    This is what I like about Chiropractic therapy. It uses multiple techniques from all parts of the world through history. Remember the term "Medical Practice" as all medicine is not absolute but practice. Chiropractic care uses a lot more Eastern philosophy in prevention. I heard in Asia doctors blame themselves if a patient gets sick. Here in the US MDs treats ailments. In other words doctors incomes depend on people getting sick for repeat business. Kinda scary. Chrispractic care is a making sure the total body is in peak condition to fight any illness. I wish more people knew this. Big medicine has a HUGE financial interest to keep Chiropractic care low key. Sad part about it is many doctors are unaware of this as they are never taught this in school.
    If I had to create the best MD, I would incorporate equal prevention & traditional medicine. Great job Dr. Beau and you bring awareness.✌

    Your hammer technique comes from Tok Sen, a part of Thai massage. Almost every tool used today can be traced to our ancestors. Graston comes from Gua Sha, a Chinese technique of scraping using a coin or a jade blade. Cupping comes from both Chinese and Middle Eastern cupping/bloodletting practices. Dry needling comes from Acupuncture.

    • @allenbot
      @allenbot 3 года назад +1

      tok sen is for the muscles, his hammer is for the bones. that's why he pokes the serratus anterior instead of hammering it. Gua Sha is similar. Cupping is just a thing worldwide and dry needling is different from acupuncture. It does involve a needle into the body but the practice is definitely different. But hey we can thank Asia for many relief methods we have nowadays :)

    Man after I saw a chiro for (tech neck) I left feeling like I had been in a car accident. Entire appointment was rushed not a good experience. I wish I could find a local chiro that would spend the time with me to explain what's going on and actually give me 10 seconds or so to relax before the next adjustment.

    Hey Beau, I noticed on a few of your videos , that after you do different adjustments, some of your patients seem to get really giddy, is this from a release
    of endorphins into the blood stream ??

    Why do I love these videos? I imagine I'm getting adjusted because I wish I was getting these adjustments. That's weird, so I guess I'm weird. Nine years of UPS really messed up my neck. If I could afford to do this at least twice a week, I definitely would.

    I would love to see you do an acupuncturist . It’s awesome seeing the exchange of knowledge, ideas, styles and schools of thought
