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.
