I received this in an email this morning (4/12/10) from a colleague and feel it is appropriate as this week’s Simple Truth:
The POWER of the adjustment smacked me right between the eyes last week. A patient named Patty I had been seeing for over 10 years finally got the idea about getting checked. For the last year I’ve been checking her each week. Since I’ve gotten my own head on straight I don’t talk about symptoms with patients much. I wean them off that line of conversation as our relationship grows. Last week I found out that Patty had a bone marrow biopsy because her white count had been low. The good news is her results last week were negative.
The doctors are puzzled because no cancer was found and her white count has gone up. Patty and I know why, for the last 3 months I’ve paid particular attention to her atlas/axis. After 10 years of having her spine manipulated, she’s finally getting checked weekly and getting a proper adjustment, only when the check indicates. If cancer was there, it’s gone now.
The idea of the gift we have been given makes me very humble. And sorry for all those people I have not told the truth to due to my own cowardice; people that would still be alive today. The POWER we deal with is great. Let’s have the courage to tell people the truth this week. A proper adjustment given in the right way, at the right place, at the right time restores life to those that were dying. You’re either living or you’re dying, there’s no 3rd choice.
Do you KNOW that EVERY time you give a proper adjustment to correct a subluxation, you are restoring life to dying tissue? I didn’t say believe, I SAID KNOW. There’s a difference between believing something and knowing something. One of the worst feelings I have is thinking about how many Patty’s have died because I believed in chiropractic since 1988 but have not known chiropractic until the last few years.
No more regrets. The chiropractic adjustment saves lives. The power we serve is that big. If we know that, let our actions honor what we know. No fear. I know that the reason for Patty’s negative biopsy is because her atlas/axis has been clear for months now.
How many Patty’s will you see this week? Do you believe you can help
them? Or do you KNOW that the subluxation will kill them before their time? It’s that serious. Take appropriate actions to match the gravity of the situation.
Are you like this Chiropractor and Patty who have woken up to the purpose and power of an adjustment? I hope so. I see a world free and clear of subluxations interfering with people’s natural given ability to heal and maintain their health. It’s an undertaking and we need your help. My focus is right here in our backyard. Forward (or print and hand) this Simple Truth to that person who has been contemplating beginning a program of Chiropractic care. You’ll be their “doctor,” teaching them and receiving the thanks associated for saving their life. We Chiropractors are humble to the power that made the body which heals the body. In my opinion, that power is God.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK! Dr. Nardi
