The biggest part of the problem stems from the belief that how we FEEL is a reasonable way to determine how healthy you are.
So many things we do to quickly fix our problems make us feel better, but are literally letting are bodies rot from the inside out! What use is feeling good, if our body's ability to keep us healthy and well is slowly fading away? Is feeling good an acceptable measure of health, if it is killing us on the inside? Think about this for a moment.
Please give it deep thought.
What would you do if you woke up tomorrow morning feeling terrible? What about if you woke up with a fever? How about if you are vomiting from eating some bad sushi? Maybe you have a headache.
Maybe you even have a headache from the hangover you have from a long night out.
Chances are you will wake up and head right for the medicine cabinet and take some sort of pill.
In America we have a lotion or pill for every single ill! There is a medical potion or salve for every problem you can think of.
How often do we think about what causes all this before we just throw back a pill? Do you think about what the cause of this is? In all these cases your body is telling you something! Your body is giving you warning signs that something is not quite right, and you are simply taking a pill to cover it up! Think about this story.
One night you wake up and you smell smoke and you hear a fire alarm.
You make a quick decision and call 911! All seems good as now the fire department is on its way to save your house.
Before you know it the fire trucks pull up and suddenly a fireman is kicking down your door.
Next thing you know he is running up your steps carrying a ladder and he barges into your bedroom.
Before you can say anything he puts down a ladder next to your bed and goes up it carrying an axe.
He takes the axe and smashes your fire alarm into a million pieces.
Then he holsters the axe and tips his hat at you and says "Have a good night sir.
" Then he walks out of your house! You would yell...
wait you just smashed the fire alarm and my house is still burning down! You need to put the fire out! Thing is this is what we constantly do with our health in America when we take a pill to cover up the alarm instead of putting out the fire inside of our body.
The solution is we can't simply cover up the problems! We go about thinking we are healthy, then suddenly everything seems to change.
But it was not over night that our health deteriorated.
We all know someone who has a "sudden" heart attack, or "out of nowhere" has terminal cancer! This happens every day to people we know.
Isn't it time we put the fire out? Your body is so intelligent, and is screaming at you to put the fire out! We need to find the cause of our health issues.
We need to find permanent solutions to long term problems vs.
looking for short term cover ups.
So often in Upper Cervical Chiropractic, these doctors find CAUSE as to what is happening with your health.
If you have an issue that you have been covering up (maybe even for years), think about looking for a long term solution today!
