Chiropractors are not quacks

by Gabe Pujol

What you will see on my blog today is the benefits and just the gist of one of the many sensational health science careers. The reason why I bring topic up is because I can see myself doing this type of work. If you don't know the study of chiropractor, chiropractor is based on the medical system theory that disease and disorders are caused by the misalignment of bones especially the spine. When I was younger I always wanted to do something I liked to do. I like cracking different parts of my body to make me feel better however, I did not know that something like that can be a job. I love cracking others bones but I have not used any chiropractor techniques based on me not having enough experience.



Earlier above I said that I did not use any chiropractor techniques, you might be saying "what kind of techniques." There are many techniques in aligning the spine and neck and fixing other issues however, if not used properly serious injury may be a result. These include and not limited to tissue laser therapy. Tissue laser therapy is when they use their lasers, (yes this sounds science fiction but its real) to reduce the inflammation in your tissue which will reduce the swelling in peoples backs so they get instant relief. Another great technique used by a chiropractor is called cervical adjustments. This type of technique is used to help the pain and soreness of the neck by applying a controlled but sudden force to a joint, pushing it farther then what it usually goes to. This is intended to move joints that usually have a hard time moving and help soot scarred tissue from things like whiplash and other trauma injuries. There is also a technique that you might have heard before and it’s called acupuncture. People might not know this but acupuncture is a form of chiropractor. Acupuncture is the form of old medicine where needles are inserted into different pressure points to help the flow of energy through different meridians in the body. Another way to say that is using needles in certain areas to help with nerves that might get you to tense up. Acupunctures also use heat so muscle tissue begins to relax in certain areas and much more.



Now that you know the procedure of chiropractor let’s get to the fun stuff, the benefits of chiropractic use. Chiropractor has been proven to help a lot in our daily lives. The use of a chiropractor has been proven to help with diabetes, "Yeah diabetes." According to Dr. B.J Hardwick chiropractor helps the nervous system that affects your pancreas which leads to helping your blood sugar lower. For a better explanation visit    http://www.hardickchiropractic.com/index.php/patient-resources/articles-2/hypoglycemia-natural-solutions-for-low-blood-sugar.html for more information. You don't need to have high blood sugar to go to the chiropractor, chiropractor has also been used to help with posture of the back which will prevent you from the widely known problem for old people, and hunch backs. It helps with preventing hunch backs because it straightens the back which will most likely stay that way later. The benefits of chiropractor has been even used for sports players like tennis players. Tennis players can go to chiropractor for a commonly known injury called tennis elbow. Tennis elbow can be fixed with the use of chiropractor. Not only chiropractor can help with the pain from sports it can make you better at them. there has been a study on chiropractor by LA Times has been shown to help runners by improving their reaction times (http://www.latimes.com/style/ara-8084430512-20140612-adstory.html.) when you have a better reaction time you can obviously use that to your advantage in sports . For basketball better decisions on whether to shoot pass or dribble. For soccer you will have an easier time passing to teammates and kicking the ball into the goal. This was not proven yet but there is even speculation that chiropractor can help prevent you from getting the common cold. I guess chiropractor has been said to help with fighting common cold cells and boosting your immune system.



You might wonder and many people do wonder what makes a chiropractor different from any other doctor. If you live in the U.S you usually go to western medicine doctors. The difference between chiropractor and modern western medicine is that chiropractors rarely use medication for their patients it is as natural as it gets. Another difference between the two is that chiropractor is derived from old oriental medicine that was used much longer than the modern western medicine techniques, it has been documented that chiropractor has been around for over 2000 years. Not to be biased because both procedures are good for their own reason however, chiropractor has been recognized as one of the safest treatments ever. Chiropractor is obviously more hands on where western medicine just prescribe you something to fix your problem. Western medicine has a higher risk of having side effects since some western medicine doesn't sit well with some people. Since people still need to take medication for their problems they use trial and error to finally get what they want.  Chiropractor on the other hand has been recognized to help instantaneously and help even more lately. Chiropractor might be a good procedure for many things it is not a miracle medicine, meaning that don't try to use chiropractor to solve everything if it is mental go see a western medicine doctor and if you’re not seeing results that you want please go to western medicine to be safe.



Chiropractor is being used more than ever. If you experience any of the following that I listed above maybe it’s time for a change of action and you should start seeing a chiropractor. Many people have seen benefits of chiropractor and you should to.  Chiropractor helps with reducing muscle spasms, reducing recovery time, speculated but might be true which is enhancing the immune system, increases nutrient flow and much more. Chiropractor might be new to you but for people in the east it is as older as some people’s whole generation. In this case going back to old roots and not being all about efficiency and technology is good for a change.
