Clinton News-Record, 1985-12-11, Page 36It's controversial topic Continued from page4 ed and they realize, 'There's an intelligence behind this.' When you sit down and talk to somebody and help theca understand what you're do- ing, then all of the misconcep- tions start to fade. All of the old wives; tales start to disappear." Sometimes people are dissatified with chiropractic, he said, because of their ex- pectations. Not only are they trying chiropractic as a last resort, they are also looking for instant solutions. "Our society is advertise- ment oriented tip recovery. The media promotes quick , immediate gratifica- , fast answers to our pro- blems, and the chiropractic approach isn't the quick answer. That doesn't make some people very happy. They want you to wave a magic wand and make them better. "And most of the problems that walk through the door are the result of lifestyle, the result of the way a person has abused themselves over a period of time, whether it's six months, or six years, or sixty years. I can't change that overnight. We have to work at it together, me doing my part here in the office, and them doing their part at home. If we both do our parts, they will get results as quick- ly as their bodies can possibly take them. The term 'holistic medicine' has become very popular lately. Well, chiropractors have been practicing holistic medicine since 1895. "We are health care oriented, not disease care oriented. We want to work with healthy individuals - as well as the people who are not healthy - to keep them from getting sick through nutri- tional counselling, maintain- ing a good level of spinal hygiene, a good fitness level, and so on." He equatesthis philosophy with the one dentistry pro- motes, making it especially important to work with children to help prevent pro- blems, such as spinal cur- vatures, in adulthood. Most chiropractors, he said, feel so strongly that children should have chiropratic care, they only charge half of the patient portion of the fee or, like Harvey, waive it completely. (OHIP pays about 45% of the cost of treatment to a max- imum of $190 per person per year. The remainder is paid for by patients themselves or by other health care plans.) What can a person expect if they go to a chiropractor? Harvey explained and assess- ment will be done using objec- tive and subjective findings such as case history, spinal manipulation, palpitation, observation, what the patient perceives to be the problem, and, in some instances, x- rays. The chiropractor will then explain his diagnosis to the patient. If he feels he is the appropriate health care practitioner, he will outline his proposed method of treat- ment "up front," including the steps the patient must take to regain health. "Letting people make in- formed decisions about their health care, I think," said Harvey, "is the first step towards healing. They can understand what the problem is in lay persons' terms. And possibly, seek out another opi- nion, which is fine. Then, they can take the active role in their problem instead of sit- ting back as passive in- dividuals watching what other people are doing with their lives. I think that's what makes chiropractic work." If the patient decides to go ahead with treatment, the ap- proach is three phase. "Number ne, get the pa- tient out of Oin. Number two, continue the .treatment and remove the entire cause of pain, so not only are you feel- ing well, you are actually healthy. Number three, get the person into some sort of program which involves good diet, good exercise habits, and regular spinal check- ups." Chiropractors have adopted Please turn to page 6 'ono!
