Imagine the freedom of learning that every effect has a cause!

We take this idea for granted, but this was not always the case. In times past many believed that poor health came as punishment from the “gods” or just plain ol’ bad luck.

We see disease and poor health from a slightly different perspective. Germs are a lot like grass seed. They have the potential to germinate and become a healthy green lawn, but only if the circumstances are just right. If you’ve ever tried to start a lawn from scratch, you know it takes effort.

While grass seed needs the proper temperature, moisture, sunlight and soil conditions, all germs need is a lowered resistance due to stress. In fact, next time you get a cold, take an inventory of the physical, chemical or emotional stresses that you experienced in the days just prior to your cold.

One of the best ways to enjoy good health is to get regular chiropractic checkups and make sure your ability to adapt to stress is at full capacity.
