The most modem, gleaming drug store staffed with a dozen learned pharmacists would make a sad showing compared with the human body’s genius in formulating the chemicals it needs for its own life and well-being. Indeed, the entire multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical industry cannot begin to match the chemical wizardry of just one human body — yours, for example.

 

FILLING YOUR OWN PRESCRIPTION 
Guided and prompted by its own nervous system, your body, besides all its other chores, works night and day as a sort of “super pharmacist” concocting, producing, assembling and combining thousands upon thousands of vital chemicals.

Your body generates its own hormones, enzymes, antibodies, digestive juices, and neurotransmitters, to name only a few biochemical categories. The brain alone creates many hundreds of different chemicals, perhaps as many as two thousand, scientists estimate, while the liver carries out hundreds more chemical functions and the body’s many glands deliver untold contributions to the chemical symphony.

All in all, the immensity of your body’s chemical projects is incalculable.

MIXING AND MATCHING 
Astounding, too, is the body’s natural ability to neutralize, dissolve, and otherwise disassemble its own chemical creations, then reassemble them into different chemicals, not only for sustaining its own health, but also for curing its own ills.

 

DRUGS SUPPRESS SYMPTOMS 
Despite all that, many people look to medicine or drugs of one relief, though it is well known that suppressing symptoms without correcting their underlying cause is asking for more serious trouble.

 

THE CHIROPRACTIC PRESCRIPTION 
That’s why chiropractic patients get their spine’s nerve circuitry checked first when health problems arise. Then if the primary cause proves to be altered nerve impulses due to pinched spinal nerves, the chiropractic doctor can go to the root of  the problem without delay. In this way, chiropractic care, through its direct influence on the nervous system, “writes the prescription” your body needs to bring its own chemistry into balance.

 

CHIROPRACTIC FIRST 
When distressing symptoms crop up, see your chiropractic doctor first, not last. The human body’s ability to heal itself is legendary, provided its nervous system is kept in good functional order through chiropractic care.
