Pregnant? Chiropractic, by definition...
CHIROPRACTIC, BY DEFINITION... Dr. Ryan T. Jenkins, see below.
PREGNANT? OBs and CNMwives are closing birth canals up to 30%. See PROOF in the postscript. OBs are performing GRUESOME mass spinal manipulation on babies - violently pushing on tiny spines (with oxytocin and Cytotec) and gruesomely pulling (with hands, forceps and vacuums) - with birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%. Sometimes OBs pull so hard they rip spinal nerves out of tiny spinal cords. Some babies die, some babies get paralyzed - most babies "only" have their spines gruesomely wrenched. ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal closed up to 30%. For simple instructions on how to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%, see the very end of this post. CHIROPRACTIC, BY DEFINITION... "Chiropractic, by definition, cannot be fragmented; it has to be holistic in its approach or it will cease to exist." --Ryan T. Jenkins, DC, CSCS http://www.chiroweb.com/archives/22/14/09.html OPEN LETTER (archived for global access; see below) Ryan T. Jenkins, DC, CSCS Germantown, Maryland Ryan, I wrote the definition of chiropractic for Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary [1988,1994,2000] I agree: Chiropractic, by definition, cannot be fragmented, it has to be holistic in its approach. Accordng to Dr. DD Palmer, chiropractors were to practice obstetrics, "the art of midwifery." [1910:789] I'm NOT saying that doctors of chiropractic should start attending homebirths again... But with obstetricians and midwives knowingly closing birth canals up to 30% and gruesomely manipulating most babies' spines (see PROOF below)... The chiropractic profession is missing a golden opportunity to do some NON-SPINAL chiropractic adjusting which will save tiny lives and tiny limbs and PREVENT more vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to adjust by hand. See: I ain't no Semmelweis, but... http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2591 With the chiropractic trade unions dragging their feet... Fortunately, ANYONE - licensed, degreed, or not - can engage in the requisite non-spinal (educational) chiropractic adjusting. See Canadians to 'delist' OB spinal manipulation (with birth canal closed up to 30%)? http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2578 And see: Fitness trainers to prevent birth injuries? (also: Stress, chiropractic and natural childbirth) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2584 ONE LAST NOTE, RYAN... You write: "[i]n general, the practice of medicine is merit-based..." http://www.chiroweb.com/archives/22/14/09.html In general, the practice of American medicine is an obvious criminal enterprise. See Criminal medical CAM at Hawai'i's John A Burns School of Medicine http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2256 Much "merit" in medicine = silence about obvious MD crime. JUST THINK The most prolific spinal manipulators in America - MD-obstetricians - are the WORST spinal manipulators in America. Let's at least bring some merit to the spinal manipulation end of medicine. Please help stop OBs and CNMwives from closing birth canals. Sincerely, Todd Dr. Gastaldo PS PROOF that OBs and CNMwives are routinely closing birth canals up to 30%... The fact that semisitting and dorsal close the birth canal is simple biomechanics. See Gastaldo TD. Letter. Birth 1992;19(4):230. Here's my source for the 30% figure... "[T]he outlet increases with moulding by approximately 20-30 per cent." --Russell JGB. Moulding of the pelvic outlet. J Obstet Gynaec Brit Cwlth 1969;76:817-20. NOTE: In 1973, Ohlsen verified Russell's 20% figure on Borell and Fernstrom's 1957 intrapartum x-rays. Ohlsen pointed out that the authors of Williams Obstetrics were claiming that the pelvic diameters *don't change* during delivery (!) - so the authors of Williams Obstetrics decided (erroneously) that dorsal delivery widens! Interestingly, early last century, J. Whitridge Williams, MD, the original author of Williams Obstetrics demonstrated MASSIVE amounts of change in pelvic outlet diameter change at-term - and Borell and Fernstrom's 1957 intrapartum x-ray study accorded with the average amount of pelvic outlet diameter change Williams found clinically... See: http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html Jason Gardosi, MD, director of the British National Health Service/NHS West Midlands Perinatal Institute/WMPI states the grisly biomechanics of the semirecumbent delivery position (semisitting): "...the weight of the mother is in part taken on the sacrum which is therefore pushed upwards, thus decreasing the antero-posterior diameter of the pelvic outlet..." http://www.wmpi.net/reviews/oe/oe_shoulder_dystocia.htm The funny thing is, Jason Gardosi, MD also *recommends* semisitting (closing the birth canal) - or used to! "The second stage...You might want to remain in bed with your back propped up with pillows...As you push, try to let yourself 'open up' below..." http://www.preg.info/book/chapter11.htm NOTE: Jason Gardosi, MD and his fellow British OB pal Malcolm Griffiths once got me censored from an international OB/GYN listserv - but fortunately not before two of my posts were archived thereon: http://forums.obgyn.net/forums/ob-gy...9707/0128.html http://forums.obgyn.net/ob-gyn-l/OBGYNL.9707/0153.html Anyone interested in some entertaining obstetric reading, check out Jason's 1989 Lancet "randomised controlled trial of squatting" - where nobody squatted... See Sarah Key's huge balls (also: Kids can SQUAT motionless for hours)... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2084 MORE PROOF According to the Merck Manual: "When shoulder dystocia occurs...the mother's thighs are hyperflexed to increase the diameter of the pelvic outlet..." http://www.merck.com/mrkshared/mmanu...er253/253g.jsp WHY are OBs and CNMwives (nurse midwives) waiting until the head is out and shoulders get stuck before giving the baby maximum pelvic outlet diameter? WHY are OBs and CNMwives forcing babies' heads through birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%? WHY are OBs and CNMwives KEEPING birth canals closed when babies' shoulders get stuck? (Merely hyperflexing the thighs does NOT get the woman off her sacrum. This is BAD McRoberts maneuver. ON A POSITIVE NOTE: Gardosi et al.'s WMPI site (quoted above) recommends a version of GOOD McRoberts if the shoulders get stuck... http://www.wmpi.net/reviews/oe/oe_shoulder_dystocia.htm) LADIES: HELP PROTECT YOUR VAGINAS... OBs and CNMwives are slicing vaginas (euphemism "routine episiotomy") - surgically/FRAUDULENTLY inferring everything possible is being done to OPEN birth canals - even as they CLOSE birth canals - up to 30%! See Criminal medical CAM at Hawai'i's John A Burns School of Medicine http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2256 Sorry to be repetitive but... WEIRD: In 1993, the authors of Williams Obstetrics published the correct biomechanics at my request but they left in their text (in the same paragraph!) the "dorsal widens" bald lie that first called my attention to their text. The "dorsal widens" bald lie was created when Ohlsen informed the authors of Williams Obstetrics in 1973 that they were still claiming that the pelvic diameters *don't change* at delivery! ALSO WEIRD: Before Ohlsen stimulated their "dorsal widens" bald lie, the authors of Williams Obstetrics were ignoring Borell and Fernstrom's 1957 RADIOGRAPHIC demonstration that the diameters DO change - and this MANY years after (way back in 1911) J. Whitridge Williams, MD - the first author of Williams Obstetrics - clinically demonstrated 4cm of AP outlet diameter change! For details: See my Open Letter to FTC at: http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS PREGNANT WOMEN: It is EASY for you to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%. Just roll onto your side as you push your baby out - or deliver on hands-and-knees, kneeling, standing, squatting, etc. BUT BEWA "Midwives...encourage...semisitting." (closing the birth canal!) --Yale CNMwifery Prof. Helen Varney. Varney's Midwifery. Sudbury, MA: Jones and Bartlett. 4th ed. 2004:839] Some MDs and MBs will let you "try" "alternative" delivery positions but will move you back to dorsal or semisitting (close your birth canal!) as you push your baby out! If your baby's shoulders get stuck OBs and CNMwives will KEEP your birth canal closed! Yale CNMwifery Prof. Varney (just cited) writes: "In the event of...shoulder dystocia...the woman should be in a lithotomy position..." (p. 839) Lithotomy position keeps the birth canal closed! So does semisitting! Talk to your CNMwife or MD or MB about this TODAY. (For further details see "Criminal medical CAM," URL above.) CNMwives/MDs/MBs: If you must push or pull - and sometimes you must - first get the woman off her sacrum - off her back/butt. Thanks for reading everyone.
