From Dr. Margolies .. 7-4-03 www.chirosmart.net Note: Happy July 4th. The Independence Day of the USA. Trouble still brews in the world and politics keeps the pot broiling. The beauty of the day is a testament to the strong will and perseverance of the founding mothers and fathers who kept the dream alive and fought to make it happen. This is not a political statement .. but I am proud to be an American. Our country has many obvious warts and social inequity. With it all our democracy is best overall. The possibility of change and improvement is always possible. Get involved .. just like our adjustments .. change takes time. One more thing .. I have not missed a day of work in over 20 years. Don't ask me how or why but last Tuesday I developed fever and flu like symptoms. I've had the flu before but nothing like this I was a walking and lying zombie. Gross temporal and frontal headaches were outrageous and off and on chills with acute neck pain.. bringing on more headaches prevented even a full hour of extended sleep. Nothing shook it .. not ice .. heat .. analgesics which I rarely take but thought what the hell. I thank Dr. David Shapario and Dr. Donald Hauger for their adjustments. I am weak today but unable to do much. Headaches are almost gone as is the chronic neck pain. I guess my body just shut down .. not gentle that is for sure. I recommend you find a DC near your office or home that will adjust you and in case of an emergency assist you as you would them. This is as far as I can go. Below the postings this week is a message sent to my patients in their e-mail newsletter. Little did I know .. I would be out the rest of the week.

Besides the obvious drinking and driving just add fireworks and overzealous activity to the mix and it can be explosive. Use this holiday as a reminder that we live in a free society where goals and aspirations can be achieved. It is never too soon to be free of destructive compulsive behavior, such as smoking, overeating, low self esteem, uncontrolled rage, overuse of prescribed medication and use of street bought mood altering drugs. It is the perfect time to be free by being in control and taking charge of your life. Never be dependent on doctors for help. They are teachers and guides through the maze and wonders of the body. Use their knowledge as a bridge toward wellness. Once in better command of your physical and emotional being release the chains and free yourself to be well. Chiropractors are so misunderstood and therefore so underused. If you came to our office in acute or chronic pain and expected miraculous results in a few visits, I am sorry for the confusion. Fortunately the majority of our patients are quite pleased with their feeling of normalcy and happy that it was not induced by medication or surgery and in such a short time. The vast majority of spinal nerves are pain free, these are the motor or functional nerves that control and coordinate body function. The main reason people usually come to chiropractors is to relieve the sensory nerve which nags and gnaws at your body with unrelenting pain. Although these nerves are in the minority they are definitely the most obvious and therefore what patients want relief of right now. We work with your body and what you brought to the office. Many of our patients have multiple areas of degeneration and misalignment that have become reactive with defensive posturing resulting in chronic spasms and trigger points. It takes time to correct or stabilize this and in so doing will reduce pressure to both the sensory and functional spinal nerves. We call this pressure a Subluxation. Therefore, work with your body and your chiropractor. Just as 1776 birthed a nation that has adapted and grown to the free society we have today, your body in 2003 can also achieve freedom with less stress, less spinal pressure and more Life .. just free the spinal pressure with proper chiropractic care.
