Never before in my young life have I witnessed such a world-wide panic, with the flurry of fear throughout the media and medical profession. If you have a parakeet or canary singing at home, it would be best to muzzle them now before the bird police and your neighbors come nervously towards your home with pitchforks. What we are observing is simple overexposure. What we can learn from this is how it is taken root and use some of this energy for our own cause. There continues to be controversy within our profession concerning the word subluxation. Many amongst us savor the word and use it as an explanatory tool of why and what we do. It is a prelude to the discussion of Life and Health with chiropractic care. Others consider it an aberrant manifestation of the spinal joint relegating it to instability and malfunction with reduced performance. Regardless how you perceive the subluxation, it is an epidemic, in fact a pandemic already. If you feel strongly that this plague on society either taxes the immune system by reducing its potential or aggravates stability and performance, you should do something. Every spine has the potential of being subluxated and every worldwide person has a spine. Every profession places by nature physical stress on the human frame with the potential of wear and tear. Every moment of emotional and physical tension grips tightly the paraspinal support system robbing it of balance reducing it to defense. Every fall, every accident, every waking moment taxes the human frame, of which the spine is paramount towards maintaining health and wellness. Is this not a crisis and often a manageable, well how come there are no screaming and demanding pitchfork waving people insisting that it be so. We have a problem of exposure, forget about overexposure. We need a bird flu media exposure to awaken your neighbor to the unfashionable word subluxation. We need a few media moguls to investigate the global need for its eradication or management. We need a unified voice to capture the hearts of the public resulting in telethons and fund raising. We need an insurance industry that gets off our proverbial backs and sees the cost effectiveness of preventive healthcare with chiropractic and subluxation care leading the way. We need all chiropractors and staff to be cognizant of this reality and leave no person behind either with the knowledge they deserve or the care they need. For us, simply put .. we need a Bird Flu pandemic mentality to lead the way. How does the subluxation register with you? Your answer will direct your course and how aggressive you will be to get the message out.
