Dr. Lewis Coleman’s book, 50 Years Lost in Medical Science, explores how medical advancements were sidetracked by the false belief that genes are the primary cause of disease. In reality, 95% of diseases are driven by an overloaded nervous system, not genetics. Stress enters the nervous system through receptors, triggering hormonal and capillary reactions that lead to cellular dysfunction.
This idea was first recognized by D.D. Palmer in 1895, who identified the nervous system as the master system and outlined three primary stressors: chemical, structural, and emotional. Chronic stress raises the body’s baseline stress levels, similar to a car engine idling too high, leading to health issues over time.
Our approach focuses on measuring and reducing this allostatic stress load through physical care, which is essential for restoring health. Supplements and medications alone cannot replace the need for direct nervous system interventions. By addressing the root cause—nervous system overload—we help patients achieve real improvements in their health.
