Chiropractic First: The Fastest Growing Healthcare Choice Before Drugs or Surgery

This book explains why people should use chiropractic before surgery or drugs.

Longtime chiropractic promoter and practitioner Rondberg pitches this guidebook to the general public. He tells us about D. D. and B. J. Palmer, father and son, who discovered and built chiropractic, then outlines chiropractic principles and activities. Vertebral subluxation (misalignment of vertebrae), now usually called nerve interference, is, chiropractic maintains, the cause of most human ills. Chiropractors use X rays to identify this problem and correct it by adjustment (often called manipulation by laypersons). The body's innate intelligence is said to be its ruling force, and chiropractors assist its full use. Children, middle-aged, and elderly alike can benefit from chiropractic, which deserves a high place in health care because it concentrates on causes rather than effects or symptoms and is not expensive. Libraries should, however, accompany this book with Magner's Chiropractic. William Beatty
