Are you one of the millions Americans who suffer from neck pain? If not, it’s very probable that you know someone who does.

A Short History of Herbs

The world of today is a world of progress, no one doubts about that. We have managed to do in 200 years of continuous industrial revolution, what we couldn’t do in thousands and thousands of tumultuous history. And yet, with all these technological breakdowns and synthetic substances, artificial food, not to mention the reign of King Plastic, some people still find the power and the wisdom to ask themselves how people in the past remained healthy and fit without nutritional supplements, drugs, even antibiotics. Their secret was that that they used what Mother Nature gave them: the plants to cure themselves. Fortunately, this knowledge hasn’t been forgotten; even if they’re not so widely used, plants have found their place in our civilization.

The story begins thousands of years ago, before the recorded history, when man didn’t know how to write or read, but knew how to follow their instincts. They discovered that certain herbs could alleviate their pains, others could make a wound disappear and others could even kill them. In the course of time, societies developed and with them appeared the means to transmit their knowledge other than orally.

A New Orleans Chiropractor's View On Changing Perceptions Of Chiropractic In The US

The art and science of the chiropractor has often been maligned by the western health establishment.  The historical animosity is mostly due to the fact that western medicine tends to employ a philosophy of reductionism, which states that the best way to understand how the human body works, how pathologies originate, and how to treat them can best be accomplished by reducing the body to its component parts.  The body is classified into organ systems, then into individual organs, which are then divided into their component tissues, and finally individual cells themselves.  Traditional western medicine seeks to localize the cause of pathology and then treat the disorder at the narrowest level of scope possible.  This reductionism is in direct contrast to the holistic approach taken by the chiropractor.  The chiropractor, much like the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, realizes that the body can not be effectively reduced into component parts.  The chiropractor views life as an emergent phenomenon that both encompasses and transcends its component parts.  In recent years, many western science practitioners have begun to appreciate the holistic approach of the chiropractor and chiropractic treatments are starting to find their rightful place in the medical mainstream.
