Chiropractic is key for the treatment and care of emotional illnesses
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Mental health and chiropractic
Did you know that, over a forty-year period, Doctors of Chiropractic and chiropractic schools operated nearly two hundred hospitals? They were built on the principal that chiropractic care, with proper subluxation correction, a healthy, nutritious diet, exercise, fresh air and sunlight, had powerful healing effects. (1)
What especially amazed clinicians were the beneficial effects chiropractic had on those suffering from “mental and emotional disorders.” Chiropractic care was especially helpful for people who suffered from anxiety, “nervous disorders” (as they were then called) and more severe forms of emotional illness.
In time the chiropractic profession owned and operated two hospitals devoted to mental health: Clear View Sanitarium and Forest Park Sanitarium, both in Davenport, Iowa. Over a 40-year period, the chiropractic hospitals had greater success than the state mental hospitals. (2)
The results so impressed North Dakota circuit court judge A.W. Ponath that he consistently refused to send a patient to the state mental hospital unless they first spent time in the chiropractic institution. (3)
Why? Because without drugs, surgery (pre-frontal lobotomies) and electric shock therapy, chiropractic promoted real brain health and had a greater healing success rate.
Today chiropractors see many patients suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction, ADD, ADHD, autism and other conditions related to a dysfunctioning nervous system. (4)
Chiropractors are specially trained to locate nerve interference (spinal nerve stress) and release or correct it. Once your nerve interference is released your nervous system, especially your brain and spinal cord, is able to communicate with all your body systems – your immune, digestive, circulatory, endocrine and muscular systems as well as all the rest – to help them function closer to their potential and to improve your natural healing ability. (5)
Everyone of us in this (often) stress-filled world needs to see a Doctor of Chiropractic for a chance to enjoy some drug-free healthcare and less stress in their lives – it could make a big difference for your physical and mental health.

Does an aspirin regimen help or hinder your health?
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Daily aspirin?
In 1988 research suggested that some high-risk patients who took daily aspirin had fewer heart attacks. Drug companies began pushing daily aspirin use and some medical doctors began “prescribing” aspirin to prevent heart attacks.
But recent findings reveal that people without a history of cardiovascular disease (such as heart attack or stroke) are unlikely to benefit from a regular dose of aspirin, given the associated risk of internal bleeding.
The researchers found that aspirin in conventional daily or alternate day doses reduced the risk of total non-fatal cardiovascular disease events by just 10% – but this benefit was offset by a 30% increase in risk of life-threatening internal bleeding events. Aspirin is not a safe drug (actually there is no drug without dangerous side-effects). Look at this:
* 1,600 children die each year from allergic reactions to aspirin
* Patients with blockage of arteries to the brain are three times more likely to have a stroke if they are taking aspirin
* Dyspepsia and gastrointestinal hemorrhage occur in 31% of those taking 300 mgs. of aspirin per day
* Low doses of aspirin can increase the risk of brain hemorrhage
* Other side effects can include anemia, bleeding ulcers, confusion and dizziness, and numerous other problems (7)

Don't just suffer from headaches--Make them go away with Chiropractic care!
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Chronic headache in an eight-year-old. An 8-year old boy who suffered from chronic headaches for two years was brought in for chiropractic care. The headaches were described as sharp and throbbing, worse with noise, better when lying down, and located in the frontal skull area and occasionally lasted an entire day. He also suffered from sore throat, fatigue, queasiness, aches, pains and dizziness.
His parents brought him to a neurologist, psychologist and nutritionist with limited health improvements.
Initially the child was adjusted three times a week then progressed to a maintenance schedule of two times per month for a total of 86 visits in 20 months of care. Initially his cervical x-ray showed a flat spine – there was no curve. After 6 months of care his cervical lordosis (curve) was near normal for his age. His headaches and other symptoms resolved. (5)

Research is showing that high cholesterol = longer life!
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
Studies have shown that those with the longest lifespan have high cholesterol. How high, you ask? Over 300 and some as high as 500 mg/dl.
The idea that too much animal fat and high cholesterol are dangerous to your heart and vessels is nothing but a myth. Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine revealed that high cholesterol in those over 75 years of age is protective, rather than harmful and that low cholesterol is a risk factor for heart arrhythmias (leading cause of death if heart attack occurs). People with high cholesterol live the longest. (8)
Researchers from the University of Denmark report that about 15% of cholesterol lowering drug users over the age of 50 will suffer from nerve damage as a direct result of using statin (cholesterol-lowering) drugs. (9)

Chronic constipation in a child. A 7-year-old-boy presented for care with complaints of chronic constipation, headaches and neck pain. The boy had suffered from constipation since the age of three. At age 5, MDs prescribed enemas (three times per week) but this gave only temporary relief. By age 6, stool softeners and the laxative MiraLAX® were prescribed. Three to four weeks prior to chiropractic care, the boy had bowel movements of once per week.
Over the course of 6 weeks, the child had 10 adjustments. The mother reported that her son had bowel movements of 5-6 times per week without the need for laxatives. (6)

More support for breast feeding!
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
"Breast is best"
“Breast is best” is now accepted beyond all doubt as the proper nutrition for babies. Studies show that it’s also a very good thing for mothers. In fact, mothers who breast-feed have a lower risk of getting breast cancer (1) and breast-fed babies have a decreased risk of getting breast cancer when they grow up. (2) Women who breast-fed had less breast cancer and infants who were exclusively breast-fed for 16 weeks or more had a 50% lower rate of acute otitis media (ear infections). (3)
If breastfeeding is natural feeding, then formula feeding is artificial feeding. Obstetrician Mayer Eisenstein writes: "Formula is no magic concoction. Anyone who reads the ingredients on a can of infant formula will see that it is simply a recipe of cow's milk, sugar and water. Although “experts” may assure you that pasteurized cow's milk, refined sugar and chlorinated tap water is an adequate substitute for breast milk, there is no evidence (none) that this is true and mountains of evidence that infant formula can be detrimental to your baby's health.

Can a vaccine really prevent Cancer?
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
There is no proof that Gardasil®, touted as a cancer vaccine, is anything of the kind. Here is what immunologist Charlotte Haug, M.D., Ph.D. writes in her article in New Scientist:
Despite claims that the vaccine will cut cancer deaths by two-thirds or more, its overall effectiveness in the prevention of cervical cancer remains unknown and will not be known for decades.
Gardasil® is an experiment (on mostly our children) that has been linked to over one hundred deaths and thousands of injuries. (5)

Read all of the fine print before you get a flu shot!
We at Van Every Family Chiropractic Center of Royal Oak, Michigan, care about your health and well-being and strive to provide you with current information in a variety of health topics!
It's flu shot season--Wait a minute!
Drug stores and pharmacies are covered with signs offering flu shots. But before you, your relatives or your friends submit to getting injected with toxins and bizarre poisonous chemicals you should know a few things about this years’ flu shot.
First of all, the manufacturer has admitted that it doesn’t work.
That’s right, GlaxoSmithKline, the manufacturer of FluLaval®, actually puts it in the product insert (that little paper that comes with the vaccine with all the small print no one reads.) Don’t believe us? Here it is word-for-word:
There have been no controlled trials adequately demonstrating a decrease in influenza disease after vaccination with FluLaval®. (1)
Why get it if there’s no proof it decreases flu?
