Hippocrates

Hippocrates
Image
I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing. Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly, I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art.
Hippocrates

It is most necessary to know the nature of the spine. One or more vertebrae may or may not go out of place very much and if they do, they are likely to produce serious complications and even death, if not properly adjusted. Many diseases are related to the spine.

Science is the father of knowledge, but opinion breeds ignorance.

Get knowledge of the spine, for this is the requisite for many diseases

Your foods shall be your 'remedies,' and your 'remedies' shall be your foods.
