Add Years to your life And life to your years

I have always said that you should begin chiropractic adjustments at birth and continue throughout your entire life. Richard is Eighty-Two years old and continues to receive his chiropractic adjustments. Just as everyone in your family should receive adjustments, you should also bring in your grandparents. With medication use on the rise with the elderly, it is especially important that these people receive adjustments. The average grandma and grandpa are on approximately seven to eight different medications, each one to treat the side effect of the other.
Chiropractic is the essential ingredient to a healthier, more productive and longer life. Research shows that the smallest amount of pressure on a nerve from a subluxation will take away the functions of any organ, tissue or blood vessel that it controls. Chiropractic care should be on a maintenance visit level for their entire life. Colonel Sanders received his adjustments every week for the last Sixty-Five years of his life (He lived into his mid 90’s). Here are what some of the studies have showed how chiropractic care added years to our grandparent lives and life to their years.
A detailed analysis of a database collected during a three-year randomized study of senior citizens over 75 years of age and chiropractic care revealed that they received the following: better overall health, used fewer prescription drugs, and spent fewer days in hospitals and nursing homes than elderly non-chiropractic patients. The chiropractic patients were also more likely to exercise vigorously and more likely to be mobile in the community.
Eighty-seven percent of the chiropractic patients described their health status as good to excellent, compared to only sixty seven percent of the non-chiropractic patients.
Furthermore, the chiropractic patients spent fifteen percent less time in nursing homes and twenty one percent less time in hospitals than the non-chiropractic patients.
A retrospective assessment of 2,818 respondents in 156 chiropractic practices found a strong connection between persons receiving Chiropractic Care and self- reported improvement in health, wellness, and quality of life.
Ninety-five percent of the respondents reported their chiropractic expectations had been met, and ninety nine percent wished to continue care.
Now matter how much arthritis, degeneration you have, chiropractic is the only profession that will detect and correct interference in your nervous system. A healthy nervous system is the key to a longer and healthier life. It is my wish that through chiropractic care you will be able to unlock your fountain of youth.

The 3,000 Mile Tune-Up


The question often arises over and over again…should I still continue to come for regular adjustments even if I don’t have pain? Well, I am glad you asked. I would personally agree with getting regular chiropractic adjustments because I have been receiving maintenance adjustments for ten years now. I have only had low back pain with my occasional accidents. Pain should never be the controlling factor of why you return to get adjusted. Your nervous system is made up of over seventy-five miles of nerves and the nerve impulses can be as fast as three hundred and fifty miles per hour. Only 10% of your body registers pain and 90% controls functions like breathing, digesting, thinking and eliminating. In the last moment of the pressure on a nerve will you feel the pain, but well before that pressure your bodily functions will be affected and decreased.

Would you rather just feel good and be out of pain or be healthy. The first symptom of some who is having a heart attack is death. Prior to that heart attack, that person felt good. Again I cannot stress how important it is to have your nervous system functioning at 100%. Well Dr. Steve, how often do you check your family? I check and adjust my family about 1-2 times per week. Why would I do any less for you and your
family?

Since I started driving 15 years ago, my dad always instilled in me to have my car tuned every 3,000 miles.

Why would you not want your nervous system to run at its optimum peak for the entire life? How long would your car last if you only tuned it up when the engine started smoking or the oil light came on?

When it comes to your health and nervous system, it should be your number one priority with your family. As my dad had taught me, “teeth and an engine can be replaced, but it can never be as good as the original.”

What is more expensive, Pain care or Maintenance care? Well, say that you have two flare-ups a year at 50 adjustments (times $25 co pay=$1,250) to stabilize your spine compounded with all the excruciating pain plus lost days from work or maintenance adjustments at 2 to 3 times a month at a total of $750 with your full ability expressed at all times. You make the choice. Health is your responsibility and you do have a choice to keep your family’s nervous system always operating at 100%. I hope to see you and your family for a regular tune-up.
