Have you been in a situation where you are explaining chiropractic to someone but it seems like you are going in circles? Have you ever wished there was an easy way to explain chiropractic to a non-chiropractor and have it make sense and have impact? <br /><br />I have a challenge for you; explain chiropractic in the following manner. There is only one no-no when using this explanation. You may not use the words Health, Wellness or discuss any kind of Symptom. There you have it. Here goes. Try this explanation.<br /><br />Before you begin explaining chiropractic you need to find out a few things from the person you are talking to. Find out what they do, what are their interests, their hobbies, do they have a family, find out what drives them. Then speak to them in terms of performance and function. Then as you are talking about how subluxation lowers performance and function tie it in with these topics. <br /><br />For example let’s say this person loves to fish. You explain that if they are subluxated they have nerve interference which can cause foggy thinking, your metabolism can slow down, you are not as sharp, hand eye coordination isn’t quite as good as it could be. How they will have diminished ability to feel in the fingers on the line the difference between a fish, weeds or rocks, ever so slight as it may be. They are not performing optimally with subluxation present.<br /><br />You can use hand eye coordination for lots of brain-body activities. How about when you come home from work and you get to spend some quality time with your family. Do you want to be subluxated or not? Be creative. Show how having a nerve system working less than perfect negatively impacts their daily activities. Then of course explain how much better life can be having a properly functioning nerve system. Integrate these facts into the body of the following explanation.<br /><br />So you want to know what chiropractic is all about. You have a brain located within your skull which extends through a large opening in the base of the skull traveling down through your backbone which is called your spinal cord. This spinal cord has 32 pair of nerves that branch off and pass between the vertebrae of your spine. These nerves travel to all parts of the body. As a matter of fact if you were to strip away everything from your body except for the nerve system we would still be able to recognize each other. You would see the curves of the body, the wrinkles in your skin as well as your tongue, eyelids, finger nails, fingers and toes. You have a lot of nerves in your body.<br /><br />Do you understand what the nerve system is? Could you explain to me what its function is? (Here you wait for their answer and you gauge how well they understand neurophysiology. You then reinforce their answer or expound upon it so they understand: It is the brain and nerve system that controls, coordinates and runs the body. Once they grasp this concept you continue.)<br /><br />Given the brain and nerve system runs all parts of the body it is important there is no interference of this brain-body communication system. The most common interference to the nerve system comes from subluxation. Subluxation is a minor misalignment of the bones of the spine which can sometimes pinch nerves but more commonly subluxation interferes with nerve transmissions from the brain to the body and back to the brain again. When there is interference between your brain and body, your performance suffers. Your body is unable to function as well as it could without nerve interference. <br /><br />Chiropractors help insure an individual lives their life as free from nerve interference as possible. Chiropractors detect and correct vertebral subluxations. By doing this we are removing interference from your nerve system helping to insure that your brain is able to communicate with all parts of the body resulting in improved function and performance on every level. <br /><br />Throughout your life you continue to do things that can and will cause you to subluxate. The majority of the time your body corrects these subluxations all by itself. However, sometimes the subluxations are not able to be self corrected by the body and that’s where the chiropractor comes into play. If you want your body to perform and function to the best of its ability and make the best use of all the good things you do for your body, as much as possible you must keep your nerve system functioning free from interference. <br /><br />This is why you need to see your chiropractor regularly throughout a lifetime. Everyone can benefit from living life free from nerve interference. Not only should you get checked regularly but so should your spouse your brothers &, sisters, your kids, your parents, your friends…you get the idea.<br /><br />I wouldn’t have you do anything I wouldn’t and I get checked for subluxation every week. Let’s say we start getting you and your family checked out.<br /><br />There you have it. You have just explained the essence of chiropractic and we never discussed symptoms, health or wellness. We just explained that your life will be better off when you live life free from nerve interference caused by subluxation.<br /><br />Inevitably a person will then ask you well that all sounds great but what about my (and they name a condition). They ask you about their symptoms.<br /><br />Your answer is: “When we remove nerve interference your body will function and perform better on every level, good things happen. This may or may not help your condition; however lots of people have been helped with many different conditions once getting under chiropractic care. Knowing what you now know that makes sense doesn’t it? Whether or not this will help, is yet to be determined. First we need to see if you are subluxated and then correct them and see what happens. Let’s see what happens to you?”<br /><br />Give this a try the next time you are explaining chiropractic to someone. You will find out it is very easy to do and quite effective.The Last Chiropractorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16337408484241465516noreply@blogger.com210tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1408071001625713223.post-9230145774645309992011-10-19T12:13:00.000-07:002011-10-19T12:15:51.411-07:00October Is National Chiropractic MonthThis is a 8 minute video of Patrick Gentempo, D.C. explaining Chiropractic in a simple easy to understand way.

What happens we experience stress beyond our ability to adapt properly? We get subluxated and don't achieve our full potential. This is why it is very important for everyone to get checked regularly by a Chiropractor.</div>

The body’s natural self-healing process is interrupted when the patient fails to maintain their alignment between corrections. So when did they need another correction? ... Later that day ... the next day ... the next week?Spasmodic Healing happens when the healing process is not continuous. Obviously, if a patient requires a correction on each visit, It's time to re-evaluate: Are you applying your corrective procedure effectively?New x-rays ... The correction formula may have changed.Question the patient ... they may be causing the frequent misalingment to occur. Restricted brain to body communication leads to the development of acute and chronic health problems. Continuous healing is the ultimate in Total Wellness and the Key to Optimal Health.Holding your alignment correction -- is-- Healing!Maintaining it -- is -- health maintenance at its Best!

Your income. Debt. Relationships. Health. Fitness level. Attitudes and behaviors.<br />I've often said that you are either creating or allowing everything that is happening in your life.<br />I think everyone knows this in their hearts, but often times people convince themselves into thinking that external factors are the source of their failure, disappointment, and unhappiness.<br />External factors do not determine how you live. YOU are in complete control of the quality of your life, by either creating or allowing the circumstances you experience.<br />When I hear people complain about the state of their life (be it their problems with personal finances, weight, their jobs, or general dissatisfaction), I like to help them see things differently.<br />If they feel “stuck” and unable to move forward for whatever reason, I ask them to scrutinize both what is working well and what isn’t working well in their life and see how they’ve arrived at where they currently are.<br />For example, if a woman tells me she’s unhappy with her weight—she travels frequently, and has no to time to exercise or seek healthy foods—I point out that her weight is not a result of her travels and schedule. It’s an outcome of what she chooses to eat and how she chooses to move, regardless of her daily agenda. Why not make a conscious effort to pre-plan healthy meals and snacks, even if it’s on the go, and sneak in 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there to be physically active (hey, I know some frequent flyers that make it a habit of running through airports!).<br />If you’re frustrated with any area in your life, then it’s time to take a little inventory.<br />Certainly there are wonderful things happening, whether it’s your job, your romantic relationship, your children, your friends, or your income level. Your accomplishments are just as important as your missteps.<br />First, congratulate yourself on your successes; and then take a look at what isn’t working out so well. What are you doing or not doing to create those experiences?<br />Watch out! If you find yourself beginning to complain about everything but the choices you’ve made, then you need to take a step back. See if you can stop blaming outside factors for your unhappiness.<br />When you realize that you—and only you—create your experiences, you’ll realize that you can un-create them and forge new experiences whenever you want.<br />How empowering is that!<br />You must take responsibility for your happiness and your unhappiness, your successes and your failures, your good times and your bad times.<br />All too often we choose to claim the successes and blame the failures on others or other circumstances. When you stop blaming, however, you can take that energy and redirect it to focus on shaping a better situation for yourself. Blaming only ties up your energy. Imagine roping all the energy into a positive effort.<br />Some ideas to make this happen:<br />1. Believe, Believe, Believe! Have unwavering faith in yourself, for good and bad. Make the decision to accept the fact that you create all your experiences. You will experience successes thanks to you, and you will experience pain, struggle, and strife thanks to you. Sounds a little strange, but accepting this level of responsibility is uniquely empowering. It means you can do, change, and be anything. Stumbling blocks become just that—little hills to hop over.<br />2. Take no less than 100% responsibility . Successful people take full responsibility for the thoughts they think, the images they visualize, and the actions they take. They don't waste their time and energy blaming and complaining. They evaluate their experiences and decide if they need to change them or not. They face the uncomfortable and take risks in order to create the life they want to live.<br />3. Stop complaining . Look at what you are complaining about. I’m fat. I’m tired. I can’t get out of debt. I won’t ever get a better job. I can’t stand the relationship I have with my sister. I’ll never find a soulmate in life. Really examine your complaints. More than likely you can do something about them. They are not about other people, other things, or other events. They are about YOU.<br />4. Make an immediate change. Are you unhappy about something that is happening right now? Make requests that will make it more desirable to you, or take the steps to change it yourself. Making a change might be uncomfortable for you. It might mean you have to put in more time, money, and effort. It might mean that someone gets upset about it, or makes you feel bad about your decision. It might be difficult to change or leave a situation, but staying put is your choice so why continue to complain?<br />You can either do something about it or not. It is your choice and you have responsibility for your choices.<br />5. Pay attention. Looking to others for help and guidance is helpful, but don’t forget to stay tuned in to yourself—your behavior, attitude, and life experiences. Identify what’s working and what isn’t. If you need to, write it all down. Then…<br />6. Face the truth and take action for the long term . You have to be willing to change your behavior if you want a different outcome. You have to be willing to take the risks necessary to get what you want. If you’ve already taken an initial step in the right direction, now’s the time to plan additional steps to keep moving you forward, faster.<br />Isn’t it a great relief to know that you can make your life what you want it to be? Isn’t it wonderful that your successes do not depend on someone else?<br />If you need just one thing to do different today, than you did yesterday, make it this:<br />Commit to taking 100% responsibility for every aspect of your life. Decide to make changes, one step at a time. Once you start the process you’ll discover it's much easier to get what you want by taking control of your thoughts, your visualizations, and your actions!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Jack Canfield, America's #1 Success Coach, is founder of the billion-dollar book brand Chicken Soup for the Soul© and a leading authority on Peak Performance and Life Success.

Don’t think you should only dream big during economic heydays. Dream big every day, especially during tough times.<br />As soon as you commit to a big dream and really go after it, your subconscious creative mind will come up with big ideas to make it happen. You’ll start attracting the people, resources, and opportunities you need into your life to make your dreams come true.<br />STEP 2: Set Goals That Will Stretch YouAnother value in giving yourself permission to go after the big dreams is that big dreams require you to grow in order to achieve them. In fact, in the long run, this is the greatest benefit you will receive from pursuing your dreams — not so much the outer trappings of fulfilling the dream (an expensive car, impressive house, loads of money and philanthropic opportunities), but who you become in the process.<br />As I’ve seen many times over, the outer symbols of success can all be easily lost. Houses burn down, companies go bankrupt, relationships end, cars get old, bodies age and fame wanes, but who you are, what you have learned, and the new skills you have developed never go away. These are the true prizes of success.<br />STEP 3: Service to OthersAs you pinpoint what you want to go after, think about how you can be of service to others. When your dreams include this element, you’ll find yourself speeding along the path to accomplishing that goal. People want to be part of something that makes a difference.<br />STEP 4: Turn Your Dreams into Goals and ObjectivesOnce you are clear about what you want, you must turn each item into a measurable goal. By measurable, I mean measurable in space and time, how much and by when. Don’t just say that you want to lose weight, for instance. Be specific, push yourself to higher limits, and set dates. Say something like, “I want to lose 50 pounds by summer and participate in my community’s 10K for charity by the 4th of July.”<br />Similarly, your boss, your friends, your spouse, your brain — God, the Universe — can’t figure out what you want unless you specifically tell them what it is.<br />What do you want — exactly — and when do you want it by?<br />Step 5: Write Your Goals DownWrite your goals down in detail, and read your list of goals every day. This will keep your subconscious mind focused on what you want. For an even more powerful approach, close your eyes and focus on each goal and ask yourself, "What is one thing I could do today to move toward the achievement of this goal?" Write down your answers and take those actions.<br />I recommend writing down a minimum of 3 goals in each of the following 7 areas:<br />1. Financial Goals2. Career/Business Goals3. Free Time/Family Time 4. Health/Appearance Goals 5. Relationship Goals6. Personal Growth 7. Making a Difference/Contribution<br />If you want help getting started, I have some handy worksheets and even more guidance for you that models this formula, including examples. <a href="http://www.on2url.com/app/adtrack.asp?MerchantID=72254&AdID=474114">Click here</a> to access this FREE Audio Training and Action Guide to start creating all that you deserve in your life!<br />© 2010 Jack Canfield<br />* * *<br />Are you "stuck" in this area?

This means during your consultation, assessment, report of findings, and orientation you must get clear just what you are trying to accomplish and what the rules are before beginning care. For example, your objective might be to get a straight line on a scan and balance someones legs. If someone comes in to get checked for subluxation and they have a straight line, balanced legs, but also have symptoms, they will know that they don't need to get adjusted that day and this is great, as long as you closed the gate first and explained the rules and get an agreement about it. If you do this, it will make locating and correcting subluxations much easier in your office.</div>The Last Chiropractorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16337408484241465516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1408071001625713223.post-7559820963781109942009-11-29T18:23:00.000-08:002009-11-29T18:31:52.944-08:00Spotlight: Rosen Coaching<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbOq2ZkCxxev87bPUEy2LUkqIUtw2BR6cZjq7P7M2a909TcckpCovv5mdZx6jxdW44aZMfJxWzpxzqdh52W29KUNFoCxvkDTs-paC8Z0ADQqS_tCAdeUbDLXaXdgyNbSUhpDEK0L0ZDV8/s1600/home_main_image.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409718786366073570" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 108px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbOq2ZkCxxev87bPUEy2LUkqIUtw2BR6cZjq7P7M2a909TcckpCovv5mdZx6jxdW44aZMfJxWzpxzqdh52W29KUNFoCxvkDTs-paC8Z0ADQqS_tCAdeUbDLXaXdgyNbSUhpDEK0L0ZDV8/s200/home_main_image.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Rosen Coaching at <a href="http://www.rosencoaching.com/">http://www.rosencoaching.com/</a> has tons of free information to help you be a better Chiropractor, check out the website today. Dr. Angie Meyer was our last interview of The Last Chiropractor interview on blogtalkradio.com, one of the coaches at Rosen Coaching. Below is information from their website on the benefits of a coach.</div><br /><div><br />Benefits Of Working With A Coach</div><br /><div><br />What is needed?<br />Coaching is proven to work when two factors are present:<br />The client is willing to learn, grow and take action<br />There is a gap between where he/she is now and where he/she wants to be<br />That's all that is necessary for a successful coaching relationship where you can develop the right strategy, implement a plan of action, and achieve your goals. Anything is possible within our coaching relationship. With a coach you can:<br />Take More, Better, and Smarter Actions<br />Our first task together is to find out exactly what you really want for yourself. Once you create objectives that are clearly in line with your professional vision, you are much more likely to naturally and consistently take actions to reach them.<br />Have A Balanced Life, Which Works Well<br />Professional success is maximized when you enjoy a sense of personal fulfillment and life balance. We will discuss how to be selfish yet responsible, and how to carve out enough time so your life outside of work is exactly the way you want it to be.<br />Make Better Decisions<br />We will help you become focused as you share ideas with us. We will understand you and be subjective enough to want a lot for you, yet objective enough not to be biased or self-serving. You'll also find that just talking about your options with someone who really listens is often enough to clarify things.<br />Reach For More-Much More<br />When you have a partner you trust, you will reach for much more because you can afford to. Are you ready to think big and really live your life fully? I am a partner who will enable you to take your life wherever you want it to go.<br />Make and Keep More Money<br />Most people are worth a lot more than they are making. Are you happy with your financial situation? If not, we can look at your beliefs about money and address whatever is keeping you from experiencing financial abundance.<br />Have More Sustainable Energy<br />Together we'll identify the things that drain your energy, and create a long-term strategy to eliminate them. In addition, we'll focus on the things that give you energy, and explore how to maximize their impact. When you're happy, productive, and free from tolerations and problems, life is a lot more fun!</div>The Last Chiropractorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16337408484241465516noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1408071001625713223.post-10821411797138483952009-11-26T17:05:00.001-08:002009-11-26T17:20:16.019-08:00Happy Thanksgiving<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZeEDbdmFgk1ru0RVFmU-ZM0bokj0WA2sgisJ8OEX4W_qaQ2boLcLX4bTD1zsdxiVgX7gRzqmwJkpxPbUaEg480G9QcysBi6OoMFU38KqVcKBkLeHIk5-oI52LpKx9EAvcuOLuDNICGM/s1600/thanksgiving.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5408586190924848418" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 160px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZeEDbdmFgk1ru0RVFmU-ZM0bokj0WA2sgisJ8OEX4W_qaQ2boLcLX4bTD1zsdxiVgX7gRzqmwJkpxPbUaEg480G9QcysBi6OoMFU38KqVcKBkLeHIk5-oI52LpKx9EAvcuOLuDNICGM/s200/thanksgiving.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Thanksgiving is a great time to reflect on all of the things in our lives that we are thankful for, to spend time with friends and family, recharge our batteries and get ready to end the year on a strong note.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>As a Chiropractor I am thankful to be able to practice Chiropractic as it was designed to be practiced.

It is as simple as that.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>It doesn't matter what technique you are using, it matters what your pre and post analysis is to make sure that you removed any or all of the subluxations present on that particular visit. If you want to be 100% congruent and of the highest integrity you must be willing to do post checks after your adjustments or else you can't honestly say that you did your best at removing subluxation on that visit.</div><div> </div><div>Some chiropractors think the most important thing on each visit is patient education/communication. I agree that patient education/communication is very important, however, if you do a great consult, exam, report of findings, and orientation, the patient will be on the right track with chiropractic and you can continue to do thirty second tips of the day and questions to further their chiropractic understanding and education of chiropractic. </div><div> </div><div>If you don't correct the interference between the brain and the body and can't back that up with post checks, then this will lead to uncertainty, contradiction, and doubt. I wouldn't want to go to a doctor that was uncertain, contradictory and full of doubt.</div>The Last Chiropractorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16337408484241465516noreply@blogger.com2
