Natural Healthcare That Works! | Chiropractor in Manahawkin, NJ

Hey everybody, it’s Dr. Nicole Bonner with Healing Hands in Manahawkin. We are back and we’re talking about Chiropractic care for stress and emotional and mental illness. Now when most of you think of Chiropractic, I’m sure that most of you think of a musculoskeletal treatment for neck and back pain. I guess that’s probably what most people think about because when people get under regular Chiropractic care, the inflammation in their spine and their nervous system has a tendency to go down, resolving things like neck and back pain. But did you know that Chiropractic care has also been shown to contribute to people’s lives on an emotional level on a mental illness level as well, let me explain.

The Story of Clear View Sanitarium

Back in the 1930s, this is really fascinating, there was a a sanitarium that was opened in the 1930s for patients who had mental illness, and it was mostly extreme cases. These were the cases that were already be treating, being treated by medicine and medical doctors, medical doctors who have done everything to try to help these people. They weren’t able to help these people so these people were kind of like the people that they gave up on. They put them in this sanitarium, it was called Clear View Sanitarium. And this was a sanitarium where they, for at least for like the first 20 or so years, they only took care of these people with regular Chiropractic care. And what they what they did, what the protocol was for these people, was was very simple is every day they would get their nervous systems checked with an instrument that was able to detect nerve interference. So for those of you that are not familiar with how your how your nervous system works, it works like this.

How Your Nervous System Works

Your brain, of course, is the master organ of the body, it controls and it directs all the other organs. It controls all of the cellular function in your body, it controls the movement and strength in your arms and your legs, and your brain also controls and directs all the chemistry in your body. In order for a cell to produce a chemical, the brain has to be able to tell it to do so. The brain also has to be able to tell the cell not only to produce that chemical, but in what quantities to produce it, when to produce it and when to stop producing it. So the brain controls all of that. And the brain does that by sending electrical signals down your spinal cord through through the spine, down the spinal cord. So the electrical signals from the brain flow into the body, just like electricity would flow over and through an electrical wire. Then the electrical signals from the brain have to be able to exit the spine and get to all of the cells tissues and organs, telling them what to do, keeping them healthy, helping them to heal, helping them to regulate and function. This includes regulating and maintaining the chemistry of the body, which as we all know, is everything from how a person feels to how a person responds to their environment, their emotions, stress. It all relates to the chemistry, in fact, the medical solution, what’s the medical solution to mental illness?

How Your Brain Has Superpowers

Well, of course, it’s just more chemistry in hopes of trying to balance the internal chemistry in the body. But what we found out was that the brain is actually really good at doing that. It’s like it’s it’s it’s one of its superpowers it has really good at controlling the chemistry of the body. And so what was happening was this was every day these people were getting checked for interference in the nervous system for misalignments in the spine that was choking off the the energy flow that traveled through that part of the spinal cord into that part of the nervous system. And they were getting adjusted, the spine was getting realigned, which was relaxing the nervous system that was restoring nerve flow or nerve impulses from the brain into the body. And all of these people started to get better. In fact, the Clearview Sanitarium had an 80% success rate with their patients. So these were the patients that were like the worst of the worst. They were the ones that the MDS just said you can’t do anything more for these people. You know you have if you can help them, great, but we don’t know what else to do with them. And the act is sanitary on the Chiropractors had an 80% success rate with them that even included people who were having major seizure disorders and things like this. So, anyway, long story short, I want to be clear, Chiropractic is not a treatment for mental illness, but it is a way to restore the connection between the brain and the body so that the body can naturally start doing what it’s supposed to be doing.
