Article No, 28 Chiropractic For Health The entire Chiropractic Science broadly considered is just this: 1, The brain, as the great dynamo of the nervous system, sends its trunk lines through the cable of the spinal column—the backbone. Each trunk nerve emerges from openings between the vertebrae or bones of the spine, and going to the various organs, branches into hundreds of hairlike offshoots, controlling the movements and actions of the whole body. 2. Frequently, through disease, ac- cident or neglect, the bones of the spine become disarranged—jarred or forced to @ gre from their proper alignment. When this happens the nerve trunks are squeezed between vertebrae wedged together. 8. Nerves subjected to pressure are affected injuriously, just as are blood vessels, They lose their vitality— force; their control of organs which they serve is impaired and functional disease , follows. If neglected the case becomes ite, then chronic. 4, Readjustment of the bones of | the spine which become wedged frees the nerve from pressure, allows it to become strengthened by normal action of nature and enables it to re- sume its proper control over the part | of the body which it serves. These | organs, in tutn, are revivified and re- | stored and the ailment disappears. The Chiropractor considers “dis- casé” what it literally is, “Not ease,” He aims not to cure to but to restore “ease” and let nature do the curing.
