Life Is All About CHOICE!!!!

Treatment is defined as anything done for a patient to alleviate a symptom or disease. Adjustment, on the other hand, means to bring into right relationship. This is what's being done in chiropractic: bringing vertebrae into right relationship. It is interesting that in addition to bringing two vertebrae into right relationship, that is, correcting a subluxation, what we are really doing is bringing into right relationship the innate intelligence of the body and the physical material, the matter of the body. The matter is not an expression of the intelligence as it was intended. The adjustment brings back into a right relationship the material and the non material parts of the body.

Let's take a closer look at the meaning of the term, innate intelligence. I will use an analogy to bring out a better understanding of this philosophically sound concept. When you jump off a bridge, whether you are fat, skinny, good, bad, beautiful, or ugly, whether you hate children and kick dogs or are the sweetest, most loving person in the world, you will hit the water at the same rate of speed. That is an impersonal, natural law or principle. Similarly, at Selimo Chiropractic located in the Parsippany area, I recognize that the innate intelligence of the body is an impersonal principle. It is not a small voice whispering in your ear telling you the correct answer on a test for which you never studied. It does not make decisions for you. It is not the Id, Ego, Soul or any other psychological, religious or mystical term. It is a principle of organization that causes matter to behave in a certain manner, that is, to adapt to its environment. It is the same in a one celled amoebae and in a 280 - pound middle linebacker. The only difference is the amount and the quality of the matter in which it works.

At Selimo Chiropractic, serving the Parsippany and Whippany areas, performing specific chiropractic adjustments for the purpose of helping the innate intelligence of the body to better express itself is the best thing anyone can do in the physical realm. Correcting as many subluxations as I can, in as many people as I can, for as long as I can, is ultimately the chiropractic objective in my office. When this occurs, structure is restored to the human body which in turn restores function back to every organ cell and gland in the body. As a result, people live a much better quality of life with less reliance on medication.

The choice is yours. I lifetime of outside in approaches with little to no success and a diminished quality of life and possibly becoming a pharmaceutical pin cushion in your "golden years", or a lifetime of enhanced human function resulting in a lifetime of "enhanced human potential"!

Are "Symptoms" Important?

While symptoms are not something that we at Selimo Chiropractic located in the Parsippany area treats, they are a fact of life and health. Their existence is real and an understanding of their role in health is necessary for the chiropractor and practice member.

A symptom has been described as an indication that the body is reaching the outer limits of its adaptive ability. That is a fairly good working definition. Clearly, when the body passes the outer limits of its adaptive ability, all symptoms cease. Death is the lack of adaptation. That is a pretty obvious conclusion. Not so clear and open to argument is the assumption that if the body is adapting perfectly it should never have any symptoms. And this last statement represents a common misconception that vertebral subluxation is the cause of all sickness and disease and if the body were free of vertebral subluxation, it would never get sick.

Symptoms arise from the inability of the body to adapt to external invasive forces. A good nerve supply guarantees nothing more than the fact that the individual will be able to adapt a little better. But there are still limitations of matter that come into play regardless of the presence or absence of subluxation. Under normal circumstances the body can adapt to external invasive forces and symptoms will not occur. Unfortunately, we do not live under normal circumstances. The world is an imperfect place, consequently we are subject to abnormal external invasive forces. Stepping off a curb is a normal part of every day life. It causes no symptoms because the body is able to adapt. Jumping out of a three story window will move the body toward the outer limits of adaptability and cause symptoms (the pain of legs breaking).

Let me give you an example to drive the point home. The body was designed to be resistant to microorganisms in a natural and normal amount. Being free of nerve interference will enable the body to live in this environment with these viruses and never show symptoms. having someone sneeze or cough in your face and subject your respiratory tract to billions of viruses is not normal or natural. Even being free of vertebral subluxation, it may be more than the body can handle (limitations of matter). In this case symptoms will appear. Therefore, symptoms could occur because of an abnormal exposure to viruses, bacteria, toxins, poisons, etc. or because subluxation has weakened the individual to normal amounts in the environment. Of course, other factors could also weaken the individual, such as a genetic defect.

In concluding, it is very important to build health within the body. One of the most important ways to do this is to have your spine checked on a regular basis for vertebral subluxation. At Selimo Chiropractic in the Parsippany area I strongly believe this is important because having your nerve system clear will strengthen your immune function so that, unless you are exposed to billions of viruses at once, 9 times out 10 you won't get sick.

Body, "Heal Thyself " !!

Well here it is. The groundhog has come out and didn't see his shadow so now I guess there is only about 4 weeks left to winter since it happen last week. Are you having fun with the snow? How many of you had your winter cold? Just how many pounds of snow did you move? And finally, did you get the wonderful "flu preventing" vaccination? Complete with thimiserol and mercury! Did it work? Just how many times did you get the flu prior to the vaccination as compared to after you started on the yearly regimen?
While you're pondering the answers to those questions, keep in mind that based the study of statistics, you can skew any research to support your belief in any decision you make. Also, let me also say that as a chiropractor practicing in the Parsippany area, my purpose in this blog is to challenge you to think outside the box of traditional medicine. If you do that, I promise that you won't be let down. In addressing this matter, I first want to state that if you seek the truth and find the truth, the truth will set you free.
Let me take you on a short journey back to chiropractic school. Its 1998, and I'm sitting in a microbiology class. The name of the teacher is Dr. Beck. Not only is he a chiropractor but he also has a master's degree in microbiology and biology from Miami University. So here I am in his class paying attention as usual. Not quite sure what the topic was but suddenly appearing in his hand was an article that he brought in from a newspaper. The article went into discussing the benefits and dangers of the "flu vaccination". "People" he said, " there is something you need to know about this particular vaccine"! " The fact of the matter is that the vaccine and especially the way they are going to mass distribute it, from a biological standpoint makes NO practical sense! Why? Because there are thousands of different strands of flu virus every year and unless they have a crystal ball there is no way from a micro-bilogical standpoint for them to determine what strand of flu will be prevalent from year to year. As a result it is my belief, and the belief of other researchers, that the flu vaccination is not only unnecessary but also absurd and can be potentially dangerous"!!!
That was back in 1998. Did you know that before they started giving this vaccine only 10,000 people annually died from the flu? Since TRYING to make the vaccine mandatory there are currently 40,000 people dying per year? My question to you is simply this. Is the flu vaccine working? Did you know that Louis Pasteur, father of the germ theory stated on his death bed that "germs are not the only cause of disease"!? Disease is also based on the strength of the immune system of the host! If you have ever gone away and used a big old Jet plane you may have come home sick after your vacation. Actually, you weren't sick although your body may have been expressing symptoms. My question to you is this: If the "germ theory", with which they base the formation and the distribution of every vaccine is accurate, how come everyone on every flight doesn't get sick? I have yet another more important question: If the "germ theory" is not accurate should we be mass vaccinating every single man, woman, and child and therefore exposing them to very dangerous chemicals that will cause significant illnesses such as Alzheimer's and various forms of cancers long term?
At Selimo Chiropractic, which serves the greater Parsippany area, it is my intention to educate you on the truth about your health and through specific spinal chiropractic adjustments help your body's immune system to function at a higher level. The best thing you can do as far as preventing disease and stay healthy is to make sure your immune system is as functioning as efficiently as it can by eating the right foods, getting at least 7 hours of sleep, and having the white blood cells (leukocytes) boosted naturally with chiropractic adjustments.

Sincerely, Dr. Pat
