THE DOCTOR OF CHIROPRACTIC
When one automobile is struck by another, thousands of
pounds of force are exerted upon the neck and spine of the
passengers. The head, which is very heavy compared to the neck,
is thrust toward the hitting vehicle. The muscles then stretch and
react with a violent spasm in the opposite direction.
The painful result is injury to the muscles, ligaments, nerves
and, on occasion, broken bones. A wreck victim isn't all right if

he or she does not have any broken bones. When a bone is broken
AND
DR. STANLEY LEVINE it heals with bone and becomes stronger than before. Soft tissue,
however, heals as scar tissue, which is weaker and less resistant.
Just like a bruised apple, scar tisue NEVER RETURNS TO ITS ORIGINAL
STATE. Even a minor automobile accident can have major ill effects on your
health. It may be weeks, months, or even years before the problem shows itself.
But, by then, it may be too late to prevent your greatest loss — your health.
Chiropractic will usually provide rapid relief from the symptoms of accident
distress by employing comfortable corrective measures. Have your spine checked
by experts.
