#33 - Carrying bricks on your head
"Hey doc, my neck’s sore and I’ve been getting these bad headaches. Think it could be my pillow?"
The father of Chiropractic, D.D. Palmer recognised 3 ‘T’s as being the major causes of nerve interference (aka Subluxation or poor spinal function): These include Trauma, Toxins and Thoughts.
The first ‘T’, Trauma is a pretty obvious cause of a physical problem, but many patients overlook the last two. TOXINS come in the form of pesticides, artificial additives in our food, cigarette smoke and the most common of all, pharmaceuticals (yes, drugs are foreign to the body and put added stress on your nervous system).
Constant THOUGHTS of fear, worry and depression can also weaken your sensitive nervous system and make it harder to heal. Ever heard people describe people and situations as "Getting on my nerves" or "A pain in the neck". They are not just metaphors. For each person, to varying degrees, these descriptions are literally true. Emotional tension causes physical tension. No wonder your neck gets so stiff when your stuck in traffic!
Many patients believe it’s only physical things like car accidents, bad pillows and the occasional ‘100lbs of bricks stacked on the head’ that can cause nerve interference, when in reality it’s the daily bombardment of hidden food toxins and stressful thoughts that commonly do a great deal of the damage.
