It May Surprise You But Chiropractic Can Benefit This Condition
In 1975, I attended a chiropractic seminar in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. While chiropractors were lecturing on the philosophy, science and art of chiropractic, there was also a lady there who wasn't a chiropractor but had a 20-year history of working for a chiropractor.
Rose was a chiropractic assistant. She was a small Italian woman, but she was a dynamo! She told her story and how she became involved with the chiropractic profession.
In the early 1950s, Rose gave birth to a baby boy, Johnny. It wasn't long before her son started getting recurrently sick with colds, which developed into asthma. While the day's medication kept asthma in check, it didn't fix the problem. She and her husband were so concerned about the wheezing that they took turns watching their boy at night, concerned that he might stop breathing.
Rose had a neighbour who was a chiropractic student and kept trying to get Rose to take her son to his chiropractor. Rose responded, "If the doctor thought it was a good idea, he would have suggested it". She refused to listen. Then, one day, something changed her life and her son's.
Johnny was now seven and having a terrible day, so she called her doctor, who did a home visit. In frustration, she burst out, "Why does my son have to have this curse—asthma?" She got no adequate response and, in her mind, was done with the doctor. Rose desperately called her neighbour and said, "Take me to your chiropractor ".
In the 1950s, there was no licensing for chiropractors in New York state. When she appeared at the chiropractor's office with her son, someone on the other side slid open a slot in the door, and Rose was asked for a password that she had been given. When she entered that office, seven years of misery would leave her son's life.
