Psychiatrists Vote?

Want to get your dander up? Check out the video on psychiatric treatment ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?
(1) Psychiatrists admit that there are no medical tests that can prove anyone has a “mental illness.”
(2) Psychiatrists admit they cannot cure their patients.
(3) Yet, insurance in the U.S. alone pays out $69 billion in mental health costs annually. (Could you imagine that money going into UC research and wellness care?)
(4) International psychiatric drug sales have reached &76 billion per year…despite international warnings that psychiatric drugs can cause suicide, violence, psychosis mania, heart attacks, and sudden death.
Doctors interviewed stated “Who benefits from all of this? The person making the diagnosis”. The interesting wrap up consists of these doctors answering the question, “How many patients have you cured?” The answer…. NONE!
New and talented UC docs opening everywhere. Life West grads Drs. Marc & Katie DeMeester have just opened up in the Lakewood/Golden, Colorado area. Write down their contact info, which is:
Drs. Marc and Katie DeMeester
14828 W. 6th. Ave. Ste. 16-B, Golden, CO 80401
phone# (303) 601-3820
Katie wrote me about the new concussion study from the NFL, here is what she wrote:
“In the new study, 1,063 ex-players were asked if they had ever been diagnosed with dementia, Alzheimer’s disease or other memory-related disease. About 2 percent of the former players ages 30 to 49 said yes. That’s 19 times the rate for the same age group in the general population.”
For retirees over 50, the rate of about 6 percent was about five times higher. The study, which hasn’t been published in a peer-reviewed journal, was done for the NFL by researchers at the University of Michigan.”
Got some top notch UC docs looking for an associateship opportunity. Dr. David Yates, interned with Dr. Drew Hall, and has been practicing in Colorado. He is now looking for a position as an associate in an Upper Cervical office starting in January. If you have an opening, contact him at dryates1@gmail.com
That wasn’t BJ turning is his grave Friday night, that was BJ applauding! What am I talking about? Dr. Drew Hall gave a talk to 300+ students and faculty on the Palmer campus at the Lyceum Hall and, as Drs. Schurger and Ohlsen told me, it caused quite a stir! Drew spoke for over an hour and the subject was THE GREAT DIVIDE. Drew talked about chiropractic education straying away from INNATE towards musculoskeletal therapies and then showed a power point of some amazing recoveries he has seen ( cognitive improvement, seizure disorders, diabetes,…) and then stated ‘tongue in cheek’ that he was glad musculoskeletal chiropractic ‘cured’ those conditions! Needless to say, there were some ruffled feathers…but a three minute standing ovation lead me to believe that the students were excited about his SPIZZ!!!
Dr. Roger Morrison sent this site to me regarding a place to purchase ‘real bone specimens’. Here is what they say: You might notice that Skulls Unlimited International recently launched
a new and improved website. Skulls Unlimited is “The Worlds Leading Supplier
of Osteological Specimens” http://cts.vresp.

Brandon Harshe is an Upper Cervical chiropractic student who really wants the UC message to spread like wildfire. So here are some of his ideas:
I would really love to see other chiropractic blogs on the Internet, mostly Upper Cervical Chiropractic blogs.That’s why I’ve put together an e-book teaching chiropractors how to properly set up and maintain a successful blog. It’s called Done By Hand: The Blueprint to Chiropractic Blogging Success. It is available for download on my blog at the following link: http://bit.ly/1dtd08
We, as upper cervical docs and students, complain that people don’t know what we do, or that they think we’re just a bunch of back-crackers. Only we can change that, and a blog is the perfect tool. Considering most people get their information from the Internet nowadays, you need a website to establish yourself as an expert in your field. A blog allows you to constantly share fresh material with your readers a.k.a. patients or future patients.
Not to mention, what if your patients are reading your blog and learning about upper cervical between office visits? How much better would they understand the upper cervical principle if you could teach them that “holding is healing” without having to be there?
Go download this e-book and follow the instructions inside. If you have any trouble whatsoever, or are stuck on something, email me at drbharshe@gmail.com and I will be happy to help you. Enjoy
This may be a typical in California case:
32 y/o woman came in for care due to very severe constant neck and thoracic pain, constant headaches,…and despite meds and PT, absolutely no changes occurred. So she tried chiropractic…daily supine rotary break on each side followed by a jolting traction maneuver. She would cry out in pain when ‘adjusted’ and the doctor’s flippant comment was, “That is part of the process!” She even read an article that said that silicone can cause neck pain, so she had her implants removed. (Needless to say, she didn’t get that advice from Drew!) Got her adjusted Monday and she was amazed that a segment could be repositioned painlessly. Glad she gave our profession a second chance!!!
Take care-
Tom
