CHIROPRACTIC What is CHIROPRACTIC? CHIROPRACTIC, the new science, is the knowledge of the cause fl disease and the art of locating and removing same by hand. The Spinal Column is the only place nerves pass between two no l ' able bony surfaces, therefore a slight displacement of one or more vertebrae causes the delicate nerves to be pinched between hard substance* i causing the nerve supply to be restricted, which caused 95 per cent o all suffering known to mankind. It matters not what part of the body « what organ is affected, the cause is in the Spinal Column. CHIROPRACTIC is the only science that removes the cause of disea e and is done without pain, drugs, massage or knife. CHIROPRACTIC ’ . justments are given with th ehands. The object has been accomplis” ! when the pressure on the nerves has been done away with or the nerves eased. CHIROPRACTIC adjustments cause. Nature cures.
