Fighting Addiction With Chiropractic Care
Louisiana program includes state funding for training costs.
By Editorial Staff
The faith-based subcommittee for BRING (Bringing Regional Initiatives in Greater Acadiana), the regional
workforce development project sponsored by the Lafayette [Louisiana] Workforce Investment Board, is
launching a pilot project in partnership with the American College of Addictionology and Compulsive
Disorders (ACACD) and the state of Louisiana to provide specialized chiropractic care as a means of giving
addicts a drug-free pathway to re-entry into normal life. (Article Excerpt)
From
Bondage to Freedom Holder maintains that any addicted person will have
one or more vertebrae out of alignment. Dr. Jay M. Holder shows why
combining chiropractic, auriculotherapy, amino acids, counseling and
12-step programs may be the groundbreaking answer to all addictions
including alcohol, cocaine, heroin, nicotine, eating disorders, sex
and gambling. (Article excerpt)
Emotions
are not just felt in your head, but in your spine as well.
In a randomized
clinical trial with 98 addicts designed by Robert Duncan, Ph.D.,
biostatistician at the University of Miami School of Medicine, Dr.
Holder found that daily chiropractic adjustments five times a week over
a 30-day period increased the retention rate to 100%. “This is unheard
of; it’s never happened before in addiction treatment,” Dr. Holder
says. At a national average of only $40 per chiropractic adjustment,
this rate of success costs only about $800 per month. Add to this $50
for a one-month’s supply of amino
acids and $240-$400 a month for four addiction counseling
sessions, and you have a total program cost of $1,100 to $1,250.
John’s previously unsuccessful treatment, by comparison, cost his
family $16,000 a month.
