Publisher Description
On the one side I see a growing profession that has served mankind for 123 years, easing pain and promoting health without drugs or surgery, surely occupying a noble and praiseworthy role in healthcare. I have also experienced great personal satisfaction in seeing patients respond to an adjustment with immediate relief from what was causing them distress. On the other hand, I look back over those 52 years in practice and see the years of frustration and torment caused by the unrelenting and often inhumane opposition by a competing profession and related industry, often backed by governments as well as the main stream media with the belief that the winner takes all. This opposition has never been about concern for the wellbeing of patients, it has always been about control over our bodies and the income that can be derived from them, not just by the would-be monopoly (medicine) but also by the industry that controls them (the pharmaceutical industry).
