Ask Dr. Mike
What is the history of Chiropractic?
Spinal manipulation has been practiced since the beginning of recorded time. Chinese records from about 2700 B.C. provide one of the earliest written references to spinal manipulation . Early explorers reported stopping at Pacific islands and have women walk up and down there back to relieve pain. Chiropractic in the U.S. was first practiced by Daniel David Palmer who first performed spinal manipulation in 1895 on a patient, Harvey Lillard who had become partially deaf earlier after he felt something “give” in his back. David Palmer examined the back and gave an adjustment to what he believes was a misplaced vertebra in the upper spine. It was said that Harvey could not hear the wagons travel down the cobblestone streets of Davenport, IA. After the adjustment, his hearing was restored to normal.
Today, advocates of chiropractic are Jerry Rice, retired San Francisco 49‘ers wide receiver, Sarah Harding, former Ms. Fitness USA and every NFL football team. Athletes are looking for that extra edge, dance groups, golfers, basketball and baseball players have spoken and given testimonials as to how their game has improved and kept them at their peak performance.
May is National Stoke Awareness Month, a time to spread awareness about stroke prevention, symptom recognition and recovery. Understanding these three key areas of stroke can help reduce the incidence and impact of stroke. Most strokes can be treated. Act F.A.S.T. by recognizing and responding to stroke symptoms using the F.A.S.T. Method:
F = Face— Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?
A = Arm— Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward?
S = Speech— Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Does the speech sound slurred or strange?
T = Time— If you observe any of these signs, it’s time to call 9-1-1
If the opportunity arises, take the CPR course, just in case you need it.
As safeguards to prevent, B-complex taken daily works to control damage to the arterial walls and heart which can be further investigated by learning about homocysteine which can be found on the internet or library.
