This is why we do what we do!19 Nov

Last week Dr. M went to a weekend conference in New Jersey.  These are always exciting experiences for us.  Not only do we get to learn about new technology, new techniques, etc, but we also get the chance to spend time with other chiropractors from around the country (and world), some who are old friends, some whom we’ve just met, who have the same outlook on health and wellness that we do, and who are working in their communities to bring about a more positive, more effective message of health and wellness.  Some of you have met some a couple of these great doctors, Dr. Martha Nessler (who ran our Ladies Night for us) and, just last month, Dr. Cole Blume. 

At this last conference there was a break from normal arrangement of speakers, typically doctors, health and wellness experts, motivational gurus, researchers, etc.  In the midst of all the science, technology, health and wellness came out a gentleman who had never even been in a chiropractic office.  He was visibly nervous, he wasn’t a professional speaker.  Yet for the next hour he held the audience captive as he told the tragic story of his son, Wyatt.

Wyatt’s story sums up the reason that we come to the office everyday.  Every day thousands of kids and millions of adults are prescribed medications that are unnecessary.  In Wyatt’s case, the use of an antibiotic goes against the American Academy of Pediatric’s recommendation for ear infections.  (In fact, the chiropractic adjustment is a better, safer alternative to antibiotics! (Journal of Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics 1997 (Oct);   2 (2):   167–183).)  It is the nature of drugs that we don’t know when a reaction like Wyatt’s will occur.  The FDA, the CDC, and the drug companies themselves give us stats as to the safety of medications.  Why they don’t say is that, due to the bottom line and the almight dollar, they are willing to live with 1%, 5%, even 10% adverse reaction rates.  They call these drugs safe.

Unfortunately knowing that amoxicillin is “safe” is no comfort to Wyatt’s family.  When, as a society, we condone and prescribe millions upon millions of drugs every year, the shear numbers, even with only a 1% “bad” reaction rate, ensure that we have thousands of cases like Wyatt’s every year.  We don’t hear about them, they’re not published in the media or in the official stats.  Reactions to prescription drugs (not overdoses or accidents) are the 3rd leading cause of death in this country.  The only things that kills more people are heart attacks and cancer.  Yet we have no pink ribbons, or weekend walks, or yellow bracelets for it.  In the eyes of the medical/pharmaceutical industries it is simply the cost of doing business. 

I don’t want to live in a world that doesn’t have medications.  Yet I never want to have to take a medication and I never want any of my patients to have to take them either.  This is why we do what we do!  It is life or death!  Please, the next time you think about popping a little pill for a head ache, or a back pain, or a runny nose…..think about the consequences.  It is vitally important.  If you are on a medication, don’t stop.  Come talk to us about how we can work with your doctor to put together a plan for you to safely stop.

Uncertainty and Fear at the Airport!01 Nov

I was coming home from California on Sunday, after a nice week off with my beautiful, expecting wife and son, Nico.  While waiting for our flight I couldn’t help but notice the handful of people in line to get their free flu shot.  First off, many of you have heard Dr. A and I speak before on the dangers of this well known toxic concoction, and for those of you who haven’t, well, you may want to come to our Nov. 10th discussion at our office on this topic.  I just don’t have the time or space on this sheet to get into all the detail here, but I will point out a few major issues our country is having with fear based defense strategies.

As silly as it is to hear at O’Hare, “security level Orange,” it is even more silly to assume that everyone is born defenseless against the flu.  You see, nobody can actually influence the true strength of your immunity except you.  Only you can decide what nutrients you will put in your body on a regular basis for your body to break down an use as energy for the next battle that comes your way.  Only you can decide to move your body to charge your metabolism or to sit in a lazy boy and veg out 4 hours a day into total catharsis.  Only you can decide to have natural, regular chiropractic care for your family to have an improved nervous system function, or to rely soley on symptom suppressants such a Tylenol, Zyrtec, Aderol, inhalers for asthma, NyQill, Well-butrin, Prozac, and think you are healthy because you feel fine.  So you see, there are different types of immune systems.  Those that are practiced and ready for battle, and those that are kind of ready, and those that absolutely are waiting to be pummeled by the next opponent.

We live in a culture with a lot of immune systems that suck, and so because it takes work to fix it, we rely on faulty chemistry, like the flu shot to get our quick, cheap fix (kind of like a McDonald’s drive through), and sadly believe this will be the answer to keep us feeling fine while we continue to live a mediocre or terrible lifestyle.  Even the CDC’s own statistics tell the truth about the ineffectiveness of the flu shot, yet they continue to recommend it, with little to no long term study on the known side effects of the neurotoxins contained within the vaccine.  Countries like Australia pulled the H1N1 last year because of the significant number of seizures it caused in children.  Um, yes, that was documented in the U.S. too, but I guess it was at “OK” levels here to keep recommending it to pregnant moms, kids, and our elderly first.  By the way, why is it ok to get a flu shot, but you can’t eat sushi if you are pregnant, when there is 10 times more neurotoxins, like Mercury, in the flu shot as compared to sushi?

It all comes down to fear.  People are actually afraid of something they shouldn’t be.  Our bodies have been fighting the flu for centuries with great success naturally, but we have been sold a bad, fear based bill of health that basically teach us and sadly our kids, that we are born flawed, and we need special chemicals put in ALL of us, or we will get really sick and maybe DIE.  My mission is not to battle this fear but to promote truth and empowerment.  For anyone that knows me, my family and I will not get this shot, so do any of you feel scared or sorry for my family because of my ignorance?  Of course you don’t, because you know, as well as I do, that our own, natural immunity, and what we choose to do naturally on a regular basis to boost it, holds a lot more weight than any concoction they can inject into your bloodstream. At the end of the “Flu season,” come and have a conversation with me if you don’t understand or agree with this, or better yet, register for our Nov. 10th class on the science behind the myth of the flu shot with Dr. A and I.  If you do agree, register your neighbor and come with them.  The only way we can share this sense of true freedom is to open our mouths.  People are sick and tired of being sick and tired.  Lets help our community together!

Much Respect….,

Dr. M

DR. M gets an MRI?08 Oct

Just this past Tuesday, I had an MRI to assess the ligament and cartilage of my left knee. I had no significant pain, just simply less flexibility and a tad bit of stiffness in the morning in area of my knee about the size of a quarter. I had also noticed that over the last 6 months that playing basketball made my knee swell a bit for a day or two. That being said, I had worked vigorously to keep my lifestyle and habits in the best condition to allow optimal healing, such as more frequent adjustments with Dr. Arthur, anti-inflammatory diet (basically limited breads and pasta and adding a ton of fruits and vegetables), increased yoga and other flexibility training. While I had helped my initial problem significantly, I still thought I should be better, so I decided to refer myself for an MRI to be sure there wasn’t something more significant that I was missing. Well, sure enough, I had a major tear in the meniscus of my left knee. The exam also showed that my body was already going through degerative changes in my femur ( a leg bone) that would have gotten much worse had I not decided to pursue my injury. I will eventually have a very minor (in and out) repair of the menisci (small cartilage cushion) in the next month or two, and I’ll be back on the basketball court in no time.

Why DO I TELL you MY Story?

1) Just like the spine and nerve system, other parts of your body will break down and cause degenerative changes before pain ever develops. If you are reading this, you may want to ask yourself, why you haven’t made your spouse and kids come in to get checked for subluxations and nerve pressure? If you are waiting for pain, it’ll most likely be after the problem had been present for years! Remember my example with my knee. I had almost no pain, just a little loss of range of motion. If I hadn’t decided to get checked proactively, I may have damaged my knee to the point I would have maybe given up my 1st love (BASKETBALL).

2) Many of you know how natural and organic I live my life, but I thought it would be helpful to let you know that I too get injured, sick, and make mistakes, and yes, I do consult traditional doctors from time to time. There is a need for both. You get to decide in what balance you will use the advice from different points of view. Know this though, I will continue to live my life to its fullest, and allow optimal healing from my upcoming surgery of the knee, and not just depend on the surgery itself. The surgery will put the cushion back together in my knee, but my body will be what actually heals the tissue. The surgery is simply an intervention used to allow the body to continue to self heal. To make a point more clear, I usually state that if they repaired the torn meniscus of a dead person, I can assure you the tissue won’t heal. Your body has a vital force running through it at all times, and that force is what heals. That is also the only reason we come to work every day; our job is to remove the interference to the nervous system through chiropractic adjustments, so your body can adapt better that when you walked in our door.

Much Respect,
Dr. M

Flu Shots are for Wimps!20 Sep

It’s that time of year again – Flu shot season.  Unlike last year, big pharma and the media are not shouting from the rooftops that a pandemic is occurring… they don’t have to.  Last year’s scare served it’s purpose, it softened the rules and increased the delivery system for flu vaccines.  Now you don’t have to visit a doctor (who should be trained to determine whether or not a flu shot is appropriate for you) to get your flu shot, it is everywhere.  You can’t walk down the street without seeing marquees saying “Flu shots are here!”, you can’t walk into Walgreens or Dominicks without being herded into the pharmacy to get your stick.  You can even buy Flu shot gift cards!!!

What you don’t hear from big pharma or the media is that while these are great marketing strategies that make a ton of money for those involved – they don’t actually stop you from getting sick or getting the flu.  And this isn’t me talking, and this isn’t new, breaking research, we’ve known this for a while.  Take a look at some different groups and try to see who it helps:

  • Not babies: In a review of more than 51 studies involving more than 294,000 children it was found there was “no evidence that injecting children 6-24 months of age with a flu shotwas any more effective than placebo. In children over 2 yrs, it was only effective 33% of the time in preventing the flu. Reference: ”Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy children.” The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. 2 (2008).
  • Not children: A study 800 children with asthma, where one half were vaccinated and the other half did not receive the influenza vaccine. The two groups were compared with respect to clinic visits, emergency department (ED) visits, and hospitalizations for asthma. CONCLUSION: This study failed to provide evidence that the influenza vaccine prevents pediatric asthma exacerbations.  Reference: “Effectiveness of influenza vaccine for the prevention of asthma exacerbations.” Christly, C. et al. Arch Dis Child. 2004 Aug;89(8):734-5.
  • Not children again:   “The inactivated flu vaccine, Flumist, does not prevent influenza-related hospitalizations in children, especially the ones with asthma…In fact, children who get the flu vaccine are more at risk for hospitalization than children who do not get the vaccine.“ Reference: The American Thoracic Society’s 105th International Conference, May 15-20, 2009, San Diego.
  • Not adults:   In a review of 48 reports including more than 66,000 adults, “Vaccination of healthy adults only reduced risk of influenza by 6% and reduced the number of missed work days by less than one day (0.16) days. It did not change the number of people needing to go to hospital or take time off work.“ Reference: ”Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy adults.” The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. 1 (2006).
  • Not the Elderly:   In a review of 64 studies in 98 flu seasons, For elderly living in nursing homes, flu shots were non-significant for preventing the flu. For elderly living in the community, vaccines were not (significantly) effective against influenza, ILI or pneumonia.  Reference: ”Vaccines for preventing influenza in the elderly.” The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.3 (2006).

The crazy thing is that there are safer, more effective ways to prevent the flu.  For example, a recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that Vitamin D supplements are more effective than vaccines for preventing the flu in children.  Yet we continue to push unproven, possibly unsafe vaccines for kids!

Don’t be a wimp.  You’re body has the tools and ability to fight the flu – you just have to train it to be strong.  Vitamin D is one way, there are others.  We are the personal trainer for your immune system.  Talk to us today about what you can do to make you and your family strong!

We’re Back!13 Sep

Wow, what a crazy past couple of weeks it has been!  Some of our regular readers may have noticed we haven’t updated the blog or sent out a newsletter the past couple of weeks.  For that we are sorry.  It has been just been so crazy the last couple of weeks that I haven’t had the time to put my thoughts to paper.  That’s a good thing though.  In fact those of you who have been in the office may have noticed the exciting things happening here at McKinley Chiro.  Here are a few of those things.

  1. Our new electronic records system:  We’ve been talking about it for months but we are finally live!  This system will allow us to provide better care and to make your experience at McKinley Chiro even better!
  2. The huge amounts of people that are taking their health into their own hands! August saw more people than ever walk through our door, and that means more people in our community taking the necessary steps towards wellness.  We couldn’t do it without all of you helping us to spread our message to Chicago!
  3. Chiropractic SuperConference! We are very fortunate to belong to a select group of the top chiropractic and wellness clinics from across the nation.  Our national conference is next week in Orlando.  Dr. A and Sarah will be their starting Wednesday and Dr. M will join us on Friday (the office will be closed that day).  This is our opportunity to bring back to you the latest and best in chiropractic and wellness techniques to better serve you!

Thank you everyone for your patience in this exciting time at McKinley Chiropractic.  We appreciate the support and patronage you have given us and are truly blessed to be living and experiencing the chiropractic wellness lifestyle!

I don’t want to leave you without some great health info so I want to share with you a note I received from one of our mentors, Dr. Dennis Perman.  If this doesn’t illustrate the need to discuss health and wellness with your friends and family, nothing will.  Enjoy!

Dear Doctor

The American Thoracic Society studied 323,000 thirteen and fourteen year olds in fifty countries, concluding that those using Tylenol once a month for a year were more than twice as likely to suffer from asthma, with a 43% increase in those taking it even once in the prior year.

What? Taking this over-the-counter medicine once in the last year caused a 43% increase in the likelihood of suffering from asthma? In a huge study of 323,000 kids worldwide? Are you serious? How could any parents give this drug to their children in good faith, when 43% of the time it increases the chance of asthma? Am I missing something here?

Bizarrely, the researchers said that acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol, is still recommended for these kids, since ibuprofen products have already been shown to increase asthma, and aspirin is also contraindicated, which leaves Tylenol, in spite of these startling findings.

It is clear that such misguided pseudo-science is harmful, and we are only now starting to discover how harmful. The hypnosis is so deep that the option of not using a medication is distant on the horizon, except for the radical fringe. It would be bad business, not to mention hard to sell at this point, to just avoid giving children medicines of any kind except when absolutely necessary. In fact, the incidence of child-drugging does vary greatly between international cultures, with only 2% of teens in Taiwan taking Tylenol regularly, 23% in Canada, 42% in the U.S. and 68% in Nigeria.

It should be obvious that the bigger problem is not Tylenol or any drug in and of itself, but rather the pandemic compulsion for and dependency on drugs. Sadly, this ultimately cannot work, as the chemistry of the body is far too complex and interconnected to forgive such inexact reductionist tampering. Everything affects everything, different in different people, and without a philosophy of health, where proactive wellness habits are developed so we can properly evaluate who really needs medications and who does not, we’ll just continue on down this slippery slope toward self-annihilation.

Sorry if I seem negative and melodramatic, but this travesty has reached crisis proportions. Unless we find a way to change direction, eventually such outside-in reasoning will take over every aspect of our lives, to make us thinner, calmer, smarter, stronger, more energized, and help us in bed. The lure is great, but the real answer is to inspire better lifestyle choices, and to find ecological, organic means to address our challenges whenever possible. Anything less is little more than slow suicide.

We chiropractors have our work cut out for us, and it will be no easy task, but the alternative is much worse. Consider your position on this vital issue, and decide to make a bold stand to support this cause. Tell those in your sphere of influence the truth about things natural, and persist until they listen and respond. Someone’s teenager is counting on you to do so.

Informed Consent25 Aug

Recently, a member of our practice had an appointment with their MD, and mentioned how they were pleased with our office, but wanted to get their MD’s opinion on Chiropractic care in general.  While the doctor did seem to be approving, he also mentioned that there were potential side effects he thought his patient should be aware of.  The doctor felt the need to mention this because he believed that most chiropractors don’t inform their patients of those risks.  What?

Ok, first off, of all primary care physicians, chiropractors have the lowest malpractice premiums (malpractice rates are based on the chance of something bad happening).  I personally pay about $100 a month for mine; ask your MD what they pay. Second, chiropractic has been a profession for over 100 years.  During that time there have been approximately 10 cases of serious adverse advents possibly attributed to the chiropractic care.  This is out of billions of adjustments.  Does that mean I should scare all the members of our practice by discussing every possible negative outcome, regardless of how miniscule the chance of it happening might be?  I might as well warn them that they might get struck by lightning or get robbed during their adjustment too.  In fact, our office has been robbed twice during the last eight years (outside of office hours), so this is your fair warning.  We have never been struck by lightning though.  I’m sure you are getting my point in this sarcastic commentary, but let me put another nail or two in this.  SINCE SIDE EFFECT to PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS ARE NOW ONE OF THE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH, CAUSING 100,000 DEATHS A YEAR IN THE U.S., does your M.D. inform you of this VERY REAL statistic before handing you the scrip?

There is still an incredible amount of faith being put into our antiquated medical system and its primary medicinal/surgical approach to remove symptoms and not problems.  For example, why did we have to wait until 2007 to put black box warnings on Zoloft and Paxil acknowledging that they cause suicide in 4 out of 100 kids who are prescribed to take them?  They’ve known about it since 1990!  Remember VIOXX? That powerful pain reliever killed more people than the Vietnam war before they pulled it.  Does your pediatrician inform you that your child has a 50% greater chance of developing asthma each time an antibiotic is prescribed?  Lipitor is the King of the prescription drugs, the amount of profit it earns makes Columbian drug lords look like corner hustlers.  Lipitor is supposed to help lower the risk of Cardiovascular disease, instead, it’s just causing a lot of muscle ache and a lot more VIAGRA, since another side effect is lowered testosterone production.  Oh, and by the way, mercury is a neurotoxin, but please take the next HINI or R2D2 flu vaccine because, even though we haven’t tested its safety, kids and old people need it?  Is it just a fluke that now 1 in 100 kids are autistic?

We just keep buying into this crap, and I’m wondering when it will end.  Well, I know it’s closer, because people aren’t laughing anymore, they generally get angry.  That is how new thoughts conquer old paradigms.  First those new ideas are seen as laughable, then anger, ridicule, and opposition forms, and finally acceptance is achieved.

While I by no means want to live in a society without medicine, I do want to live in a society that uses medicine appropriately.  We are not tapping into the natural healing ability of the human body enough.  This is what the chiropractic lifestyle is all about.  Remove the interference and let the body do its thing.

Much respect,

Dr. M

Belief in Remote Control Cars16 Aug

Recently, I was observing how my son, Nico, 16 months old, was trying to figure out the miracle of pushing a button that made a toy car move from a distance!  I’m using the exclamation point from my Son’s point of reference, as I’m sure you don’t find that too exciting.  Nico would watch the care move, push the other button, then watch the car move backwards, look at me, then the car, then the remote.  At times, he would even touch the antenna of the remote to the antenna of the car.  He did not KNOW how this was happening, but he was at least now in total Belief that it was a true event or phenomenon.

We have experience this turn of events as adults no doubt, such as our first flight in an airplane, 4G cell phones, or maybe even the idea of the internet itself.  At other times it might not be so obvious.  For example, for me to watch a patient/member of our practice see the this truth with the principle of chiropractic care and the adjustment for the achievement of optimal health through improving the efficiency of the nerves that feed info back to the brain and communicate to all cells of the body.

Someone might not know how they gained control of a paralyzed leg by just getting adjustments, or they might not know how they stopped having years of migranes or asthma through seemingly simple chiropractic care.  Once it happened though, at that point, they Believe it to be true because of the results they see and feel.

You see, you don’t need to know exactly how chiropractic adjustments improve these things anymore than you need to know how Tylenol can cause kidney failure.  Once you see it happen, you believe it to be true.  You may even also go on to study exactly how it happens, but most will be satisfied with just seeing and feeling it, like Nico was with the remote contol.  Once you see it happen, you believe it, and that phenomenon is what then forever changes your actions because of a new belief system.

This country and our world in general need a much better belief system when it comes to health and wellness.  Like many of you reading this, we have seen the truth, and we feel a passionate need to keep spreading it.  Please help us do the same.  Without your voice, enough beliefs won’t change and people will continue to treat their health ills with more pain relievers, antibiotics, anti-depressants, drugs for cholesterol, asthma, acid reflux, allergies, asthma and more.  Better health through better chemistry isn’t working, but because most belief systems are the same, we continue to look for answers in the wrong places.

Keep Spreading the TRUTH,

Much respect,

Dr. McKinley

Avandia causes heart attacks? Who would’ve thought….14 Jul

Whatever an expert panel decides today about the diabetes drug Avandia, the way that drug trials were carried out represent a fundamental violation of the social compact between patients and drug companies.”

Another day, another drug company covering up deadly side effects caused by its precription drug.

An FDA panel (comprised of doctors and researchers, many of whom have financial ties to drug companies) is deciding today on whether to pull the diabetes drug, Avandia off the market due to concerns that it causes heart attacks.  Avandia is not a new drug – it has been on the market for decades (its patent will expire in a few years).  In fact this isn’t a case of drug manufacturers rushing the drug untested to market, or promoting off-label, untested uses for it.  Avandia has undergone numerous human clinical trials.  In this case, its maker, GlaxoSmithKline, knew that it increased the risk of heart disease but they covered up the data.  Documents released by a Senate Financial Committee include several emails that record GlaxoSmithKline officials suggesting that certain unfavorable studies concerning the drug “never see the light of day to anyone outside of GSK.”

Avandia’s safety was first publically called into question in 2007 when an analysis by Nissen found that those on the drug had a 43 percent higher risk of heart attacks and a 64 percent higher risk of dying from heart disease.  Though the drug has lost more than half of its sales since the 2007 study (as doctors try to switch to other “safer” medications), it still generated more than $1 billion in revenue and was prescribed to 2.6 million Americans in 2009.

While this story isn’t new, it’s just another example of why better health through better chemistry doesn’t work!  Type II diabetes is a completely preventable disease.  No one has to get it and no one needs to subject themselves or their loved ones to the risk of taking these medications.  If you are currently taking this or any other medication that is for a lifestyle disease please talk to us about how to make a change so you can get off these medications.  You have the power to be health, you are born with it, you just have to do something about it.  Remember, if we don’t change our behaviors we can’t expect our lives to change.  Start today!!!
