OPEN LETTER

Dear findchiropractors.com,

MD-obstetricians - the most prolific spinal manipulators - are knowingly
closing birth canals up to 30%. (See PROOF in PS3 below.)

Why not persuade the chiro trade unions to advertise the fact that - in
addition to knowingly closing birth canals - OBs are gruesomely manipulating
most babies' spines?

Why not persuade the chiro trade unions to tell pregnant women how EASY it
is to allow their birth canals to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%? (See the very
end of this post.)

Why not position the chiropractic profession in the public's mind as being
interested in PREVENTION of vertebral subluxations?

The chiropractic profession is right now missing out on a GOLDEN opportunity
to PREVENT more vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to charge
to adjust by hand.

Prevention of that which DCs charge to adjust seems the ethical thing to do.

Just a thought.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo


PS1 I'll copy former American Chiropractic Association Chairman James
Edwards, DC at

ATTENTION CHIROPRACTIC PHYSICIANS (and other doctors of chiropractic)...

I have not heard back from Mitch Haas, DC involved in the Oregon Public
Health Association and the American Public Health Association...

Mitch (at Western States Chiropractic College/WSCC) has not yet responded to
my posts about the obvious MD vaccination promotion fraud...

See Get flu, get spine adjusted? (also: college vaccination fraud)

Also of possible interest to chiros: Dorland's Illustrated Medical
Dictionary now has
a definition of "vertebral subluxation."

It's a flawed definition, IMO, but how COOL that vertebral subluxation is
now in a major medical dictionary!

"Straight" chiropractic is also now defined in Dorland's - also flawed
IMO...

See Dorland's: Preventing VS by educating OBs (also: New defn of chiro in
Dorland's)

Have you seeen the interesting abstract of a retrospective study of spinal
manipulation by German MDs?

If not...

PS2 EVERYONE should file an online report urging the
FDA to stop OBs from using obstetric tables to close birth canals up to 30%.

Here is my own device adverse report (badly edited by FDA) at the FDA
website...
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/script...FOI__ID=489897

NOTE: ANYONE can urge FDA to warn the public that OBs are using obstetric
tables to close birth canals up to 30%.

One does NOT need to be a health care provider. I am sure FDA would
appreciate hearing from moms.

PS3 PROOF that OBs and CNMwives are routinely closing birth canals up to
30%...

The 30% figure comes from the medical literature...

That semisitting and dorsal close the birth canal is simple biomechanics.
See Gastaldo TD. Letter. Birth 1992;19(4):230.

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:

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...

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%!

Medicine

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!

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.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo
