The Man in the White Coat

I spend my day living my life with my husband sharing our passion for health. We wake up every morning and thank God for a bright day that is ahead of us. Why can't that be the norm for all. Instead, I go to the store and see men, women, and families in line waiting to get the latest and greatest drug for the most common illness, or better yet, I hear stories of how individuals are tired of being sick all the time.

Health comes from within. Our bodies are the most intelligent system out there but we continue to close our eyes to this when we are in dis-ease. We do not have think to blink, breathe, move our extremities, or the like - it just happens. Why can't we just believe our bodies can do amazing  things like heal. To this day, it surprises me to think that individuals will understand all of this as we are sharing our passion of health with them, but as soon as a little sniffle comes, they run to the "man in the white coat" and believe everything he says - even if it is not his specialty. I sometimes believe that if they were told to jump off a building because it was the latest cure, they would.

The body is one entity. Everything works as one - that is the nervous system. The first part of our being to be developed is the brain and the nervous system. This nervous system is so important that it is protected by bone (the spine). This spine develops with bends to give it buoyancy to adapted to our everyday living. There are millions of nerves that run through the spine that effect every part of our body (cells, organs, muscle - everything). When we feel dis-ease, normally there is some type of interference or pinch. The only, and I stress, ONLY doctor that can correct this is a chiropractor - not a message therapist, not a general practitioner, and not a orthopedist.

If you twist a garden hose while the water is on, it will either slow to a trickle or stop completely. What do you think your nerves do when you pinch them.  Pinched nerves show up as asthma, headaches, ear infections, numbness, gallbladder issues, ulcers, constipation. A specific bone or two has to be properly adjusted to take the pressure off of the nerve and have that nerve flow working or moving at full speed. Taking drugs, injecting our bodies, or permanently fusing bones together will not work. You hear constantly that duplication is powerful. Well, folks, it is. If your body is producing healthy cells your body will duplicate healthy cells. On the same idea, if your body is producing unhealthy or bad cells, what do you think it is going to duplicate? Unhealthy or bad cells equal disease.

Patient: "Doctor, I have chronic headaches. What can I do to get rid of them permanently?"
Doctor: "Mrs. Bubble, I have the latest scientific cure for you. Go to the roof of this building, walk to the edge, and then jump off. When you land, for a small instance you may experience a small side effect,but your headaches will be permanently gone."

The Riddle

It makes the poor man king and when it steals away, the rich man becomes a pauper indeed. It is health, the most precious gift of life.
CHIROPRACTIC
is most effective in regaining health because it is a system built on natural law
-the law which says that health comes from within.

What Are You, Crazy? Chiropractic and Pollen, Allergies, and Sinus Problems

Just think about it. Not every person is born with allergies, asthma, sinus problems, and who knows how many more challenges. Why is that? You know, I can't give you a scientific reason why but I sure can give you a mom's point of view that has seen more health success in my family because of only one change - CHIROPRACTIC.

We are all conceived the same way. We all develop the same way. Unfortunately, what mom does while we are growing plays a huge part in our future. I am not saying moms do anything wrong. Moms are exposed to so many challenges every day. We have stress! Face it, stress harms or kills. Stress can be in the form of chemical, physical, and emotional. Now try to show me one person that does not fall in that category. I don't believe there is one. But I will stand corrected if you can show me one. I have found that it is hard to avoid stress; however, we can help our bodies handle stress easier. That is CHIROPRACTIC. I have been under care for over 23 years now and my body knows when it needs to be "checked." Checked is simply having my spine examined by my chiropractor to see if my body is trying to fight whatever challenge I am facing that day. By doing this, I am making sure my immune system is working at 100% to fight off the bad germs.

When my daughter was ill constantly up until the age of 2-1/2 years of age with ear infections, I was at whits-end. Just like moms today, we try to find whatever we can to ease our child's discomforts. No parent wants to see their child feeling uncomfortable. In today's world, we are all beginning to seek out that "natural" way of living. If we are seeking natural, why are we still medicating? Medicating is not natural. We see more commercials and hear more talks about the wonders of these new over-the-counter all natural "pills." Seriously, are we that dumb? I don't know, perhaps we are because the last time I checked, pharmaceutical companies are still growing strong in a "bad economy." Are you really prepared to care for your child for the rest of his/her life if they experience a side effect from these natural medications that we do not truly educate ourselves on. I had to question myself on that, plus I had family and friends constantly criticizing mine and my husband's choice of health care. We heard over and over again, "how can you do this?," "what are you thinking?," "how can you seriously not take your child to a doctor?" Well, we educated ourselves. We decided we were going to take control of our health not our family, not friends, not the government - just us. We took full responsibility for how our children were going to live their lives - healthy. CHIROPRACTIC has NO side effect.

What has got me on such an uproar? I am sitting here watching a tv show about doctors and health care. They are promoting healthier living but it all goes back to the newest and latest procedures available and medicine - trying to heal from the outside in. CHIROPRACTIC is healing from the inside in. Come on, we are grown people, why can't we think for ourselves? We did wonderful for years before the insurance companies and drug companies controlled our futures. We are sicker today--not because we do not have health insurance--but because we do not know how to take care of ourselves.

Now my family is not perfect. We are still struggling with the choice we make every day especially when it comes to food choices. However, my children do not get sick like others - if they miss school, normally it is our choice not because they are ill. They still get colds like others but they may be uncomfortable for 1 or 2 days max but can function fully during this time. My children, other than my oldest, has not had a medication in their bodies at all. After 2-1/2 years of my oldest being sick, we took control and our kids are healthy.

Mystery

Whence life comes or where it goes is perhaps the greatest mystery of all times. All we know is the way in which it is expressed.
Chiropractic is the modern health science, founded on an accurate knowledge of how life is expressed and why dis-ease exists. This health science points to it's record of getting sick people well as its best recommendation.

Open house at Blumsack Family Chiropractic is one week from today on April 1st. @ 2pm. Information, food and free exams. RSVP 770-362-6430.

Another Ear Infection? Seriously.

I just don't get it! Why do we have to always chase a symptom and then give it a drug that we know will not help. Ear infections should be left alone. Sure they hurt like crazy, are uncomfortable, cause fever and are scary - let the infection run its course. An ear infection is the body's reaction to germs or a virus moving into the ear. The body naturally fights off these germs by increasing its temperature through fever and sending white blood cells to fight it - this is the pus we see.

At some point, parents have got to say "enough is enough." That is exactly what my husband and I did. Our daughter was forever in the pediatrician's office with an ear infection. We did everything we were told. We even gave her antibiotics (even crushing the pill form because she did not know how to swallow a pill). We finally sought out Chiropractic care. Her overall health improved dramatically and NO more ear infections. So, when our son started showing signs of an ear infection, we increased his visits to the Chiropractor an let it run its course.

How does a parent just sit there and watch their child suffer in pain? It was tough. Within a day or so of his symptoms appearing, his white blood cells were producing enough pus that the fluid "popped" out of the ear and the pain was gone. We kept his ear clean and had him rest in addition to regular Chiropractic care and he was and is perfectly fine. That was his first and last ear infection and NO tubes. He is know 19 years old.

Frustrated with my child being sick so much

I ran into a friend and her son in West Cobb  (The Avenues) the other day and we began chatting about the weather and the pollen.  She was telling me how she was in the pediatrician office yet again for his allergies and the medication is he on again. I am sorry but something is not right. Yes the pollen is bad but why if you truly think about it, I mean truly think about it, why does he have allergies and another child does not. 

I spent the first 2 1/2 years of my daughter's life in the pediatrician's office with one ailment after another. Ear infections were the favorite. Finally after my husband getting furious at the doctor for giving us a pill versus a liquid medication (he literally had to crush the pill into a powder to hide in the food), we both said something has got to change. We had done everything right how could she be sick so much. 

We decided to try chiropractic. We immediately saw a change in our daughter. No more health problems. We survived the public school years with no challenges. Yes she would get a cold just like everyone but her body was able to handle it within a day or two. If she missed school, it was because we chose to miss not because she was ill. I never worried about the germs and who had what. Her body was now able to fight off anything coming at her because her immune system was stronger. She no longer needed to see the pediatrician or needed medication. YES I said it no pediatrician visits no medications. That is prescribed or over-the-counter. Because of her health, we have raised all five kids with chiropractic. 

YES five children under only chiropractic care. WOW. Chiropractic care is my families health care.
