Alternative Medicine in a Medical World (re-post)

I wrote this post back in February but thought it would be great to share it with you again since some of you may not have read it and it’s about our story and choice to live a Healthier life.

We do not give our children medicine or do any vaccines. It’s up to you as the parent to make the right choices for your child/ren and we DO NOT judge anyone of their choices. We also want to provide you with our story and what we have done with our kids, not that we are 100% correct on everything/parenting, however, we do think an alternative to any medicine/surgery and doing the research yourself is BEST for your child/ren.

Many people would consider us just “lucky” but we don’t think that. Yes, we believe we are blessed but we believe we have and are taking the right precautions that we don’t get into situations where medicine/surgery in needed. And don’t get me wrong, if there was a major trauma, act of God, car accident, etc. then we would get the treatment we needed of course! (I have to get 2 wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow and I’ll be put to sleep)

We believe that getting your child/ren (and youself) under chiropractic care make a world of difference.

Julia our daughter has never been to the doctor except at her 1 month check-up to check on weight. And I did take Lincoln for the 1st 8 months, just for well-baby check ups, never for vaccines and I did give him Tylenol a couple of times before we realized the negative effects and possibilities they could have on him (in our opinion).

Since then, neither have had any major issues and continue to get adjustments. Lincoln has had an ear infection where we used chiropractic and natural ear drops to heal it; he also had croup where we used steam baths, adjustments and rest to help.

And both have had their share of fevers, Julia having more, where we have used chiropractic, warm baths, fluids, and rest to get over. If you allow their bodies to build up immunity then they will heal quicker, better and be able to do it on their own instead of having to rely on medicines.

All of our bodies were made with the ability to heal on their own (innate ability), that’s how God made us! there may be an interference that needs to be helped out with a chiropractic adjustment. *Remember, your spine & brain controls your nervous system, which in turn controls every function in your body.

For some, chiropractic becomes and issue of money but I’d say to calculate all of your bills up from doctors visits, prescriptions, Tylenol’s, etc. and see the cost of that. You may find that chiropractic is cheaper in the long run.

I hope that I haven’t offended any one! I just want EVERY family to know there are alternatives and I am willing to help you check it out. Thanks for reading and I am here to answer any questions!
