Chiropractic Care Summerville, South Carolina

I was listening to a tape the other day of a chiropractor. His name is Reggie Gold and he is a legend in our profession who just turned 80. One thing that he said on this tape that really grabbed me was that Chiropractic really has nothing to pain and really has nothing to do with health.

Chiropractic is all about performance.

The human body functions and performs better in the absence of subluxation than with it. For those of you who need a refresher subluxation is when you nervous system is being interfered with by improper spinal alignment or function. Whenever you come in for an adjustment there is but one goal for that adjustment – remove interference and maximize your potential to perform.

My mindset used to be that the public thinks Chiropractic is for bad backs and we need to get the word out that it’s about overall health. This is actually not the case. Chiropractic is really about allowing your body to be fully controlled by the intelligence in the nervous system with no interference from outside (drugs, poor lifestyle) or inside (subluxation) thereby allowing your body to perform at its peak in all categories – only one of which is health.

We have couples who come in and tell us their marriage is better since beginning care. Does it make sense that two people would get along better if they could relate to each other with no interference? Of course it does, but this doesn’t really fall under the category of health, does it?

We have a whole slew of kids who began care over the summer as a result of Kid’s Day America, which we host every year. Many of these children not only had health problem such as ear infections, recurrent colds, strep throat, and respiratory problems that cleared up once they began care, but they also had behavior and concentration problems that affected their school work. It is now time for these kids to get new xrays and across the board the parents are telling me that they are now getting A’s and the behavior problems have gotten better (no more red marks). Subluxation was interfering with their school performance.

If you play sports do you think your body will perform better with or without subluxation? How about your job performance? I make sure my staff get regular adjustments now because I know it costs me money to have a subluxated staff person who is performing below their capacity.
