The Mind, Body and Soul Interconnectivity
The practice of chiropractic care focuses on the relationship
between your spine and your nervous system. The spine is the
structure, and the nervous system is the function. Chiropractic
believes these two systems work in unison to keep and then
restore your body's health.
The word "chiropractic" is taken from Greek, and means "done by
hand". This is exactly how chiropractic care works. The
chiropractor uses his or her hands to manipulate your body, and
help it to heal itself. It is the branch of the health sciences
which focuses on the neuromusculoskeletal system.
That's a very big word to simply say how your spine and nervous
system work together. The spine is the highway for your central
nervous system; if the highway is blocked or traffic is jammed,
they are usually able healers. Many cultures, the Egyptians, the
Greeks, the Chinese, and even the Africans have used some form
of chiropractic care for hundreds of years.
Modern alternative medicine and holistic healers believe in the
power of the energy that flows through our bodies; this energy
radiates from our mind as well. It is believed to be the chief
from of transportation for our body's nervous system to carry
out communication.
Acupuncture is one of the key components of Traditional Chinese
Medicine (TCM), and operates on the premise that the body is
divided into two opposing and inseparable forces, the yin and
yang. Yin represents the cold, slow, or passive principle, and
yang represents the hot, excited or active principle. According
to TCM health is achieved by maintaining a balance state of the
yin and yang. This is
done through the vital pathways or
meridians that allow for the flow of qi, or vital energy. The
vital energy flow occurs along pathways known as meridians.
These meridians connect over 2,000 acupuncture points along the
body.
There are 12 main meridians, and 8 secondary meridians. Although
traditional western medicine does not completely understand how
acupuncture works, the proof that it does work has been shown in
several studies conducted by western medical facilities
Finally, in the last few years, traditional western medicine has
come to accept the role that your mind, body and soul have in
keeping each other healthy, during daily processes, or
recovering from surgery. Almost every form of healing accepts
and incorporates the fact that our bodies have a "vital energy
force" that flows through, from top to bottom. This "life force"
as some refer to the energy, helps to keep us connected, mind,
body, and soul. To come to the understanding, as modern medicine
finally has, that there are certain aspects of our health that
we cannot place neatly in a physical process, has been a
difficult revelation for believers of the purely scientific
approaches to healing and medicine.
It's impossible to separate the mind from the body, or the body
from the soul. Their interconnectivity is the basis for our
life's meaning and existence. It is because of this connection,
that we are able to heal ourselves in the beginning.
