Chiropractic Care for Chronic Ear Infections
Erica had been having serious and agonizing ear infections since she was 6 months in age. So far, in an insignificant forty-some months of life she had been the subject of having her ear drums punctured with tubes placed in them. She spent the majority of her life on antibiotics and various other drugs. This was a living hell of unbearable agony and sleepless nights for Erica and her mother and father.
Erica was almost four. 8 weeks back this shy little girl came to the clinic holding the hem of her mother's skirt. Erica's mummy and father were not absolutely certain why they'd brought their child to a chiropractor's office. Her ma was only following the guidance of a trusted chum who had maintained that she bring Erica to see me.
Erica's pop was first to get right to the point. "Can you cure ear infections?" He announced, with a strange twist of hope and disbelief. "Actually," I said, "I cannot." Any trace of hope fell from the young couples face and the father's expression began to toughen. "Then why are we here?" he asked, indicating his suspicion was being confirmed that this was all a real error. "I did not say that your girl can't get better," I revealed, "only that I won't cure ear infections." In the instant of silence that followed I could feel the bewilderment welling up in their minds. With the fate of their dear girl in the balance why would I be mincing words?
Because, my friend, it is very important that you understand what chiropractic is, what it is not and why it is important to you and your kid. My reply to them is my answer to you. Everybody is blessed with a potential that most never achieve. We do not achieve that potential, not because of what we lack, but because we are blocked from expressing it.
Tiny Erica didn't suffer with ear infections as she needed holes in her eardrums. She did not suffer as she was wanting in some drug. She suffered because she was not expressing the full power and potential of life in her body. An overwhelming power had made this complete young girl from a single cell, but now something had diminished its complete and perfect expression.
When the lights in your house suddenly all turn off you go check the circuit breaker. When part of a person's body is not functioning correctly I also check the circuit breaker. In your body the circuit breaker is the backbone. In Erica's tiny spine I found three subluxations or misalignments. One was at her atlas, the top backbones in her neck. The second was in her eighth thoracic vertebrae in the lower middle of her spine. The 3rd was in her sacrum, the base of the spine. I changed Erica that day and sent them home with directions to return in a couple of days.
The next day I got a call from Erica's mummy. "What did you do to Erica?" she asked. A brief flush of panic went through me "the kind a doctor gets when a patient asks that kind of open finished question. "Why do you ask?" I inquired. "She slept throughout the night and she is like a different kid today!" she revealed, "She's more calm than I have ever seen her!"
I saw Erica at her next appointment and she used to be a different person. She climbed right up on the adjusting table without even being asked. Young children are so in tune with their inner knowledge before they become infected with fears, cynicism and distrust. They're still dancing and singing to the inner music of their own body. We each still have this if we would only take a moment to listen. Then we would know the truth of chiropractic. It's there within us now.
When the problem is removed, when the circuit breaker is re-set, then the power that made the body has a chance to heal it. Over the past eight weeks Erica's ear aches have fully vanished. Her family doctor can't believe the incredible change in her status. Now that's great health news.
So what am I pronouncing, that chiropractic is a excellent alternativefor earaches? No! A chiropractic doctor merely fixes the subluxation "the block to your inborn power to be well. Consistent correction of subluxations is imperative to manifesting the full potential of your life. Nothing else corrects the subluxation, no pill, no kind of stretching, only the chiropractic alteration.
