The core elements of Chiropractic grew out of the thinking and philosophical concepts of D. D. Palmer, the founder of Chiropractic, and his son, B. J. Palmer. These principles were then compiled and transformed into thirty-three principles in R. W. Stephenson's groundbreaking textbook in 1927.These thirty-three principles offer a logical and deductive navigational process for locating, analyzing, and correcting vertebral subluxation, but their value does not end there. As Chiropractor and international speaker Dr. David Serio reveals, the thirty-three principles of Chiropractic are at their essence a philosophy for life.In 33, Serio asks Doctors of Chiropractic from around the world to explain chiropractic principles to the public. You'll discover how the principles add clarity and insight to our daily lives and our understanding of the universe. Serio supports his interviewees' thoughts with inspirational quotations and his own insightful comments and practical tips.From the core concept of universal intelligence to time, physical laws, adaptation, and human consciousness, the thirty-three principles offer a road map for a healthy, productive life. Chiropractic students, doctors, and even those who are simply curious about the enduring truths in life and health will find 33 an absorbing, intriguing exploration into the core values of a fascinating discipline.
