Harvard Medical School on Chiropractic http://www.hadleychiropractic.com/blogharvard-medical-school-on-chiropractic.html This is written with a medical slant, but it's from Harvard Medical School, so I guess that's what you'd expect. I especially like "Chiropractic is a health care system that holds that the structure of the body, particularly the spine, affects the function of every part of the body. Chiropractors try to correct the body's alignment to relieve pain and improve function and help the body heal itself." It's funny that I still get people who say they don't "believe" in chiropractic. Or that their MD or PT or Aunt Marge said bad things about chiropractic. Well, here's the latest on what Harvard Medical School says. Perhaps the non-believers should abandon their very outdated thinking. http://www.health.harvard.edu/pain/chiropractic-care-for-pain-relief en-us NYK RSS Feeder Why is it so important to measure Heart Rate Variability? http://www.hadleychiropractic.com/blog/harvard-medical-school-on-chiropractic/2015/3/18/why-is-it-so-important-to-measure-heart-rate-variability/ Wed, 18 Mar 2015 11:25:20 -0400<p>Here&rsquo;s an interesting article about the benefits of measuring Heart Rate Variability (HRV), which is just one of the tests that we use at Hadley Chiropractic to evaluate your nervous system, as well as measure the improvements you get while benefitting from care. &nbsp;It&rsquo;s called &ldquo;What&rsquo;s the Real Cause of Heart Attacks?&rdquo; <a href=\"http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/12/17/real-cause-heart-attacks.aspx\">http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2014/12/17/real-cause-heart-attacks.aspx</a></p> <p>&nbsp;I certainly invite you to read the entire article, but the bottom line is that imbalance in your autonomic nervous system <em>(the part of your nervous system that controls the function of all of your organs, glands, and blood vessels</em>) causes <strong>serious </strong>health concerns.&nbsp; This article doesn&rsquo;t discuss it, but chiropractic care has been shown to improve this balance within your autonomic nervous system.&nbsp; Here&#39;s a link for one of the studies demonstrating this benefit:&nbsp; (<a href=\"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16690380\">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16690380</a>). &nbsp;</p> Harvard Medical School on Chiropractic http://www.hadleychiropractic.com/blog/harvard-medical-school-on-chiropractic/2015/2/24/harvard-medical-school-on-chiropractic/ Tue, 24 Feb 2015 08:33:19 -0500<p>This is written with a medical slant, but it&#39;s from Harvard Medical School, so I guess that&#39;s what you&#39;d expect.
