Is There a Conspiacy Between Furniture Makers and Chiropractors?

In a small town in rural America, many years ago, a local chiropractor and furniture maker were out on the town one evening, when the conversation turned to their respective businesses. Both were unhappy with the level of business and income that was coming their way.

They were discussing what could be done to bring in more business, when the chiropractor came up with a "brilliant idea" to increase both of their incomes. Since this conversation occurred back in the days when people had never heard about soft, overstuffed chairs and couches, people sat up properly in straight back chairs and living room furniture.

The chiropractor knew, that as long as people sat properly and slept properly, then their spines would not get out of whack and need him to adjust them. So he talked the furniture maker into coming out with soft, easy, overstuffed chairs and couches. People would buy these because they were more comfortable to relax in after a long days work at their jobs.

The furniture maker went for that idea because he knew people would buy them. So the deal was on. It wasn't long after the furniture maker started making this new type of furniture, when people started having trouble with their backs and needed the chiropractor to adjust them and business started to boom for these men.

Over the years, business expanded enormously for both of them and their industries, and today--job losses and work time that is lost...runs into the millions of hours and the cost to this nation is staggering, added to the pain that all these people go through.

Conclusion: Is this conspiracy story true? No, but the reality of what has happened certainly is. Back pain and other back problems are the first cause of being off from work, causing companies billions of dollars each year in lost man hours and sky rocketing insurance claims.

Back problems are also caused by companies themselves with their work related job functions which cause back pain. The primary one being the chairs employees are required to sit in. I worked in a doctor's office at one time and the chairs that those nurses and office workers had to sit on was nothing short of physical torture. The office manager was required to sit in a chair that was too low and she developed a slipped disk, which caused her to have an operation, which left her a semi-invalid for the rest of her life.

Every person's back problem is unique to them and no treatment would apply to all sufferers, but a lot of people are getting help from the Chi Machine and Hothouse. I personally was 95% healed from a slipped disk, arthritis and stiff SI joint problem that I endured for 25 years after only four months using the Hothouse and Chi Machine. http://www.chi-hothouse.com
