We are all a bit selfish in
many ways. All of us use our
selves as a standard of measure
at least to some extent when
considering any proposition. We
ask ourselves, Do | like it? How
will it help me? What will l
get out of it. OF course it would
be much nicer were we to say,
How will it help others? What
can | do to help? But since
most of us are not that way, we
shall have to face problems as
they are and make the most of
it.
Health is one OF the most vi
tai issues that face any of us
so we usually give typical Case
Histories of patients who have
benefited by Chiropractic, for
example, the following: Case
No. A. man, age 20. complained
of catch in lower back, poor APP
petite, faulty elimination, poor
sleeper, low degree of energy.
Yet after a short course of spin
al adjustments he began feel
ing much better and was able
to work with comfort, eat
normally, and sleep well.
But you ask: Would Chiro-
practic help me? My case is diff
ferent. | have headaches, | am
nervous, and have such a numb
feeling at times. That being
true let me tell of Case No. B,
Woman, Age 26. Her symptoms
were those of headache, nerv-
BUSINESS, numbness in left hand
and leg with pain in hip and
back. There was also a tired,
tense feeling in the neck. The
Chiropractor made X-Rays of
the spine, found a decided SPIN
al subluXation that was inn
pinging nerves. Knowing that
this interference was the basic
cause of the woman's trouble,
he made a spinal adjustment
and she began to improve at
once. Within a few weeks the
case reported that all symptoms
were gone.
But someone else would say:
What about dizziness and Sinus
Trouble? That's what bothers
me. Would Chiropractic help
me too. In report | wish to state
Case No. c, man, age 40, had
these symptoms and after loca-
ton of the cause of his trouble
in his spine by X-Rays, follow
ed by the correct adjustment of
the displaced vertebra, he felt
much better in a short time and
in due time was well again.
Doubtless others will ask:
What about my cast? | have
other symptoms. Will Chiro-
practic help me? The answer is,
that the principle is the same
in all cases. Not every case will
get we'll. of course, but applying
a correct principle TO the cause
of disease and allowing for time.
wonders can be done in many
cases that seem almost hope
less. So consult a Chiropractor
If YOU are i'll. Give Chiropractic
a fair trial and you will not be
disappointed.
