Experts acknowledge Chiropractic for Headaches...

" We've been able to put together a scientific explanation for
how neck structure causes headaches... Chiropractors have been
saying for years."

Peter Rothbart, M.D., F.R.C.P.C
North American Cervicogenic Headache Society

"X-rays findings link the cervical spine with tension type headache"

Arata Nagasaw, M.D.
Research physician - Japan

"One of the most thorough studies of migraine
patients... over a fifty year period found patients receiving
chiropractic care showed an improvement or cure rate
of 72% to 90%"

Studies compiled by Dr. Stuart Wight, D.C.

"I was astonished by the results I got for my own headaches as a result of chiropractic care. As a neurologist I am aware of the many causes of headaches requiring medical or neurological care but was not aware that chiropractic could provide results of such magnitude..."

Research Shows Improved Immunity Through Chiropractic
In 1986, Ronald Pero, Ph D., collaborated with Joseph Flesia, D.C., chairman of the board of directors for the Chiropractic Basic Science Research Foundation, Inc. With a hefty grant from CBSRF, they began a research project at the University of Lund in Lund, Sweden. Using Pero’s tests to gauge resistance to hazardous environmental chemicals, they hypothesized that people with cancer would have a suppressed immune response to such a toxic burden. While healthy people and people receiving chiropractic care should have a relatively enhanced response.

Measuring 107 individuals who had received long-term chiropractic care Pero’s team turned up some surprising findings. All chiropractic patients were “genetically normal” – that is, they had no obvious genetic reasons for increased resistance or susceptibility to disease. Any difference, therefore, had to be accounted for by environmental or therapeutic factors. The chiropractic patients also had 200% greater immune-competence that people who had not received chiropractic, and 400% greater immune-competence than people with cancer or other serious diseases. Surprisingly, despite a wide range of ages in this study, the
immune-competence did not show any decline with age – it was uniform for the
entire group.

Pero concluded that “chiropractic may optimize whatever genetic abilities you have” so
that you can fully resist serious disease. “I’m very excited to see that without chemical
intervention… this particular group of patients under chiropractic care did show a very
improved response.” he told CBSRF. “These changes occur from chiropractic treatment.”

"The Doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest
his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause
and prevention of disease."
