Empowering the Chiropractic Treatment
- Dr. Steve Cox
Most of our nervous systems have themselves been influenced by forces and information that they were unable to process efficiently; this has led to dysfunction. Many people experience this dysfunction as tension in their body/mind relationship or other dysfunctions such as problems with digestion, hormone imbalances, and even circulatory problems. Without our nervous systems processing force and information efficiently, these excesses and deficiencies occur among organs and tissues of the body.

These imbalances alter vital capacity and affect the ability to express our ideal self. Join us to learn profound ways to clear your nervous system so that you reach your potential as a Chiropractor and be able to read and treat your patients with more awareness.

In fact, this molecule is so important it was named “Molecule of the Year” by Science Magazine in 1992 and in 1998 a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to the three US Scientists responsible for its discovery.
