For years the truth about how your body works,as known by the chiropracatic profession has been referred to as “THE BIG IDEA.” Today while studying for this post I came across the above video. The parallels of this spinal research into paralysis is exactly on point with the power of a chiropractic adjustment for the common spinal disturbances I correct daily in our adjustment suite here at Pike Chiropractic. I recommend taking a moment to view this realization of Christopher Reeve’s dream on YouTube. “‘Epidural Stimulation reminds the spine of its potential” in the same way exactly as the chiropractic adjustment does only with the surgical implantation.
“The therapy involves implanting a device that’s wired to the paralyzed patient’s spinal cord and applies an electrical current, which helps provide signals that would normally come from the brain, according to the foundation’s “The Big Idea” website.
It noted that the treatment also improved the four men’s bladder and bowel control, sexual function, and cardiovascular capabilities.”
Hi friends and PCHC FANS. Isn’t this research and its implications amazing?! Thanks for your attention to the content and concepts shared on this page. 2015 is the 2X year for Pike Chiropractic’s Health Freedom Lifestyle. Yes it is. This means that with your help, Pike Chiropractic’s impact on the community will double! I”m asking you to help my begin this exciting adventure today by telling two friends about this page. We can raise the total
likes to 1000 by March 24th – my birthday! Thanks in advance for your participation in this important mission. What is so important about it? Subluxation in the spine of a human being deprives them of quality and quantity of LIFE! How and why is the role of subluxation so much bigger than has been understood? BECAUSE. Because subluxation of the electro-chemical communications between your brain and your body’s 3 trillion cells changes everything in both over time. Consider what happened to Christopher Reeve in 1995. I am not over – dramatizing subluxation and I’m going to prove it on this page every day. Subluxation caused Reeve’s death in 2005 at the age of 52.Yes, his subluxation was catastrophic in nature and involved fracture of the second vertebra in his upper neck during an equestrian competition. During the last nine years of his life Reeve’s became a hero for those affected by spinal injury. Research into this by Team Reeve is groundbreaking as the above video demonstrates. Because of my 35 years in chiropractic I see the significance of this research as proof and a powerful endorsement of the BIG IDEA underlying our profession;s much ridiculed and maligned approach to health care since 1895.
It is said that death and taxes are the unavoidable blights of our lives. I’d like to introduce another tax that I know about which is far more inconvenient and financially significant in its impact on our lives. This is THE IGNORANCE TAX. So just how BIG a problem is our ignorance? Ignorance about the truth of chiropractic adjustment leaves people in doubt and fear instead of running to experience this revolutionary solution. Spinal subluxation is the most common cause of spinal dysfunction in the history of the human race.

If as the Reeve Foundation’s videos portray the ‘epidural stimulation project’ is the “definition of victory over…paralysis” then it is equally true that the chiropractic adjustment is the definition of victory over the spinal subluxation.
It is my opinion that the majority of the improvements in the lives of those who spend time doing yoga and other forms of movement and exercise are due to the spontaneous correction of the subluxations in their spines which would otherwise accumulate and degenerate their spinal signal causing incremental loss of health in every way possible. Does yoga or Pilates eliminate all a persons long lived spinal subluxation? Of course not. That is why regular spinal checkups by your wellness chiropractor are so very important. What is true is that the healthier you become the better the less susceptible to becoming subluxated you will be.
Today’s adjusting suite story is about a 15 year old who’s sub-station scans and x-rays showed upper spine subluation at C1 and C2 with secondary compensatory postural changes in all three of his natural spinal curves. My 10 second health test revealed marked weakness in his left arm with left head rotation. His first corrective adjustment was by instrument to C1. Within seconnds his marked left sided weakness disappeared completely. His life is changed forever. Today at 10:30 am after living through his subluxated spine since birth, he began a process of subluxation correction which will be monitored by the sub station muscle, thermal and heart rate variability scans. His current Core Score is good at 84.
