4. Chiropractic and the Myth of
Adhesive Capsulitis
One of the most common rationales for NSAIDS as the only possible treatment of chronically restricted knees, shoulders and elbows is the myth of Adhesive Capsulitis. Not saying that it doesn't exist at all - just suggesting it is a snap diagnosis that is often substituted for proper analysis and treatment of a dysfunctional joint. Don't have time to look at it in the 5 minute visit, so we'll call it Adhesive Capsulitis.
As the routine prescription for PT and Motrin winds into its second or third year with no appreciable results, the patient becomes despondent, having resigned himself to a lower quality of life for the foreseeable future. And worse thereafter.
The true Adhesive Capsulitis occurs more commonly after a severe direct trauma to the joint in question: motorcycles, equine, snowboard, automobiles may be involved. Inflammation gives way to the fibrosis of repair.
In the absence of treatment, or ill- advised immobilizing treatment, the familiar cross-fiber matrix becomes laid down to patch up the damaged area. Joint capsule, ligaments, tendons, bursae become infiltrated with scar tissue, which then becomes hyper-innervated with pain neurons. Antalgic loss of full motion.
After a few months the pattern is irrevocably set for a lifetime of stiffness, restriction, loss of strength pain, and disuse.
Now even this situation can be improved by a skilled chiropractor, who's willing to do the work.
But that's not what we're talking about here. We are now discussing the misdiagnosed case of Adhesive Capsulitis wherein the label has been wrongly applied to a sudden onset situation with no trauma, but which shows the same signs and symptoms.
So it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, hurts like a duck but it's really--- what?
Neurological. Tonal. Energetic. Dural.
Just lost half the readers - maybe the new docs. But many of you already know what we're talking about.
So you want me to describe the indescribable here. Limit the illimitable. OK, I'll take a shot.
When chronically frozen joints are suddenly released 50-90% by one adjustment, how could that possibly involve fibrotic scar tissue? It didn’t. It was misdiagnosed. But now some very skilled chiropractor who was trained in advanced techniques, or is a master of a traditional technique, has made the precise adjustment that unlocks and dismantles the whole defective afferent/efferent pathway and replaces it with correct neuro/energetic information from the periphery. The cortex is remodeled, the correct commands are sent via the corticospinal, and voila! – virtually normal range of motion, almost instantaneously.
Like somebody flipped the Reset switch.
How does this happen? Theories abound. 80% of human physiology is still unknown. Just by acknowledging the possibility of such treatment, we’re already closer than the Kaiser geniuses, because all they know is drugs and surgery. They will explain a cure like this as a case where the patient stopped malingering, or some vague psychosomatic babble. They have no idea. Which is why they can’t cure it.
Two possible roads to such a cure include metabolic and chiropractic.
Metabolic would be served by something like the 60 Day Program, taking away the daily inflammatory foods, clearing the tract and blood and taking in only enzyme-rich nutrients, minerals, EFAs, and hydrolyzed collagen. One of the many examples of short term megadosing on hydrolyzed collagen – dramatic results at 1 lb per week. See chapter.
But the tonal reset, the neurological rebalancing is most dramatically observed with chiropractic. Gonstead or diversified technique may do the trick, although often it seems these may have been tried for weeks with limited results.
In my experience, the dramatic cures of misdiagnosed Adhesive Capsulitis result after a masterful adjustment using dural techniques, including Boyd’s Biocranial, Crane Condyle Lift, Alpha Priority, Jose Palomar’s P-PRT, and other advanced AK voodoo tricks, to name just a few.
If more than 50% range of motion is restored in one adjustment, what does that mean? Again, not a case of fibrosis. Not even chiropractic is that good. No, this is something different. Next best guess: the interference was neurological. Tonal. Nerve interference - homeostatic imbalance, corrected neuroplasticity, restoration of energetic tone - something along those lines.
Give us a million dollar kickback and maybe we'll prove it in a peer reviewed journal. Without disclosing the financial connection, of course. Failing that, you have to pick up the Big Idea somewhere along the line.
All this quacking about proof - what's the point? What about the patient? What about the thousands of patients every year who never heard this discussion, and are living out the rest of their days in abject resignation that there is no hope, no cure. I have a bad shoulder, they say. Just like I have a 1995 Supra Twin Turbo. I own it.
They don't have to keep it. That's all I'm saying. They just have to find one of us who knows why not.
Let's stop hiding such an enormous secret, shall we? Let them in!

5. More important now than ever
The Most Reliable Vaccine Textbook For Parents
Vaccination Is Not Immunization
- Tim O'Shea
This is the brand new 2012 Second Edition of the book, a complete re-write, not just a reprint of the old book.
The most reliable book for parents who want to end the confusion once and for all on whether they should vaccinate or not.
If you've read an older version of this text, it's out of date. So much has happened in this field this past year which has not been in media. Quick look:
The Peanut Allergy Epidemic: how vaccines have been found as the proven cause of over 1 million children hypersensitive to peanuts, now the #1 cause of child anaphylaxis
-
The new Shaken Baby industry, which can be a cover-up for vaccine injury
-
The ongoing Autism Epidemic, affecting between 2 -4 million children today and NIH’s refusal to look for the cause
This research is effectively banned from mainstream media. As always though, each fact, each statistic is meticulously documented from the best sources available. The solid references make this information bulletproof.
The vaccine industry today is in a panic. It can no longer keep these secrets hidden. More and more people are learning about the actual physical brain effects on their children, and they’re opting out, signing the exemptions. That’s what all the hysterical new law enforcement of school vaccines and the other desperate new marketing tricks are really about.
With all the effort it takes to opt out, it's not the lazy or the uninformed folks deciding not to vaccinate.
Do you even know what Prevnar or Human Papilloma Virus, or MCV4 or DPT – do you even know what these vaccines are?
And even if you do, wouldn’t you like to know what the scientists who make the vaccines have said about them, down through the decades? Or are you going to get all your information from the clinic that makes its living selling vaccines, just roll over, and vaccinate your kid?
Takes a little reading but it's not that difficult to learn the story here. You can read this book in a day or so.
We are shocked to find that many medical doctors know the information in this book and do not vaccinate their own children. But they’ll vaccinate yours. The majority of the endorsements on the back cover of the book are from medical doctors. Here’s one of the most recent:
"It is impossible to estimate the true value of Dr O'Shea's work. His review of the history of the vaccination industry is vastly more thorough than that taught in medical schools and decisively more balanced.
"… O'Shea has once again blessed us with a resource that will allow parents to make an informed choice, and for medical professionals to take pause at what they had been indoctrinated to believe was valid science and good medicine."
