If there was ever any doubt, this video serves as proof for parents that you are role models for your kids. The way you eat, drink, smoke, and exercise (or not exercise), gives your children a blueprint for their life.

This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, “It runs in the family.” For those of you who’ve ever used this logic, you’re probably right… Health problems often do run in your family, but not because of your genetic makeup… Instead, it’s because you’ve mimicked so many of the same bad habits as your parents and grandparents.

Remember: Monkey see, monkey do.

They’re hoping to link their problem to a specific incident that set the stage for spinal degeneration.

Sometimes these events took place so long ago that they’re difficult to remember. But that’s not the case for one of my most recent patients. Not only could she remember a very specific injury, but she also had the video to remind her of it! She’s been kind enough to allow me to share this clip with you.

In the slow motion recap, notice how her head and neck get whipped from side to side several times before the horse bucks her 6-8 feet into the air. Any phase of this process could be injurious to the spine, let alone the whole experience!

Despite how painful it looks, she’s very lucky. A similar event happened to Christopher Reeve. His fall fractured the top bone of his neck, which left him completely paralyzed.

Whenever you experience a slip, fall, or get knocked in the head, it’s very important to get checked by a chiropractor.



Here’s the spectacular story of race car driver, Tony Schumaker, who crashed his dragster at 320-MPH and lived to tell about it… At 5:33 in this video, he discusses his personal recovery while undergoing Upper Cervical Care.

Rhonda is the wife of James Tomasi, author of What Time Tuesday. You may have already heard James share his touching story about Trigeminal Neuralgia, but few know that Rhonda too benefited from Upper Cervical Care.

Many women who experience uterine fibroids, endometriosis, or painful periods aren’t aware that their problem may be linked to an imbalance within their nervous system… so I’m sure there are thousands of women who share Rhonda’s original mindset that chiropractic care couldn’t possibly help them.

It reminds me of an old saying, “You don’t know what you don’t know.” And when it comes to what chiropractic care is and how it helps people, a lot of people simply don’t know.

Years ago I had the privilege of caring for a registered nurse who’d been diagnosed with endometriosis and was told that she’d probably never be able to have children as a result. As a medical professional working on a surgical floor, she wasn’t leaping at the idea of visiting a chiropractor. After finally being persuaded to look into it by a family member, her opinion changed. Here’s what she had to say after receiving Upper Cervical Care:

“I delivered a healthy baby boy 10 months later through a healthy and fairly easy pregnancy, undergoing Dr. Tanase’s treatment the whole way through, and now, 19 months later, I am just about to deliver my second child! I cannot stress enough the absolute miracle that Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care has been for myself, my husband, and even my family and friends whom all decided to try it too. We are living proof that it works.”

Upper Cervical Care is not a treatment or “cure” for any of these conditions, but it may contribute to your recovery or improve quality of life. In that respect, I believe it’s worth consideration. If you’d like assistance finding a doctor near you, email me.
