Dear Colleagues and Friends, Step #16 to a Hundred a Day is actually

Advanced Success Principle #6 (Use precision adjusting with high 
energy).

This is a difficult concept for new practitioners. We graduate from

Chiropractic College thinking that an adjustment doesn't compare 
to medical

surgery in value. So we think that we have to move every bone they 
have to

make the visit valuable.

    Back in 1997 I went on the first mission to Panama with Jim 
Sigafoose

and seventeen other Chiropractors. In six days the 19 of us 
adjusted over

46,000 people. The greatest lesson I learned on that trip is the 
less you

adjust, the more miracles you will see. The Chiropractors that 
adjusted only

C1 and C2 were the only ones to see miracles in six days. The 
Chiropractors

who insisted on adjusting more including extremities, saw no 
miracles. The

less you adjust, the more energy goes into each adjustment.

    I get ten times better results now, than 22 years ago, when I use 
to

adjust all 24 vertebrae if possible. I now adjust C1 and C2 only for 
10 to

50 visits. Once they are holding well, I then graduate to another 
area if

necessary.

    For those of you that concentrate on Basic Neuroanatomy, this 
will drive

you crazy. This reminds me of a patient named Doris. She had been 
to five

different doctors for her severely numb feet that she had for five 
years.

Her feet were so numb that she could not feel socks or shoes on her 
feet.

Every time I adjusted her C1 and C2 , she would get up off the table 
and

look at me and say "Dr. Wren it is my feet, not my neck". All other 
five

doctors were treating her numb feet with shots and pills and some

Chiropractors would be adjusting her feet. I would look at her and 
say

"Doris we have to get more electricity to your feet for your feet to 
get

better". She would look at me with confused eyes and walk out. She 
would say

the same thing every visit. Thankfully, on about her 6th visit she 
came in

with a huge smile and said " I can feel my socks on my feet for the 
first

time in 5 years". Then I said "Doris, I never touched your feet".

    Some of you will never be able to back off your 24 bone 
adjustments. For

those of you that want to have more fun and get better results, 
adjust less.
