Chakras: This term addresses the seven vital energy centers of the
body. The chakras extends from the base of spine to the crown of head and is
located in the rectal area, near the genitals, behind the navel, at the heart,
at the neck, between the eyebrows, and on the crown of the head. Each chakra
corresponds to certain colors, emotions, organs, nerve networks, and energies.
Chelation Therapy: Typically administered in an osteopathic or medical
doctor’s office, chelation therapy is a series of intravenous injections of
the synthetic amino acid EDTA, designed to detoxify the body. This type of
therapy is often used to treat arteriosclerosis, angina, and Alzheimer’s
disease. EDTA stands for Ethylenediaminetetruacetic acid (an amino acid). FDA
approved for removing lead and other heavy metals from the bloodstream. One
theory holds that chelation removes the calcium in arterial plaque; another
suggests that EDTA works as an antioxidant. Proponents say that chelation also
reverses gangrene, relieves the pain associated with lupus and arthritis, and
reverses memory loss.
Chiropractic: The chiropractic system is based on the premise that the
spine is literally the backbone of human health. Misalignments of the vertebrae
caused by poor posture or trauma result in pressure on the spinal nerve roots,
which may lead to diminished function and illness. The chiropractor seeks to
analyze and correct these misalignments through spinal manipulation or
adjustments.
Colon Hydrotherapy: Involves the cleansing of the large intestine with
warm purified water. A single colonic treatment is said to be equivalent to
several enemas in removing toxic debris from the colon.
Complementary Medicine: An environment where the citizen may direct
their health restoration by choosing what they believe is a correct blend of
treatments from all possible choices.
Craniosacral Therapy: A manual procedure for remedying distortions in
the structure and function of the craniosacral mechanism - the brain and spinal
cord, the bones of the skull, the sacrum, and interconnected membranes. It is
used to treat chronic pain, migraine headaches, TMJ, and a range of other
conditions.
