The Big Idea
The following was inspired by and often paraphrased from the
writings of the founder of Upper Cervical Care as we know it, Dr. BJ
Palmer
Just think…the power that you wield should you choose to make the most of it…
A slip on a snowy sidewalk is a small thing; it happens to millions. A
fall off a bike or a ladder, a trip and a tumble; these are small
things that also happen to millions. The slip, fall, or tumble produces
a brainstem subluxation; the brainstem subluxation is a small thing.
The brainstem subluxation produces interference within the hub of the
body’s control center and throws off the body’s foundational balance;
that is technically a small thing. That interference decreases the flow
of information from the brain and the foundational shift causes the
rest of the body to physically compensate; that decreased flowing and
structural adaptation is technically a small thing. That decreased
flowing and structural adaptation produces a diseased body and brain far
less resilient than it’s inherently capable. That is a big
thing to the individual suffering due to that brainstem subluxation.
Then, amplify that already sick person’s condition by poor nutritional
habits, a sedentary lifestyle, and completely inadequate stress
management skills.
Multiply that sick person by twenty thousand and you significantly
weaken the physical and mental welfare of a city. Multiply that sick
person by ten million and you significantly weaken the physical and
mental destiny of a state. Multiply that sick person by 319 million and
you can forecast and prophesize the physical and mental downfall of a
country. So the slip or the fall or the tumble, the brainstem
subluxation, the internal interference, the reduced flow of information
from the brain, the structural imbalance, the lack of nutritional
education, the sedentary and high stress lifestyle, and the disease(s)
that follow are big enough to control the thoughts and actions of a nation.
Now comes along a person; any one person is a small thing. This person
gives an upper cervical correction or tells a loved one about how to
find a person who gives an upper cervical correction; the correction or
the conversation that ultimately leads someone to a person who makes a
correction are small things. The correction removes the brainstem
subluxation; that too is a small thing. The correction of the brainstem
subluxation eliminates the interference within the hub of the body’s
control center and re-establishes the body’s foundational balance; that
is technically a small thing. The return to normal internal function
and structural balance restores health to a person; that is a big
thing to that person! Amplify that well person’s health by better
nutritional habits, an active lifestyle, and strong stress management
skills. Multiply that well person by twenty thousand and you step up
the physical and mental welfare of a city. Multiply that well person by
ten million and you increase the efficiency of a state. Multiply that
well person by 319 million and you have produced a healthy, wealthy, and
highly capable country both for now and in the future.
You never know how something you say or do today could affect the lives of millions tomorrow.
The correction of the brainstem subluxation to eliminate the
interference within the hub of the body’s control center and to
re-establish the body’s structural balance in combination with proper
nutrition, the right kind of activity, and sound strategies for stress
management to restore health is BIG enough to rebuild
the thoughts and actions of the world. The idea that we can correct the
causes of disease is one of the biggest ideas known. Without it,
nations fall; with it, nations rise.

"The Single Most Underrated Aspect of Healthy Living"
Have you ever gotten frustrated with your doctor for telling you that
"stress" is the reason why your health is suffering? It seems like an
ellipsis is attached to the end of such statements, does it not?
"You're probably just stressed...." The words of wisdom that tell you
what to do about said stress rarely come. The thing is, he or she is at
least partially right in all likelihood. Stress wreaks havoc on your
health. The problem is that you go home from being reminded how
stressful your life is without any tools to manage it. That changes
today. Listen in....answers await.
Coming in April!
