Dr. B. J. Palmer 9/14/1882 - 5/27/1961 * Founder of Palmer Chiropractic Medicine

HISTORY of CHIROPRACTICDr. B. J. Palmer. Developer of Chiropractic. B.J. was the son of Chiropractic’s Founder, D.D. Palmer. And like both his father and A.T. Still, he was a brilliant scientist, clinician, and philosopher, who was truly ahead of his time. Whereas Dr. Still believed that FASCIAL ADHESIONS were the root of most diseases, B.J. believed (and to at least a degree, proved) that a very common cause of disease is NERVE INTERFERENCE due to VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION. In fact, B.J. was so adamant about this premise of his philosophy that he coined the saying, “One cause, one cure“. As far as BJ was concerned, Subluxation was the cause of all sickness and disease, and Chiropractic Adjustments were the solution. And while he may not have been totally correct, science is today proving him to be more right than most people realize.Vertebral Subluxations occur when individual vertebrate are either misaligned or not moving properly in relationship to each other. Among other problems created by the Subluxation Complex, they irritate nerve function, and interfere with the loop of nerve impulses from the brain to the body and back again via the spinal nerves (kind of like static distorting the music on an old AM radio). Although much greater technical details are known about the Vertebral Subluxation Complex today, much of what BJ discovered and taught was spot on. As you can imagine, subtly blocking nerve impulse can cause a whole host of health problems, including to, but not limited to pain.In order to promote chiropractic in the medically hostile environment of the early 1900’s, BJ was not only a scientist of the highest order, he became an expert at marketing. During his tenure, Palmer College of Chiropractic actually owned a couple of radio and T.V. stations —- one being the very station where one of America’s greatest presidents, Ronald Regan, got his start in the show business industry as a radio announcer.

Some questions we often get asked

FAQs
What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other alternative treatments. The theory is that proper alignment of the body's musculoskeletal structure, particularly the spine, will enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication. Manipulation is used to restore mobility to joints restricted by tissue injury caused by a traumatic event, such as falling, or repetitive stress, such as sitting without proper back support. Chiropractic treatment is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. It is sometimes used in conjunction with conventional medical treatment. The initials "DC" identify a chiropractor, whose education typically includes an undergraduate degree plus four years of chiropractic college. i

How long does it take to get better?
This is a very open question and answers depend on various factors from the lenght of time since your initial injury, what other types of medical treatments you had, location of the injury, seriousness of your condition, amount of therapies you had and so on. During your initial consult, ur doctors will examine you and determine what you can expect. Every patient is different. Most patients will need X-Rays images and reports before a chiropractic adjustment can be performed.
