The Lighthouse Guides The Way
Over at the Atlas of Life Blog this morning Brandon Harshe records an interview with Dr. Arno Burnier – this is what he said was his most memorable moment:
“Of course I saw great outcome and many miracles like most Chiropractors in practice. Yet my most memorable experience came from a man nicknamed ‘Chick.’ He came in at noon on a Wednesday, without any appointment. He was in severe pain. There was no speaking to him as the pain was so intense that he was not available to listen. I adjusted his occiput and he broke down crying like a baby.
I later found out that my office was his last stop before committing suicide. He has passed my office countless times because we were on main street. He had seen the crowd in the waiting room and at the talks. He did not know anything about Chiropractic, had never gone to one. Something attracted him there as a last resort place to come to.
As it turned out he was a Vietnam Vet involved in the Mi Lai massacre. He could not live with himself any longer for having killed innocent babies, children and women.”
He still communicates with me regularly even though I left Yardley, PA 15 years ago to live in Colorado. Chiropractic saved his life.

Pigs roll in mud to keep cool because they don't have sweat glands. It also helps prevent sunburn and protects from insect bites.
For many people, summertime can be a time of frustration because they perspire, which they find annoying. Summertime is the time to sweat! It’s a natural process for the body to respond to the outside environment, and adjust itself through the constricting of blood vessels and nerves. Unfortunately people have been taught through the media to see sweating/perspiring as something objectionable – hence the introduction of anti-perspirants. By regularly using anti-perspirants – which suppresses the healthy action of sweating and getting rid of toxins – your body is forced to find an alternative outlet which automatically adds to the burdens of your body which is constantly struggling against the onslaught of environmental chemicals. By applying anti-perspirant underarms (which are also loaded with unhealthy chemicals) toxins are being introduced to the body via the lymph system which spreads throughout the breast area. Very dangerous indeed! Sweating from the hot,summer heat is a natural part of keeping your body healthy, and by trying to suppress this most natural of events, can lead to future health problems. The skin is the body’s
largest elimination organ which is used to throw off waste and toxins and should never be suppressed – Phyllis A. Balch, CNC, explains this in her book Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 4th Edition: A Practical A-to-Z Reference to Drug-Free Remedies Using Vitamins, Minerals, Herbs & Food Supplements.
We recommend using a natural salt deodorant which can be bought in good supermarkets or natural food stores. You can also make your own by making a solution of mineral rich sea salt and bathing the underarms after your shower. Sea salt contains up to eighty four different minerals which will be absorbed into your body, helping you to get a regular supply of vital nutrients.
By choosing “natural first” you are well on the way to helping your body heal itself naturally.
We believe in Natural First in every area of health. Take Advantage of our Complimentary Consultation Today to have your Nervous System checked for interference.

They Look Harmless. Don't Be Fooled!!
Hot on the heels of the information from Natural News about “pill popping” I came across the following article written by Dr James for The Lady magazine 20th July, 2010 and if you have any doubts about the effects of prescription drugs, please refer to Kerrie’s testimonial where she writes about the debilitating effects of drugs on her health – pills that were supposed to give her health!
“Many people nowadays find themselves taking a whole raft of different medicines, each of which will have its own side effects. When retired microbiologist Derek Baxby left hospital following a heart attack, he discovered he was expected to take no fewer than seven drugs a day. Being a conscientious sort of person he read the comprehensive information leaflets that came with each one – and calculated they offered him a choice of 130 different side effects. All of them could cause nausea and vomiting, he writes in the British Medical Journal. Most could cause kidney or liver problems; a rash or itching, diarrhoea or constipation; headaches chest pains or palpitations and dizziness and low blood pressure.
Indeed there is no more reliable and useful rule of thumb than that medicines are much the most likely cause of any symptom for which there is no obvious explanation – as illustrated by the experience of a woman prescribed Zestril for raised blood pressure. Six months after starting her pills she began to have episodes of nausea, vomiting and abdominal pains which were extremely debilitating. She consulted a gut specialist who did all the usual tests and, finding nothing wrong, told her she had a congested colon and commended the ever fashionable high-fibre diet.
Another six months elapsed during which she had a further dozen attacks before waking one night with a badly swollen tongue, later diagnosed as an allergic reaction which she was told was due to sensitivity to the house dust mite. This did nor ring true, she writes, so she did some research with the help of the internet and ‘imagine my surprise on discovering that both the bowel symptoms and tongue swelling were known side effects of Zestril – but not one of the doctors I consulted had made the connection.”
You will know from reading this blog that we promote the idea of self responsibility for our health by paying attention to Lifestyle practices – Eating Well, Moving Well and Thinking Well and by keeping the spine free of interference so that the body can heal itself naturally as it was designed to do. Before taking any medication we urge you to check out the side effects, and the effects of taking different drugs together by going to www.medicines.org.

The following information has been sourced from http://www.naturalnews.com/Index.html
There’s a pervasive (but false) idea in western medicine that the more pharmaceuticals you take, the healthier you’ll get. That’s how pharmaceuticals are marketed, in fact: Take these pills if you want to be healthier! If you take one pill, the ads claim, you’ll have a healthy heart. Another pill gives you healthy moods. Yet another pill claims to give you healthy bones… or pancreas function… or blood pressure.. or even a day-long erection. If you believe all this, it stands to reason that the more chemical pills you take, the healthier you’ll become, right?
But hold on a second. Think of the people you know who are taking five, ten or even over a dozen medications. Are they the healthiest people you know?
Probably not. Not by a long shot. In fact, if you really look closely at this issue, you’ll find that the more pharmaceuticals you take, the WORSE your health becomes.
Pharmaceuticals destroy your health in the long run. That’s because prescription medications are synthetic, non-natural chemicals that all have negative side effects. Most medications cause liver damage, kidney damage or brain damage of some kind when taken over a long period of time. Even common over-the-counter drugs like Tylenol can destroy your liver (http://www.naturalnews.com/026565_d…). Heck, even the FDA now admits that. In the real world, the game of pharmaceutical pinball is destroying people’s health and lives. People get put on one drug for one symptom, and then that drug causes three more symptoms. Then the patient goes to the doctor who medicates those three new symptoms with three more drugs. This silly cycle of drug “treatments” leading to yet more side effects continues until the patient either runs out of money or dies from the side effects of the medications (heart attack, liver failure, stroke, etc.).That’s how the game of pharmaceutical pinball really works. Except no matter how much medication you take, you never win. Only the drug companies win, and the longer you play, the more they win (and the more you lose). Say no to Big Pharma’s dangerous medications and look to foods, nutrients, herbal remedies and informed lifestyle choices to take care of your health naturally.
Lifestyle choices gives you back control of your health, not leaving it to chance. By paying attention to Eating Well, Moving Well and Thinking well you give your body the very best chance to heal itself naturally. Your Chiropractic care is part of “moving well”. Modern sedentary lifestyles (sitting, computer, tv etc) means your spine does not move as it should and it becomes stuck. Chiropractic care helps to keep it moving freely as it was designed to do, thus allowing full flow of nerve messages to every cell, tissue, muscle, gland and organ in the body giving it the opportunity to heal from the inside out, as it was designed to do!
