Chiropractic is based upon the principle ofthe law which governs the Universe, Natural Law. CHIRO- PRACTIC contends that the Creator in HIS wisdom created everything in the human body to retain and main- tain normal-health-everything has its purpose--there is nothing superfluous or lacking. It is a full and com- plete unlt created to manifest its definite purpose, the work of the Innate Intelligence in tune with universal law. Innate Intelligence is the expression of the miracle performing substance commonly referred to as Life. It emanates from brain thru spinal cord, then thru nerves toreach every tissue cell and there express itself in miraculous action of changing common food into living flesh and blood. It miraculously manufactures by means of countless glands all secretions in the human body.3Secretions to aid in digestion. Secretions to lubri- cate andi prevent inflammation in all moving parts. Secretions to serve as protection against disease. Secre- tions to heal andzmend the body, and last but not least, secretions to enjoy God's greatest gift to men--Repro- duction. i i However, when there is a pressure on a nerve, it interfers with the normal transmission of mental impul- ses of Innate Intelligence between brain cell and tissue cell. Consequently, abnormal function follows and causes dis-ease. In Chiropractic, pressures on the nerve is located and corrected re-establishing normal flow of mental impulses, so Innate Intelligence can produce normal and restore health. Can Chiropractic Cure all disease? The Innate Intelligence inaturei does the healing, and is only limit ed by the material it has for expression. There is an Innate Intelligence resident within a seed, but it cannot express itself on a cement sidewalk. Likewise, with the human body. We cannot expect complete restoration of health when vital parts have been removed or if tissue is destroyed by foreign a matter injected into the body, or if the conditionis so far advanced because of neglect wherein it is deteriorated beyond repair, Chiro- practorsaccept the principle that the whole Universe including man, is God made and the law He created is perfect in every detail. This is the Chiropractic concept of the cause and cure of all disease. -- B.J.
