The aim of this book is to provide a simple theory to explain spinal manipulation for conditions usually treated by orthodox medicine such as depression, acne, lethargy, memory loss aches and pains chronic tiredness immunity deficiency to name a few examples In this case, spinal manipulation treatment is based on scientific principles which have appeared in the 1970s; and have grown to maturity over the ensuing years. I refer the 'Osteopathic Aura', the 'Ischemic Penumbra State', and 'Interictal Migraine'

Craniosacral therapy is a gentle method of bodywork that assists the natural corrective tendencies of the body. Now the founder of the therapy recounts the origins of his approach and shares stories from his practice.

This book is written as a social necessity in order to help and protect millions of persons worldwide who are suffering unnecessarily because ordinary medical practice: so called orthodox medical practice, is incompetent and incomplete. Presently, orthodox medical practice excels in trauma, complicated obstetrics, anaesthesia, public health and resuscitation; in these fields, it tries to be scientific by using controlled trials and comprehensive surveys to question the validity of its precepts. Outside these parameters, medical practitioners serve the community very badly because they generally are unaware of interictal migraine as the main disease which requires treatment. Worse, their ignorance has been contrived in Australia by an intentional failure: by a concerted fraud, to address the science underlying the recovery of vision which occurs when the spine is treated by forced-thrust, spinal manipulation. This book provides a simple introduction to the new extension of orthodox health care, which is based on the treatment of interictal migraine; it describes the 'ischemic penumbra state' when it affects the 'intercapillary watersheds' of the nervous system

Historically the medical profession has waged many much-heralded "wars," such as the war against polio, the war against cancer and the latest wars on heart disease, obesity, and tobacco. But without question the longest war fought by the American Medical Association has been against chiropractors. The America Medical Association was once dubbed "the most terrifying trade association on earth," a truth the chiropractic profession experienced when 12,000 chiropractors were arrested in the first half of the twentieth century simply for helping patients with only their hands. A pivotal point in this war, an antitrust case, Wilk v. the AMA, occurred when court testimony revealed the AMA's Final Solution for the "chiropractic menace" to be the "complete elimination of the chiropractic profession." They called chiropractors "rabid dogs," "killers," an "unscientific cult," and "a danger to public safety." When taken to task in court, the AMA could not provide one witness to prove these accusations; it was purely propaganda. They lost the case, but the war has continued unabated. This ruthless war against chiropractors revealed a dark chapter in American medicine that few people have seen, but chiropractors know well. Ironically, research now confirms there is more proof for chiropractic care than back surgery, which has been "accused of leaving more tragic human wreckage in its wake than any other operation in history." After a century assailing chiropractic as quackery, the table has finally turned with the medical profession now on the defensive, a fact the public has yet to hear but is well documented in this book with the latest scientific findings. The purpose of this book is to discuss this dark chapter in medical history - the events, tactics, and characters involved in political medicine's war against the chiropractic profession from persecution to vindication. This is the untold story of the medical war against chiropractic from persecution to vindication that could only be told by a chiropractic advocate.

Chiropractic Peace marks the beginning of the end for infighting between mixers (broad-scope) and straights (focused-scope). The three refreshing essays by Drs. Reed Phillips, Ashley Cleveland, and Gerry Clum introduce chiropractic leaders, students, faculty and practitioners to a new, less contentious, dialogue on the political, sociological, philosophical and historical issues of our profession. After years of polemical argumentation, reading Chiropractic Peace is like getting a new pair of glasses or a much-needed spinal adjustment. Uplifting relief Instead of seeking peace by trying to hammer out compromises, which many do not find successful in the end, the three writers utilize the concept of pluralism to construct a "big tent" which will accommodate all ethical chiropractors who adhere to basic chiropractic principles.
The three contributors bring a much-needed respectful tone to the discourse. And in an important turn for the profession, each writer acknowledges that all of the camps-focused-scope, middle-scope, and broad-scope-are committed to ethical and skillful practice.

Introduction to Public Health for Chiropractors is included in the 2015 edition of the essential collection of Doody's Core Titles. Doody's Book Review Score: 96 4 Stars! Public health is of concern to practicing chiropractors, as well as chiropractic students. The vast majority of chiropractors utilize public health concepts every day as an integral part of patient care. For instance, chiropractors give advice on risk factors that should be avoided and protective factors to be added by their patients to enhance healing and prevent illness. Public health is also part of the curriculum at all chiropractic colleges and is tested by the National Board. This text fills the need for a public health textbook specifically designed for the chiropractor. This book will not only be of interest to chiropractic students, but also practicing chiropractors because it will provide information they can utilize to provide better care by positively intervening with their patients and their communities regarding public health matters.

In presenting this work, it is the attempt of the author to advance the relation of subluxations to disease, also the chiropractic interpretation for the occurrence of many diseases. Appreciating the fact that only rational chiropractic can stand the light of scientific investigation, it is the constant endeavor, in all diseases herein considered, to present the adjusting point, the nerve pathway from the spine to the organ, the physiological action of the adjustment and the chiropractic prognosis. The addition of the medical prognosis is to enable the chiropractic practitioner to draw into play the element of comparison which has as its object the revelation of the efficacy of the practice of chiropractic over the practice of medicine in nearly all instances.

To me Steven J. Pollack, D.C. represents the vision and integrity, which form the foundation of Chiropractic health care. Over the past 20 years I've enjoyed the opportunity to be Steve's colleague and more importantly, his friend. Together we have endured and adapted to the dramatic changes to the "business" of health care. Despite these erratic changes "Dr. Steve" has never once lost his focus on the science, art, and philosophy of Chiropractic. One minute around him and you will know he has never been "in" Chiropractic. Chiropractic lives in him!
--Paul Basile, D.C.
