From all the 'critters' and volunteers at Clarington Pet Have you ever thought about the rising number of sick people? When 1 say sick 1 don't mean the person you work with that seems to always have a cold - 1 mean the people walking around with disease we just didn't see a few years ago. In North America it is estimated that one in two will die of heart disease, one in three will die of cancer, people are living in chronic pain, childhood illness is considered normal and asthma rates are up thirty to sixty percent depending on where you live. The amount of disease is epidemic in our population. The word disease is a combination of dis and «tse. Dis means "apart from" and ettsc means "state of balance". It follows that dis-ease is a lack of comfort, a loss of harmony in the system. When there is a lack of harmony in music, the musician adjusts the notes to complement one another and "work well together". Unlike music, where discord is immediately apparent, damage from nerve interference is not so obvious at first. The unfortunate aspect of this "dis-ease" is that it need not be painful to silently destroy the body's health and well being. Gradually, the body's life support systems begin to fail and the ability to live a full life diminishes. Nerve interference is often referred to as a silent killer, because it may be present for many years before symptoms arise. It can quietly, painlessly undermine your health before any warning signs appear. Researchers at the University of Colorado found only the weight of a dime decreased the information travelling along a nerve by sixty percent. The causes of nerve interference are numerous and often, unavoidable. They can be caused at birth, if the delivery is difficult or requires the use of forceps. Many births result in subluxations. Children during the critical growing years, fall while learning to walk. In later years they engage in activities like soccer or hockey and many other kinds of sports which can cause subluxations. Other spinal problems can be caused by a junk food diet or having poor sleeping positions. Many seemingly harmless activities can disturb the integrity of the nerve system. As adults many things can weaken the spine, and cause nerve interference. This list includes; sports accidents, automobile collisions, falls in the house, bad posture, emotional stress, dental problems, pushing ourselves past our limits, alcohol and drug abuse or even carrying heavy briefcases or handbags on a daily basis. Chiropractic adjustments correct or reduce nerve interference. To ignore nerve interference and not have your spine-checked regularly by a chiropractor is to invite disease to overwhelm your body and impair the quality ol your life.
