Cause or Effect

Motor vehicle warning gauges.

Like your vehicle, our bodies give us warning signs when things are amiss.

Many of us have been misled into thinking pain is a problem. Headache? Numb it. Gall bladder malfunctioning? Remove it. Sore throat? Soothe it.

But pain is the effect, not the cause.

We occupy this miraculous self-healing, self-regulating organism, and if we’ll listen, it warns us when things are wrong. First, with a little whisper. Then a serious warning. Or finally by SHOUTING!

Then we have to make a choice: address the underlying cause (fixing the problem) or merely suppress the warning signs (taking drugs/aspirins for the pain).

Chiropractic care produces great results by attending to the cause, rather than merely suppressing symptoms.
