Not to get preachy or anything, but chiropractic is a lot more than treatment for back or musculoskeletal problems. It is a non-invasive, drugless, surgery-free system of health care that serves to regulate the nervous system.
The correction of subluxations through chiopractic adjustment techniques allows the body of the patient to naturally regulate the flow of nervous impulses to organs and tissues, and better relay and interpret the same signals coming to the central nervous system from the same organs and tissues. If a patient has health problems associated with subluxations, then the right adjustment will allow the body to correct these problems itself.
Chiropractic has amazing results with all sorts of health problems. It seems to have even more dramatic results in a place like Nepal where health care is rare. These people have excellent results for a myriad of problems, which is why I suggested the kamis may want to take advantage of the opportunity. When the clinic is open in Nepal, there are people waiting in line and coming from all over to get adjusted. They are busy from open to close, from what I have heard and seen in slide presentations. Palmer College also sends outreach clinics to India, Bequia, Dominican Republic, Fiji, Haiti, Hungary, Poland, Syria, and more. It seems to be a good program, but also an expensive one for the students who pay their own way and expenses in order to bring the chiropractic health care system to
people who otherwise would never be exposed to it. That, plus the fact that BJ Palmer, the man responsible for developing the profession, was an avid collector of khukuris and kris, as well as other knives!
