Re: FEAR MONGERING IS HUMAN NATURE, FOR SOME FOLKS JUST ...

"So I went to a "Hole In One" type of guy...that is when they believe, as did the originator of chiropractic, Dr. Palmer, that the only adjustment needed is the upper cervical, and most particularly the atlas, feeling that when THAT is aligned properly, the whole spine will fall in line."
Actually, the originator of chiropractic was D.D. Palmer and he adjusted the full spine and extremities. His son, B.J. Palmer is the one who eventually developed HIO, and claimed that the atlas is the only vertebra that subluxates. When B.J. Palmer made this announcement he asked all chiropractors to only practice HIO, but many refused because they were getting great results adjusting the full spine. Many say that this is the point where chiropractic started to divide and resulted in the many techniques and associations that we have today. Tweet
