You Are Not a Problem That Needs Solving.

 In health care we seek help when we have a problem to solve.  According to The Sound of Music, instead of having a problem, you are a problem.   There's even a song: How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria.

My problem was mental health.  

As a clinician in the mental health system I grew frustrated because of the subtle and not so subtle ways people were insulted, intimidated and sometimes threatened, not to mention poisoned. (Revisit  my post about Dr. Peter Breggin)

I chose chiropractic because it is a liberating way to live your life. 

Chiropractic is not a problem solver because you are not a problem.  You are a human experiencing life. 

Most people, and many chiropractors probably don't understand this.  My education focuses on "the chief complaint."  You are given a diagnosis because that is how you start the ball rolling.  You need a descriptive term to point you in the right direction of treatment.  

 I had to learn all the fancy medical and chiropractic lingo.   What a long road that just gets you walking around in circles. 

But you are not a problem, you are a person. 

I decided I didn't want to continue that language.  It's quite the challenge.  I still fall into it when I'm speaking with others. 

I even titled this blog: Pain Translator just to remind you there is another way.  

Let's talk about your life experiences and utilize chiropractic as the brain/body boost so you're ready for anything. 

Sounds a lot better than focusing on "degeneration," chronic this and chronic that. 

The Core of Chiropractic states that all life is energy distribution.  We use the chiropractic adjustment to manage this energy, because the spine is a Fight or Flight Switchboard.  Where's your energy going?

Half Full or "All the Way" Full

 

With chiropractic, mainstream authorities tend to over-emphasize body mechanics when mental mechanics is just as legit. 

Don't deprive yourself.   

All life is energy distribution.

Chiropractic manages this energy because the spine is a Fight-or-Flight switchboard.

   

I am a Doctor of Life. True Life - Not a Distorted View of Life

I chose to be a chiropractor because I am a doctor of life.  I am not a doctor of dead cells sitting in a petri-dish filled with poisons.  That is not life and does not give us any insights into life. 

I am a doctor of life.  Real life.  I don't want to be compared to a mouse born in an artificial environment, fed chemicals and tested with tomorrow's profitable drugs. 

That's all.  I try to keep it simple. 

We all benefit from chiropractic care.  In our modern world chiropractic care is a necessity.  Most of the public do not participate in chiropractic care because they have a distorted view of life.  

This view forms early in childhood, handed down by parents who also have a distorted view of life. 

I invite those who are curious to learn the Brain Budget Protocol because it will completely shift your view of life.  Many people like the results they get from chiropractic but limit themselves when they could actually live in a much more invigorated manner.  You can turbo-charge your chiropractic with a mental deep dive into the uncensored definition of life.

It's easy.  Just get off the internet, stop scrolling through senseless pages of useless entertainment, and make a real phone call so we can speak person to person.  

I'm really a lot of fun to talk to.

I Don't Want to Help You...

How do you manage your energy? 

I don't want to help you.  "Help" is temporary.  Help is just for the moment. Help is passive, if you are not really in tune with yourself. 

 Hint #1: Get in tune with yourself

I want to change you. I want you to experience the same sense of personal empowerment I realized is always possible with the understanding of chiropractic's core philosophy, the most basic guiding principles of chiropractic that I discovered on my own before entering chiropractic college.  

Chiropractic is not a problem solver, it is a life enhancer. 

Hint #2: We lost these basic guiding principles early on in life, probably many generations ago.  

 My #1  reason for becoming a chiropractor is empowerment. 

I was previously a mental health therapist and saw no empowerment.  It was depressing.  That's very sad to say. 

We tend to hide behind clinical labels and it robs us of great personal transformation.  Hold this thought in the back of your mind and remind yourself how easy it is to lose sight of your own greatest internal gifts. 

Where does empowerment come from? Think back to times you were influenced by something so profound that  it motivated you to take action in a way you never thought you could.  How were you surprised by an ability you didn't think you had within you?

Yes, you have your own personal success stories.  You have proof in your own life experience.  So why do we forget we possess this talent and fall into the deep path of self doubt?  When is that destructive seed planted?

Back when my grandmother was living with us, I watched her decline.  I saw the mess of her pills. A bag full of plastic disorganization.  I did not want that to be me.  I was motivated by sympathy.  Possibly disgust.  Her quality of life before the stroke wasn't terrible, but she already had a poor outlook of her own existence that is actually embedded in our culture. 

I enjoyed my educational pursuits while studying clinical counseling.  I knew it could make a difference.  The system, however, is mired in negativity.  Sorry, this is my opinion, but I don't want to be treated in a system like this.  That is why I pursued chiropractic. 

But the empowerment is lacking in the current system involving chiropractic.  I should not be surprised. Chiropractic follows the same government authoritative body and is just as problematic unless I am willing to step aside from the rat race of mainstream methods. 

I know I help people, they tell me. But do I change people?

I'm not satisfied with helping.  I want to see people change in a way that transforms their lives, where they have optimism and see results from their actions. 

You have the inborn traits that protect you, replenish your spent tissues and keep you alive.  It is downplayed in the mainstream models of health care. 

You can approach chiropractic as an intervention.  I prefer to approach it as a CELEBRATION.  This completely changes the intent but also it changes the state of your nervous system. 

The early chiropractic trail blazers were a part of this. But, it's so typical, if you're not careful you fall into habits of complacency.  You forget the chiropractors who went to jail for their craft.  You forget the ten year lawsuit that stopped the American Medical Association from conducting illegal activity against chiropractors. 

Let's get back to you.  You know my story.  Tell me yours.

Where are you today?  How do you view your energy?  How do you view your future?  I'm not talking about back pain and how you rate your pain from 0 - 10.  To me, that is a depersonalized way of categorizing your current state. It doesn't go deep to the deep person that you are. 

The Chiropractic Lifestyle.....yes it is a way of life that remove you from the negativity that we often get too stuck in. 

Stop reading this blog and get in the office.
