UA family doctor tells his patient: “There are three stages of pain. In the first stage, the pain is bad enough to demand your attention. In the second stage, it takes over you, and in the third stage it finally forces you to do something about it.”
The patient asks his doctor, “When you get to stage three, what should you do?” Without blinking, the doctor turns to him and says, “Take an ibuprofen.” (A sad, true story.)
Worst of all, the patient actually thought it was good advice. When you tell the story to your chiropractor, the patient replied: “If the smoke detector went off in your house, the first time you would probably be alarmed; the second time you would probably be alarmed. But if it went off a third time and you finally had to do something about it, would you take the batteries out so you wouldn’t have to keep hearing it?” “Of course not,” the patient replied, “that would be stupid.” The patient understood the point.
What is the moral of the story?… The symptoms are an attempt by our body to save itself. Masking the symptoms (whether it be pain, nausea, diarrhea, or fever) with medication does not fix the problem; in fact, it can make the situation worse.
It's smarter to go to the CAUSE of the problem and deal with it the RIGHT way. That's why they call DC chiropractors,
Because they are Doctors who seek the Causes!
