“The Packers never lost a game…we just ran out of time.” — Vince Lombardi.
Coach Lombardi’s quote sums up his unwavering belief in his team’s ability to win every game if given enough time to execute their winning game plan. Chiropractors hold a similar, unwavering belief in your body’s innate ability to heal.
The 6th Principle in Chiropractic states, “there is no process which does not require time,” including the healing process. BJ Palmer (the developer of Chiropractic) believed that given enough time and a clear nerve system, the body could heal itself in just about any situation. In his mind, the innate wisdom of the body had the potential to win any healing game if just given a chance. This is the foundation of all successful Chiropractic experiences.
If you’ve been under Chiropractic care for some time and see only minimal results, don’t give up. The power that made your body designed all the plays needed to get you healthy and whole again. It won’t lose the game if you provide enough time on the clock.

Clark Griswold stands with bated breath and extension cord in hand as a childlike giddiness overtakes him. The family drum roll commences, he makes the anticipated electrical connection, and VOILA…nothing happens.
Clark has a power problem. Although the extension cords are all connected and each individual Christmas light has been inspected with precision, he’s still not connected to the source. It isn’t until his wife ‘adjusts’ the switch in the garage and turns the MAIN Power on that the light show begins. She’d actually make a good Chiropractor!
If your wiring is connected and your body parts have all been dutifully inspected by the best doctors in the world, you still won’t function to your potential if you’re not connected 100% to your source…the Life-sustaining Power that flows from your Nerve System. Make sure you and your family stay connected to it with regular Chiropractic care during this bustling holiday season.
During the flu epidemic of 1917-1918, both chiropractors and osteopaths noticed that their patients had a lower fatality rate, 0.25% than the medical profession at 5-6%. The conclusion of a paper written in 1919 was that subluxations suppressed the immune system and that removing them assisted the immune function. Now newer research shows that white blood cells increase with chiropractic adjustments. So the next time you want to cancel your appointment because you’re too sick, remember a chiropractic adjustment is just what the doctor ordered.
