As a practitioner of chiropractic, I have often found myself in the uncomfortable position of having to defend the professional objective I am licensed to practice. Unfortunately, alternative health care disciplines like chiropractic are relentlessly attacked by mainstream media companies, the petrochemical industry, organized medicine and others. Any healing art that even hints at the idea that health can be attained, regained, or improved from the inside out, without the use of synthetic products and dangerous surgeries, is a sure target for ridicule by the scientific community.
It is quite ironic that what is often embraced by society as science is really quackery. One of the most frustrating things I have had to witness year after year, are the blatant lies being published and distributed concerning cancer, autoimmune disorders and many other diseases that the drug companies profit from. In most instances, natural health practitioners are unable to point out to healthcare consumers, on a large platform, the illogical nature of mainstream, medical objectives. There is just way too much money at work in the various campaigns that promote such nonsense as real science. Unfortunately, the “global powers that be” closely control the mainstream media productions that are continuously broadcast and greatly influence the masses about what is perceived to be science and quackery.
Several years ago, Angelina Jolie, decided to have elective breast surgery (a double mastectomy to prevent breast cancer in her immediate future). Angelina’s decision was touted by many in the media as something that was positive. She was applauded on television by men and women for being proactive in the fight against breast cancer.
Since Jolie’s announcement about her procedure, others have also decided to have this type of surgery, and have written about how their decisions have changed their lives for the better on Internet blogs. It seems that the self-mutilation of women is now considered a good thing by mainstream medicine. Once again, idiot medicine is being promoted to the masses as the best thing science has to offer.
