Why do some people hate chiropractic.

I recently sent an e-mail to a guy who has a blog asking him a question. The attack I got was far beyond what one would expect, especially considering how nice of a letter I sent. If you have some insight about why some people hate chiropractic please comment here!

In our office in San Diego, we usually never meet with anything but friendliness from people regarding chiropractic.

Your health, nerves and your immune system.

I am a lifetime student of chiropractic and as a result continue my study of nerves. The following was explained to me from PHD in Nerve Science who went to University of California San Diego. An amazing new study came out recently that shows that your white blood cells are controlled to a great degree by your nervous system. The study which was published in Korea shows that some special nerves send messages down their length to the ends of the nerves. These special nerves connect very tightly to the endothelium of the small blood vessels called capillaries. These endothelium cells which are really the walls of the blood vessels then release a special substance on their inner linings. This substance causes the white blood cells that are traveling down the blood vessel to stick to the wall of the blood vessel at that point, and then literally climb out of the blood vessel. The theory appears to be that these white blood cells would then attack the illnesses or disease of the body. To learn more about how nerves work my cartoon book at http://bodyabcs.com tells a simpler version about how nerves work. I am working on a new cartoon book that tells the full story of the immune system and nerves and should be published at the above website during the next few months. San Diego has had beautiful weather this summer, and it is almost over, so it now time to hit the beach for a surf!!
