The Chiropratic Way

A perfect spine means PERFECT
health. In q large majority of
cases, the physical cause of disease
is a mechanical pressure on the
nerve az it passes out between the
bones Of the spinal column.
The trained and educated hand of
the Chiropractor alone can find the
PRESSURE POINT and by q quick,
skillful movement, adjust the mis-
placed bone, and thus re-establish
the flow of nerve energy and
health.
There is no mysterious CURE
about It. It Is not a cure. 1t is sim
