Day 36 ~ Treat The Cause

All too often either we or our doctors seem to just treat the symptoms we have with meds. We need to figure out what the cause of our symptoms are and then treat that. If we took less meds and took the time to really figure out what is causing the symptoms we would save a lot of money, heartache, and pain! Sometimes I think people end up getting cancer because they only treat the symptoms and not the cause.

When your foot hurts does it make sense to go to a regular doctor or a foot doctor? It makes more sense to go to the guy who specializes in feet. When your back hurts, what does a regular doctor do? They give you pain killers and a muscle relaxer. What does that do except mask the pain and allowing your brain to think it is healed which can cause more damage. A chiropractor will treat the cause fixing the problem.

So next time you have aches and pains, stop and try to figure out the cause before you treat the symptoms. Use your family, friends, or even I can try to help but you should have an idea of a cause before you go to the doctor. Remember, some of them get paid a lot of money from the pharmacy companies to "push" their drugs.
