Chiropractic In Danger

Joe: Dear BJ, you said that your father wrote that he adjusted fourth dorsal (T4) to restore Harvey Lillards hearing (fist ever chiropractic patient, 1895). You were there?
BJ: Yes. He wrote fourth dorsal but it was atlas.
Joe: Who is right?
BJ: I know what I saw was upper cervical, I don't know why he wrote T4 but I have a feeling it was because of the medical profession at the time.
Joe: What did they have to do with it?
BJ: Well, I think it was because of a safety issue. The medics would shout "don't let them touch the neck, don't let anyone toy with your neck..."!!!!!
Joe: Astounding!
BJ: They created fear in the public.
There are communities in your world, today, discovering the Internet. Their voices are suppressed. Their BLOGs are cut. Countries where totalitarian rule governs what can and can not be said. Communist governments are spending much resources trying to eliminate free speech BLOGging.
Do you think its any different out there about the so-called dangers of manipulation? What rotten nonsense!
Joe: I know, I wrote a site called chiropracticsafety to create information on this
BJ: Good luck. Chiropractors were not taught to manipulate by me. Anyway its just a word. What you do as a chiropractor is very skilfull... careful... methodical...beneficial...wonderful!
Not this neck cracking business! A foul mess that is.
Joe: So even then, back a hundred years ago the same thing went on...now all they can come up with to counter our efficacy is a question of safety. A recent paediatric study found that virtually no child had been hurt, ever, and they still recommended safety cautions to all users of manipulation.
BJ: A FOUL and abominable excuse for research. These people should be behind bars for inciting panic and, more importantly, for demeaning scientific research to a political stunt.
Anyway, Atlas is the key my friend. Its not the only thing in the health equation. But if you do not claim it, in the name of my legacy of work, just as your friend Greg Buchanan so vehemently states, you will leave it to others with less noble motivations at heart.
