Peaceful Chiropractic?
03/31/22
Recently I read a thought-provoking quote from the discoverer of chiropractic.
"Those who expect to put in a life-time combating disease, fighting the entrance of disease as tho it was an enemy with hostile intent, should not learn Chiropractic. It is very difficult to change a medical fighter into a peaceful Chiropractor." -D.D. Palmer
The insight gained from this perspective is especially apropos to the application of tonal chiropractic. I am often asked how such a light adjustment can accomplish so much and in such a short amount of time. The answer can be deduced from the above quote.
Many methods attempt to overpower the body in one way or another in order to force an outcome. ex Drugs chemically override symptoms, or aggressive therapy is used to force a joint to move or a muscle to relax. In a sense the method "fights" against what is perceived to be the problem.
Tonal Chiropractic takes a different approach. Since we are working WITH the body, adjusting contacts are applied gently into areas of ease. The body accepts this gentle input and is empowered to peacefully let go of past reactions to stress. Once freed up, more ease is experienced throughout the entire body and you are better able to handle present time demands.
Let's get you in soon for a tune-up!
Yours in Health,
