If you ever become injured or even see a x-ray from different perspectives of your spine, I can guarantee you that it will send you down a new road of discovery. What you'll find is how helpful maintaining spine health becomes in your life. Especially when the treatment is so non-intrusive.
This warrants an endorsement. Three years ago my back pain was especially severe whenever I swam any distance. I could barely stand up when I came out of the water. There were shooting pains when I got up in the morning.
I went to see the allopathic doctor and came away with a prescription for five medicines. I bought them, read the enclosed brochures, and threw them away. There had to be a better way.
Searching on Amazon I found Treat Your Own Back. It has almost 5000 reviews, overwhelmingly positive. I followed the recommendations in my back hasn't bothered me at all, swimming or sleeping, for two years.
I had a serious back injury that caused scar tissue, which created enormous pain. Mckenzie's method didn't work for me (I had a big problem and needed something more). Nor did about 10 other methods I tried. They would work in part, but not wholly and were often too time consuming. What finally worked was Essentrics by Miranda Esmonde White. (Videos available that make it easy)
So I'd encourage people to never give up if one thing doesn't work. Keep trying till you find it. I see people give up too soon. But living with nonstop pain is too costly. There is probably an answer. I'm glad you found yours!
15 years I had an accindent which deformed one of the spines, and after this then pain in my back for many hours after walking just 100 meters. 1½ year ago I found out that it could solved by "bone cemment", but the doctors reject. Bt then in March month last year I in Jeff T. Bowles "Vitamin D3 Miracle", read that much vitamin D3 could help, and then started on 10,000 IU D3 + K2, and then after just 1 week, the pain had gone. And since then daily walking 1 hour. And daily only 5.000 IU D3 + K2 since April last year. For my right arm, which I can't use, after ½ a year some of its panes had gone, and massage could again be done on it.
It was discovered on a chiropractic X-ray that I have an extra vertebrae. Not a tail vertebrae, but smack in the middle. I can't imagine how that messes the rest of me up. lol

Omg... fabulous. My dad was a duck hunter. Truth be told? He shot, and we consumed, any bird or wild animal that moved. (I picked many a pellet of buckshot out of many a pheasant, chucker, duck & quail, for instance.)
But your illustration of the boat full of surgeons, to "a shot in the dark", is also prescient.
Hi Matthew, Thanks for this post, on a subject close to my heart, as I’m sure it is with many others. You will see below why I say this. I wrote this two part article recently exploring similar themes. Included below is a précis of the article, and some feedback from readers. Feel free to share. GM
📃Article: Whistling Past the Graveyard (Part One) — The Crimes & Betrayals of the Medical Establishment, by Greg Maybury.
Preamble: Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the global conspiracy that is the Covid “pandemic”, is the ease with which the vast majority of those in the medical, healthcare, and allied scientific fields embraced the official dogma and complied with the dictates imposed under its regime.
The stark reality is that the arch-criminal globalist confederacy that is the World Economic Forum—in tandem with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the World Health Organisation—could hardly have imagined much less attempted this monstrous deception without the imprimatur and cooperation of the medical establishment. Along with ditching their solemn oath to ‘do no harm’ and betraying their ethical principles, they've become fully owned chattels of the Big Pharma crime cartel.
In this two part series, from the personal to the political and back again Greg Maybury applies the 'blowtorch to the belly' of this once revered profession. It’s not a pretty sight.

Awesome illustration. How would all of the stabbers now fit into this duck hunting scenario? The white lab coats all too ready to shove a needle in anyone’s arm?
Mathew, what do you think about homeopathy? I researched this topic extensively because I wanted to find the truth... And I am still not 100% sure if I found the truth. But after reading many or most studies about homeopathy, including placebo controlled RCT´s, meta-analyses etc. I came to a (preliminary) conclusion and I am now relatively sure that my conclusion is correct.
I have not yet studied homeopathy well enough to have a strong opinion. But obviously quinine/chloroquines came from homeopathy, and I've seen a bundle of studies (but haven't read them) that make at least a swath of homeopathic and naturopath remedies look pretty good.
Hopefully I'll get enough reading and thinking done to write up a more realistically investigated opinion one day.
Mathew, there are now several studies which show that homeopathic medicines like Arsenicum album 30C reduce the risk of a covid infection by more than 80%. So this could be great for high risk patients? Would you like to report about this? And compared to the vaccines, the effect does not seem to wane over time.
I am a fan, too, although a latecomer, compared to my love of chiropractic.
It can be very hard to get your "head around" homeopathy, as it works in a very different way than pharmaceuticals or even herbals do. The science on it is building though. A romp through history can certainly show its past successes
I know very little about homeopathy but I known the British Royal family, the Swiss.gov, and Usain Bolt use it while the most unhealthy people I know deride it as quackery so my interest is piqued
It is not working on the level of biochemistry, because the actual concentration of the "active ingredient(s)" is minute-to-nonexistant. But something is definitely going on that enhances the body's ability to heal. When I was three years old I got cured of a lifelong health condition (that the MDs couldn't help) with ONE dose of a homeopathic remedy!
Whatever it is doing, it is doing it on an energetic level just as accupuncture does, as well as some other non-standard modes of healing. True healing IS a shift in the body's energy flows. How? Who knows? Probably a frequency shift, but maybe also a change in intensity.
You know how "muscle testing" will dramatically show how different substances affect the body by weakening or strenghtening the muscles, like instantly? That must also be an example of the non-physical energy field being affected . . . there is certainly no "biological" explanation!
Qi Gung practitioners can powerfully affect the body just by channeling energy, even making cancers quickly self destruct. Many others do energy healing and get amazing results that "science" cannot explain yet, because it is mostly ignorant of the subtle energy flows of the body.
I agree. You explained this very accurately. Most meta analyses and many or most of the placebo controlled trials actually show that homeopathic medicine is more effective than placebo. So homeopathy is not only a placebo. The claim that homeopathy is a placebo comes from the same people who say early treatment for covid does not work.
It can be very effective, especially if it is individualized homeopathy.
It does not work via the "substance"... all homeopathic doctors agree that it does not work in this way. It probably works via energy, via light photons. In fact, this has already been investigated and confirmed by a researcher. Although there are also other explanations... the water memory effect could also have a role. This theory was even published in a peer reviewed journal, available via Pubmed.
See this study. It is also significantly more effective for covid than a placebo according to a new study.
"On day 10 of treatment, 75.50% of patients recovered in homeopathy in comparison to 36.91% in the control group."
"Our study found that adjunct individualized homeopathic medicine with the standard of care significantly improves clinical recovery with early resolution of symptoms compared to those who received placebo along with the standard of care. This study is the first of its kind with adjunct individualized homeopathic treatment of COVID-19."
Title: "Efficacy of individualized homeopathy as an adjunct to standard of care of COVID-19: A randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled study"
Photons are part of our three-dimensional time-space physical universe, so I seriously doubt it has anything to do with photons, plus any of them emitted from a homeopathic preparation would be so much weaker than ambient light that its signal would be completely lost, and---
I don't think that the memory effect of water is 3-D time-space either . . . I think it is right up there with the non-physical-energy effect of homeopathy.
Thanks for your explanation. The thing that disturbs me about homeopathy is that if it works, then what about all the other subtle exposures we must have from our food, water, the air, etc? If it takes so little to heal, how little then might it take of barely present chemicals to cause harm?
I don't reject homeopathy, but I don't understand how something so subtle would really be under our control then. I would love any further explanation you can give as this is a question that has confused me for a long time about homeopathy.
Shelle, I had the same question. You will understand this if you understand how homeopathic medicines are created. They do not only dilute the substance. If they would only dilute it and if it it would work in this way, then everything you say would be correct. In this case even the most diluted/smallest amounts of poisons in the environment could also affect us in a similarly profound way as homeopathic medicine.
But homeopathic medicine is created by dilution + potentiation. The process of potentiation makes the homeopathic medicine effective or much more effective. Only diluting a substance is not enough to create an effective homeopathic medicine.
Here is an explanation from the apotheke (pharmacy) naturalis from Austria:
A homeopathic remedy is prepared as follows: The basic substance is diluted 1:10 with a solvent (40 - 60 percent alcohol solution) and then shaken vigorously 100 times. The resulting preparation stage is called D1. (D stands for Latin "decem" = 10) This process is repeated many times in a row.
For example, doing this process 6 times in a row with the basic substance arnica produces 'Arnica D6', doing it 200 times produces 'Arnica D200'.
The process of succussion is also referred to as "potentiation" or "dynamization". It is an essential part of the preparation process, transferring the information contained in the base substance to the solvent. The "informative" character of the remedy becomes stronger and stronger through the successive potentiation steps, while the "material" portion becomes ever smaller.
In the 50s, Morris A. Bealle "The Drug Story" and "the House of Rockefeller" are classics when it comes the medical industry.
Fast forward a few decades to Ida Honoroff. And today we have wonderful people like Tom Cowan and an army of others just obliterating the authoritative state of Big Pharma and Big Hospital.
When I saw the "mainstream" medical community go after Martin Kulldorff because of his concern of covid vax I knew the jig was over. Kulldorff was the chief guy who "proved" the safety of vaccines for children back in 2012.
Of course, that "proof" was anything but, however he was the cat's meow in the vax/medical industry. Now he's been sent to Siberia.
I’ve dealt with chiros that were quacks (or maybe just mostly young and poorly educated) and ones that were pretty good and sincerely tried to help using both orthodox and unorthodox methods. One Chiropractor that has been a huge positive influence on my life is Dr. Berg, who has a huge following on YouTube.
It doesn't take long to find chiropracters, or people of essentially any profession, who are basically crazy. You have to choose wisely when you pick a doctor.
All chiros are not created equal. My former (recently retired) homeopath is an American who studied and practiced in Canada. He said Canadian chiro study is better than American.
I truly believe some people are gifted as healers. My wife is one (RN). Others maybe want to be, but it seems like you kind of have to fully invested it. Many really are just in it for the money.

True dat!

A chiropractor discovered my scoliosis. I was in my 30s...
Wow 😣😣
This should be interesting... :) (3rd generation DC here).
I am an occasional patient of yours. LOL Good to see you here!
Wow, small world! Email me your name!
How do I find your email address?
2nd generation here.
I was taken aback when the essay started with chiropractic.
I’m a proponent of chiropractic. Since 1976 I’ve gone to, or worked for some. I use it for when I don’t feel “right”. It’s my go to healthcare
I do too:)
Two of my favorites as a surgeon:
1. All bleeding stops.
2. Let's try this new procedure in humans and if it works we will study it in lab animals.
Omg... fabulous. My dad was a duck hunter. Truth be told? He shot, and we consumed, any bird or wild animal that moved. (I picked many a pellet of buckshot out of many a pheasant, chucker, duck & quail, for instance.)
But your illustration of the boat full of surgeons, to "a shot in the dark", is also prescient.
(Good book too. 😉)
Thanks Mathew.
Was a surgical RN for 22 years. Should have been a plumber or something else😪.
I hope my children grow up to be plumbers and direct entry midwives
Chiropractic care has been a lifesaver for me!
Duck Hunt was one of my favorite Nintendo games. :-)

Homeopathy definitely works.
I have relied on it almost exclusively for my family for a decade.
I used to be ill all the time, needing antibiotics, anti-fungals, painkillers and steroids. Now i don't touch any pharmaceuticals.
I am a fan, too, although a latecomer, compared to my love of chiropractic.
It can be very hard to get your "head around" homeopathy, as it works in a very different way than pharmaceuticals or even herbals do. The science on it is building though. A romp through history can certainly show its past successes
I know very little about homeopathy but I known the British Royal family, the Swiss.gov, and Usain Bolt use it while the most unhealthy people I know deride it as quackery so my interest is piqued
Yes, for the love of god what was your conclusion? Lol
(I'm waiting to see if his conclusions match my own)!
So . . . what's your conclusion?
What is your conclusion?
It is not working on the level of biochemistry, because the actual concentration of the "active ingredient(s)" is minute-to-nonexistant. But something is definitely going on that enhances the body's ability to heal. When I was three years old I got cured of a lifelong health condition (that the MDs couldn't help) with ONE dose of a homeopathic remedy!
Whatever it is doing, it is doing it on an energetic level just as accupuncture does, as well as some other non-standard modes of healing. True healing IS a shift in the body's energy flows. How? Who knows? Probably a frequency shift, but maybe also a change in intensity.

Great comment!
Two thoughts:
Photons are part of our three-dimensional time-space physical universe, so I seriously doubt it has anything to do with photons, plus any of them emitted from a homeopathic preparation would be so much weaker than ambient light that its signal would be completely lost, and---
I don't think that the memory effect of water is 3-D time-space either . . . I think it is right up there with the non-physical-energy effect of homeopathy.
Thanks for your explanation. The thing that disturbs me about homeopathy is that if it works, then what about all the other subtle exposures we must have from our food, water, the air, etc? If it takes so little to heal, how little then might it take of barely present chemicals to cause harm?

It's crazy how corrupt this stuff is.

Nice to know Canada got something correct
