Why Chiropractors
Adjust Vertebrae

MI nerves have their origin in
the brain and cause the conduct
or junction which we call life or
animation. If there is no inter
ference with the nerves the en-
tire system is in normal condi-
ton and vital force (nerve stim-
ulusl is radiated to all parts OF
the body. producing health. If
the nerves are interfered with in
such manner as to lessen stimu-
lation. health is interfered with
Just to that extent.
Interference is caused by the
cGsrelation or displacement OF
vertebrae which forms the fora
men Copening) through which
the nerves emerge from the
spinal cord. Displaced vertebrae
retard or stop stimulus in nerve
trunks in greater or less degree
and the organs supplied by these
nerves will be abnormal in pro-
portion to the lessened stimula-
tion. and there will be abnormal
junction, called disease.
Therefore 1t is the business OF
the chlropractor to restore an
atomic relation to all parts of the
body by adjusting by HAND
without adjuncts} the displaced
Nertebrae in such manner that
pressure is removed from nerve
trunks. and nerve force is freed.
50 the body can receive new life
or health.
