Why would anybody go to this doctor when he openly admits that he has never healed anyone?

  Crazy huh?

Over the last 26 years, thousands of people have gone to see this doctor for everything from headaches, asthma, A.D.D., diabetes, GURD, back pain even infertility. And to this day he still maintains that he has never cured or healed anyone.

You see, this doctor firmly believes that no doctor has ever healed anyone. So often doctors try to play God thinking that they can actually heal people but that is just not true. 

The truth is that your body is a self healing organism. It needs no help whatsoever to heal. It just needs no interference. Your Body has an innate intelligence inside of it that regulates and controls all of its functions. The Bible says that God breathed life into man and I believe that it is this life or innate that keeps you and I alive. 

Now imagine for  just a minute that your brain is controlling all of your bodily functions sending messages down your spinal cord and out to all the tissues in your body. Regulating everything that your body does, and everything is functioning at 100%. You are as healthy as you can possibly be.

What if something was to interfere with your brains ability to control the organs in your body. Lets just say for instance your heart. DO you think you would be healthier or sicker? Sicker, every time.

Every day we have trauma in our life. Sometimes this trauma is so severe of goes on for so long that it can actually cause the bones in your spine that are protecting your nervous system, to be moved out of place. If this Vertebrae is out of place, it can put pressure on spinal nerves.

That's right, a spinal bone out of lace can put pressure on your nervous system and cause a decrease in function of your body. 

Now, if that bone is protecting the nerve that goes to your heart, and you put pressure on the nerve that goes to your heart, are you going to be sicker or healthier? What if the nerve goes to your stomach? Did you ever think about the fact that the same nerve that goes to your low back and frequently causes low back pain also controls your ovaries, uterus, Male organs?

What if someone was trained in detecting and correcting these misaligned vertebrae (subluxations)? Can  you see that as the pressure is removed from the nerve that not only could the low back pain go away but even the erectile dysfunction or infertility or abnormal menstrual cramping, irregular menstrual cycles?

At Barton Chiropractic, that is just what we do! We detect and correct subluxations allowing your body to function at 100% so that it can heal itself. This is done through a series of gentle Chiropractic adjustments.

If you have a spine, you more than likely have Subluxations (spinal bones that are in the wrong place), decreasing your bodies ability to function at 100%. This may or may not be causing symptoms. We have found that symptoms are often not present until the problem has gotten really bad. A person that has just had a heart attack did not just suddenly develop heart problems. The heart was bad way before the symptoms arose.

Since there are NO Absolutely Safe Drugs, Who is Really Responsible for Your Health?

         Barton Chiropractic in Concord is constantly reviewing the latest healthcare research so that     we can provide you with the best possible health care. You should share it!   If you answer, "I am," then I'm glad—you're getting it.

You are the only one who can be fully responsible for your health. You can choose to believe that this responsibility rests on someone else's shoulders, but at the end of the day, you are the one who has to live with the consequences, for better or worse. 

Unfortunately, a majority of people have been successfully brainwashed into thinking that FDA-approved drugs are both safe and effective. This is a tragedy of epic proportions because nothing could be further from the truth.

It's important to understand that even if a drug has gone through unbiased, stringent, long-term testing—which most do NOT undergo prior to approval—you may still experience harmful effects. The drug may interact badly with another drug you're taking or with a food you're eating. Your genetic makeup, metabolism, or the state of your immune system can also cause it to have an unpredictable impact. All Drugs Have Side Effects!

Sadly, studies are frequently biased, results are skewed, and drugs are put on a fast-track to be approved long before anyone knows whether they're safe. In essence, taking a drug is a gamble, and there are NO 100 percent safe drugs—not even over-the-counter versions.

Unfortunately, doctors are not likely to change their prescription habits any time soon because that's what they're trained to do. In many cases, writing prescriptions is ALL they do! So as a patient, you have to take it upon yourself to question the drugs prescribed to you.

Some of the most common-sense questions you need to ask before you take any drug include:

• Do I really need it? I mean really need it.
• Is it prescribed appropriately, or is it being prescribed for an off-label use?
• What are the side effects? (Both common and uncommon side effects)
• Is it addictive?
• Is it known to interact with any other drugs, supplements, or foods that I'm taking?

Subluxation  

If you have a vertebra that is out of place, it can put pressure on a nerve and cause it to not    function 100%. If the nerve supply to the organ is not 100% how can the organ function 100%?

The Doctors as Barton Chiropractic in Concord offer free consultations to determine if patients may have vertebral subluxations. 

Chiropractors remove nervous system interference allowing your body to regulate it self and heal itself naturally, without drugs or surgery.

It makes total sense to me, that if you do not want more drugs and surgery, you need Barton Chiropractic!

More Drugs For Women

          Barton Chiropractic in Concord is constantly reviewing the latest healthcare research so that     we can provide you with the best possible health care. Recently I ran across this article so I thought I would share it.

While it's important to pay greater attention to the differing healthcare needs between men and women, this is probably not the primary incentive behind the huge increase in drugs being developed specifically for women.

Prescription statistics show that American women use nearly 65 percent more drugs, on average, than men—making them a more lucrative market for the drug companies... According to the featured report, drug- and biotech companies are currently testing or awaiting FDA approval for more than 850 different drugs for diseases that "disproportionately affect American women."

Really? Do you really want more drugs? The whole idea of covering up the symptoms so that you can die more comfortably seems really crazy to me. Don't you just want to feel better? 

One of the greatest things about Barton Chiropractic in Concord is we allow your body to heal from the inside out. What? 

Think about this: Your body loses about 2.5 million cells every single min. All that dust around the house, ya that is mostly dead skin. Your entire body is replaced once a year through cellular regeneration. Your brain controls all of this. Every single movement of your body, every organ function, every sensation, yep your brain and nervous system control it! 

Now what if we took the nerve that goes from your brain to one of your organs and put enough pressure on that nerve so that it did not function 100%. What do you think would happen to that organ? DO you think it would function 100%? Nope!

If you have a vertebra that is out of place, it can put pressure on a nerve and cause it to not    function 100%. If the nerve supply to the organ is not 100% how can the organ function 100%?

Fevers and Chiropractor in Concord

Taylor N. Barton

Fevers can originate for any number of reasons such as a virus or infection; certain inflammatory conditions; heat exhaustion; malignant tumors; medications; some immunizations, such as the diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis (DTaP) or pneumococcal vaccines (in infants and children); and many, many more. Your body’s temperature is an average 98.3 that varies by a few degrees depending on different body styles, time of day and activities. Your hypothalamus works as a thermostat for your whole body. Your temperature is the balance of the heat produced by your body tissues, particularly your liver and muscles, and the heat your body loses. When you're ill, your normal temperature may be set a few points higher as your body directs blood away from your skin to decrease heat loss.

When a fever starts and your body tries to elevate its temperature, you feel chilly and may shiver to generate heat until the blood around your hypothalamus reaches the new set point. When your temperature begins to return to normal, you may sweat profusely to get rid of the excess heat.


Depending on what's causing your fever, additional fever symptoms may include:
 Sweating
 Shivering
 Headache
 Muscle aches
 Loss of appetite
 Dehydration
 General weakness
High fevers between 103 F (39.4 C) and 106 F (41.1 C) may cause:
 Hallucinations
 Confusion
 Irritability
 Convulsions

As a general rule of thumb, fevers are usually a good thing because it is your bodies way of responding to something; however, if your temperature exceeds 103 it is considered dangerous. Strange febrile conditions can occure and have no sure cause or treatment.

This is the study of a three year old female with recurring fever of unknown origin once or twice per month. The girl had suffered from repeated sinus and upper respiratory infections during her first year of life and had been given aspirin and other medications to lower the fever. The child began chiropractic care and during the next eight months she had only two additional fever episodes. (Adjusting the febrile pediatric patient. Peet, JB Chiropractic Pediatrics, 1996; Vol 2 No.3: 11-12)

Gangrene and Chiropractor in Concord

by: Taylor N. Barton

    Barton Chiropractic in Concord is constantly reviewing the latest healthcare research so that     we can provide you with the best possible health care. Recently I ran across this article so I thought I would share it.

Life is in the blood, right? Blood feeds all your skin, muscles, organs, everything, with the nutrients, antibodies, and oxygen necessary to function. Do you know what happens when that life giving blood is restricted and cannot flow to all regions of the body? This interruption of blood flow results in cell decay and eventually death; this is called gangrene. Gangrene can be caused by a trauma that physically impedes blood flow, or a bacterial infection. Underlying conditions such as diabetes or atherosclerosis can also impede blood flow which may in some cases lead to gangrene. Gangrene most commonly affects the extremities, including your toes, fingers and limbs, but it can also occur in your muscles and internal organs.

When gangrene affects your skin, signs and symptoms may include:
■A blue or black discoloration of your skin
■Severe pain followed by a feeling of numbness
■A foul-smelling discharge leaking from a sore

Treatments for gangrene include surgery to remove dead tissue, antibiotics and other approaches. If you’re like me, then this sounds extremely intrusive and debilitating.

Did you know Chiropractic can help patients with gangrene?

A 40 year old woman whose circulation decreased dramatically on her right side. Her foot began to swell and turn blue and she was told that nothing could be done to save the foot from amputation. Patient refused. She asked her relatives to bring her to the chiropractor. Under care, the circulation returned to her foot. The gangrenous toes dropped off but the foot “entirely healed.” Patient reported to be in continued good health 20 years later. [From the records of the Bebout College of Chiropractic, Indianapolis, Indiana (April 1927)]

Headaches/ Migraines and Chiropractor in Concord

Severe headaches and migraines can affect people from early childhood to adulthood and on to late adulthood. Symptoms include (but are not limited to):
•sensitivity to light and sound
•pulsating or throbbing head pain which may affect one or both sides of the head
•pain that worsens with physical activity
•pain that interferes with daily activities
•nausea with or without vomiting
Without treatment these migraines can last up to 72 hours, severely impacting your quality of life.

Case studies have shown that chiropractic can treat headaches and migraines. Just listen to all these amazing, and true testimonials:

This was a six month study of 127 migraine sufferers half of whom had diversified chiropractic adjustments. The other half was the control group. Subjects in the manipulation group demonstrated statistically significant improvement in migraine frequency, headache duration, disability and medication use. 22% of those undergoing chiropractic care reported more than 90% reduction in migraines after two months. About 50% reported significant improvement in severity of migraine episodes. (Tuchin PJ, Pollard H, Bonello R. Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics Feb. 2000:23(2), PP.91-5. )

A ten year-old girl with chronic, severe migraine (6 times a week for the past 3 years) was unable to go to school due to the severity of her condition. She was treated at a Children’s Hospital by a neurologist. Chiropractic examination revealed VSC at C1/C2. The patient’s headaches improved following her 3rd adjustment (one week) at which time she stopped using Periactin™ Syrup (prescribed by her pediatrician). By the third week she was back in school and started dance classes for the first time in 2 years, “and actually began to smile again.” She was leading a normal and healthy life for a child her age by the end of the 5th visit. (Bofshever, H. International Chiropractic Pediatric Newsletter Jan/Feb 2000 )

332 patients received an average of 8.6 chiropractic adjustments. 80% of patients had excellent (pain-free) and good (almost pain-free) outcomes with 10 reporting a 75% decrease in pain. (Droz JM, Crot F. Swiss Annals Vlll, 1985; 127-36.)
