His multi-specialty practice is something to behold, should you desire to work in conjunction with other professionals in the healing arts. Learn from Dr. Dekanich, as he's learned from so many of the greats! Next, don't miss this opportunity to update yourself on the latest in Upper Cervical Techniques, through Dr. Marshall Dickhotlz's summary of the headline-grabbing hypertension .study that was done in conjunction with the University of Chicago. I love the common knock on chiropractic: "Where's the science?" I guess that would be the question asked by someone that has never looked for it. or is unaware of what the word science even means. Anyway, the follow up to this study should be hitting some time around the end of the year, according to sources close to NUCCA, and will contain a larger population being tested. This is serious stuff when you consider that the annual expenditure on meds to control hypertension in the United States is $ 1,131 per person, meaning an incremental annual direct expenditure of nearly 55 billion dollars nationally. Hypertension expenditures represent a significant amount of health care resource use.1 Further, Dr. Rodger Murphree continues to demonstrate alternatives to current standard of care type medical therapies in use today. This issue, he tackles ADD or ADHD. As you read, please remember, Dr. Murphree is someone that has studied the issues in question, and done what he writes about; so, if you're going to use a resource or guide on the topic, he would be a good one. For safety's sake, follow-up studies on the pharmaccuticals currently being used to treat this condition should be done 40 and 60 years out going forward, as they have yet to be studied in that time frame. That's not all; find out for yourself. Keep your mind sharp; read this magazine cover to cover! Till next month.
