You couldn't have said it better. Something that always angered me is hearing from doctors about the failure rate of new Chiropractors. That engrains failure into the new practitioners head which doesn't allow growth or the acceptance of a challenge. You now have an excuse to quit, and the more new docs that quit, the less likely of a chance for Chiropractic to be the #1 health profession in the world. We need to stand up and unite and encourage the young docs to be successful. You can talk all you want about the benefits of Chiropractic, but once someone experiences an Upper Cervical adjustment and the amazing benefits of it, then they WILL refer. Brandon...I am so stoked to have you in this profession as a friend and a colleague. Amen brother! You couldn’t have said it better.

It is amazing to me how many chiropractors there are out there that I meet who don't get this as well ... even upper cervical chiros! They will say they treat vertigo ... or sciatica, or a host of other things that tend to resolve when the upper cervicals are taken care of when really they do nothing of the kind. They treat the upper cervical misalignment and then the BODY takes care of the rest. One of my biggest beefs with "main stream" chiropractic as it stands right now is their absolute belief that chiropractic philosophy no longer has any part in what chiropractors do. Which is patently absurd if you are actually a CHIROPRACTOR rather than a chiropractic physiotherapist! Every patient I meet or potential patient I talk to has it explained very clearly and several times that I don't treat their symptoms ... I treat the misalignment. Not all of them get it, but I do everything in my power to make sure as many as possible do. One spine at a time! “chiropractic has absolutely nothing to do with diagnosing anything except vertebral subluxation.”
