CHIROPRACTIC Chiropractic is right. Adjustments restore health quickly and permanently. Going directly at the cause of the so-called diseases is the reason of Chiropractic efficiency as a drugless health agent. That is why adjustments benefit you when all "treatment methods" have failed. Ninety-five percent of diseases are due to pressure upon nerves along the sides of the Vertebral Column This pressure interferes with their functions. Hence, inflamation, unnatural action, pain and distress are manifested where these nerves end. All diseases are prolonged until pressure upon these nerves leading to the affected parts is adjusted. It is the business of the Chiropractor to release this pressure with the hand. There can be no disease without a cause. Both so-called acute and chronic disease removed by Chiropractic adjustments. It you are suffering from any ailment, it makes no difference what, call and investigate the philosophy of removing the cause. Patients with so-called incurable disease have been restored to health by spinal adjustments. Operations which delicate, nervous women are underging daily can be avoided. Having had ten years experience as a Chiropractor, you may feel assured you will have the best of care. Call, let's talk it over and get at the root of your trouble. Spinal analysis will cost you nothing. The most noted surgeon, perhaps, using the knife today says: "The drugless practitioner is one of the best things that has come into the life of the present day." Lady attendant.
