When we are not philosophically sound, we lose sight on what it is we do. We need to remember that when we specifically adjust the spine, we increase the communication from the brain to whatever area of the body that nerve goes to.
Our job as chiropractors is to find the subluxation, adjust it, than maintain that correction long enough, until the innate processes takes over again.
That's it!
Dr. Carey
What will it take until you realize that, you ARE INNATE? What is it going to take until you realize that we are NOT back pain doctors? We are not physical therapist or Bells Palsy specialist or geriatric practitioners or pediatric specialist.
We are CHIROPRACTORS, we find SUBLUXATIONS, we correct them and that is it! We allow the body to do what it is supposed to do without interference and in doing so, we reconnect man the physical to what it is that created it.
INNATE is easy, don't make it more difficult then it has to be. That is what I took away from this episode. What did you take away?
Dr. Carey
Wishful thinking never got anyone anywhere! I didn't used to think that, but that is when I was actively trying to drink myself to death, so we all know how much we can trust that person.
This episode, is my father explaining the difference between wishful thinking and envisioning what it is you want for you and for your practice. It is also a great first step towards understanding what it is you need to do to take your practice from wherever it is to exactly where you ENVISION it to be, not where you wish it was.
Take a few moments and have a listen and when your are done, take my suggestion at the end and head on over to www.Sigafoose.com and join Sigafoose Weekly. I promise you will not regret it.

Is Innate in your garden? How about in your cat or dog? Is Innate in the fish in the ocean or the sequoias of California? If Innate is in all living things, then I think the answer to all of my questions is YES!
There is intelligence in all living matter, now that does not mean it knows how to drive a car or build a skyscraper, but then again we don't know how to change the color of our skin like a Chameleon.
So seeing that there is intelligence in all living matter, doesn't that mean it may want to live or survive or continue to propagate itself? Well if you made it this far into my rant, I suggest that you listen to what my father has to say about it all.
Side note, this episode is one where I pretty much agree with everything my father, Dr. Sig, has to say.
Miracles never cease! (LOL)

Innate, Innate, Innate! That seems to be what my topics have been about lately, I guess because overtime I listen to one of my fathers recordings, that seems to be what he is talking about, so that must be what I am supposed to be hearing and working on.
This week Dr. Sigafoose talks about Innate and Materialistic and Ideological thinking. Now if you are confused with that, it is like Mechanistic and Vitalistic, or pain base versus subluxation based. You getting the point? If not then let me try to explain it to you this way.
Materialistic, is basically understanding chiropractic science and art, but not totally understanding the philosophy, yet you might try, but you don't educate your patients about it.
Ideological, is understanding the science, art and philosophical part of chiropractic and understanding the connection of Innate and the spirit/religious aspect and or nature of what it is we do.
You know what, just listen and let me know what you think it means.
