to be the very best you can be.

We believe that every living thing possesses intelligence of the highest form knows as innate intelligence. There are many names for this including “Mother Nature”, “God”, “Spirit”, “Source” etc, and it simply means that you have an inborn ability to heal and control yourself. You were born with this; it is not dependant on any external factor. However, subluxation does interfere with the way that your innate intelligence is expressed. An example of your innate intelligence is the body’s ability to heal when injured, or to close up a wound when you are cut. Another more miraculous example is the body’s ability to grow a perfect new human being inside the female. No one tells the body to develop the brain or the leg or the fingers of that tiny baby, it simply knows exactly what and when to do these things, and this is innate intelligence.

Numerous research papers and articles have pointed to the fact that the current health care system is not really a health care system at all; rather it is a sickness care system. New figures published in the Journal of the American Medical Association show that in America, drugs and surgery are the third biggest cause of death second only to cancer and heart disease. In Australia, approximately 18 000 people per year are dying because of medical mismanagement. The system does not recognise and promote drug free management of disease; it does not inspire or empower humanity to be well.

We believe that because subluxation is caused by just everyday living, a person needs to get their spine checked from birth to death and if they have a subluxation, get it adjusted. We believe that there is no point at which you will become subluxation-immune. If you are alive and have a spine, get adjusted.

People after finding out the above information are usually shocked and want to know why they have not been told about Subluxation. They usually would then get an initial history and exam to discover about their subluxation. The next question that comes up is, how long is it going to take? Or how often do I have to get adjusted? Which is usually followed by how much is it going to cost? The answers will be different for every single person but what we say is that if you know that a subluxation was choking off your life force, would you want it adjusted and the power turned back on? The answer is a resounding yes, so we will adjust you and then check you every couple of days and adjust the subluxation every time it comes back until it doesn’t come back, and then we will increase the time between adjustments and do the same thing, check you every 3 or so days and if the subluxation comes back, we will adjust it. If not then we will increase the time between adjustments again, and so on and so on.

You are how you are now because you are subluxated. Once those subluxations are corrected and reduced, your innate intelligence can begin to heal your body again and allow it to start reaching its full potential again. People often say to us “well I don’t think I’ll improve much more than this because the natural aging process is going to kick in soon and then it’s really down hill form there”. What we say to that is “rubbish”. Age has nothing to do with how you feel (other than for how long you’ve been subluxated for) and certainly nothing to do with your future. Chiropractic unleashes the natural healing power of the body. This means that under care your body will slow down and stop the degeneration process, and over time, even reverse it. By all means, if you come in at 80 years old and have lived a subluxated life for 80 years, it is going to take a really long time of this process to happen which will most likely exceed the rest of the time you have to live. However, by being adjusted when you are 80, the degeneration process will slow down and it may even stop. We have many people under care representing the older generation and they have reported that they have a new lease on life, a spring in their step, and are even playing golf and bowels better!

Can you put a price on having good health? Can you put a price on the prevention of disease or on opportunities that you may get in life because you are functioning at a higher level than those around you? Can you put a price on what it means for your son to no longer have sick days off school? Can you put a price on your daughters emotional and social development because she can now stay overnight at her friends house without fear of bed-wetting? The value of having good health is immeasurable.
