Ever since I had
the blood clot in my leg and I was diagnosed with Systemic
Lupus, I began to look at life differently. In 1991, I began
my quest for a healthier life. It started by accident. I
had all the fillings in my mouth changed from metal over
a period of several months. I discovered I wasn’t
quite so tired anymore. That was my first revelation. Then
in October, 1993, I went to an herbalist. I went begrudgingly
at the insistence of a friend. As a result of that visit,
I began taking some vitamins, herbs and minerals. I began
to feel better and less tired. Back then I had arthritis
very badly (a main symptom of Lupus). When I awakened each
morning, I would count the joints that hurt. When I would
hit 17, I knew it was going to be a hard day.
Over the years
I have been on many medications. I didn’t
feel like I was getting any better, so I decided to stop
taking medications. The first time I came face to face with
changing my life on that level was when I wanted off the
steroid that I had been taking for a dozen years. My rheumatologist
argued with me. I told her if I needed to go back on the
medication, I would. It took over 2 years to get off the
Prednisone. I have never needed it since. At one time, I
was on 6 prescriptions that ran us over $300 per month. I
am now down to 1 prescription, the Coumadin, and it is my
goal to be off of it within a year.
My son Corey has been on Ritalin since he was in the second
grade (he is a junior now). Over the years, I have applied
the same thinking to taking care of Corey as I have taken
of myself. I heard an advertisement several times the first
quarter of 2005 about a specific problem Corey has. It
was an ad by Health Quest Chiropractic. I could see Corey
wasn’t getting any better, so I thought giving it
a try could help. In fact, my husband Randy was having
severe backaches and I suggested to Randy that he go. Randy
couldn’t even bend over to pick something up off
the floor because his back hurt so badly. After just a
week going, we could see both Randy and Corey making amazing
changes. Brian and I started going immediately. After just
3 weeks, Randy played 27 holes of golf in one day!
One thing
Dr. Miner said that really had a strong effect on me was:
In the history of the world we have never had more pharmaceuticals
than we do now. If pharmaceuticals are so great, why aren’t we all well? Chiropractic Bio
Physics is more detailed than Chiropractic adjustments. Dr.
Miner not only does adjustments, but also corrective adjustments
to correct our spines to the proper curvatures. We also do
daily exercises to serve that purpose. You monitor our progress
with photos and x-rays of our spines with computer software.
The spine is the freeway of the body, moving blood, nerve
impulses and good health throughout the body. When a freeway
is blocked with construction or a wreck, everything moves
slowly. Same is true with a kink in our spine. That is my
own personal analogy. Here’s a list of all that has
improved among the four of us. THIS IS A DIRECT RESULT of
doing Chiropractic Bio Physics.
Randy – No more back pain; Does not snore anymore;
Does not have indigestion problems anymore; Sleeps better
at night, more rested in the morning; Doesn’t take
Tylenol daily anymore, only takes it rarely; Usually gets
sick once in the fall – didn’t this year
Charlotte – Not having the headaches anymore; I used
to take Tylenol multiple times daily. I have taken 4 since
June; My bowel movements are regular and very smooth; I can
work longer hours without incident; I sleep better, more
rested in the mornings; I sleep less; Have gotten off 2 prescriptions
since August; Have not been sick since June; My lupus is
going completely into remission; Believe I am fixing my health
so I don’t get cancer; I have more energy consistently
Corey – Completely off Ritalin without any ill effects;
More alert; Seeing a marked improvement in his attitude;
Lessening of his learning disabilities; Sleeps better; Usually
gets a sinus infection in the fall, didn’t this year.
Brian – Sleeps better; Better attitude; More easygoing
Pharmaceutical
companies are the second strongest lobbyist organization in
this country. They have A LOT of control. That is the main
reason that you don’t see much of
the natural healing industry because the pharmaceutical companies
spend a lot of money to shutdown anything contrary to their
bottom line. They are VERY powerful. In order to try alternative
medicines, one must do research as I have done for years.
Thank
you, Dr. Allen, Wendy and Lindsay. Our family is more synergistic
because of you and your work. God bless you.
