Well, I guess the best way to put this is chiropractors, you know, just like MDs, we have a little bit broader let’s say, type of expanse. We go to multiple seminars and we try each one out and we kind of take the stuff that works on the cross-section of patients that we normally see. And so, we have a little bit here, a little bit there, and therefore each one of us kind of end up with our own type of technique.
And each of us kind of just discovers something that nobody taught us. That’s kind of what I’ve done. But I went to the, let’s say, the expense and the effort to figure out scientifically why each part of what I do works so that I can explain it to other professionals and other patients.
And therefore, I’m a historian because when you’re looking to find out scientifically why it worked, you’re looking at the history of what a lot of other people went to the trouble to find out, but maybe it’s just a little piece of information here, a little piece of information there. And normally what I show chiropractors, okay, here’s what you learned in college, just as something that’s going to help you pass a board, but that’s kind of all it was to you.
Here’s how you use it in practicality to get very good, very quick responses. And when it comes to nutrition, I have stuff back from the 1800s, early in the 1800s, that’s been known that people just aren’t aware of. And for several years, I bought an average of about $1,000 a month worth of textbooks and technical papers and research papers, read them cover to cover, and basically I’d pick out stuff that I didn’t know on. I just figured, hey, if you pile drive it in there, your subconscious mind is going to start throwing answers out at you when you come up on something. Then you make something of it.
And that’s, and so when I put these courses together, like the first course I ever did, my wife said, where are you going to start teaching this stuff, more frequently? And I said, yeah. So, I wrote out about 94 pages of seminar material in a day. I typed it out. And I knew where it was in my technical books and research books and, stuff like that. So, I just went and photocopied that and I put it together and sent out mailings.
And so that’s literally how I started the first series of seminars. Then they said, well, what do you have on this? And so I said, oh, yeah, I have that. So I put a second seminar together and it was about the same thing. Then they said, well, what about this? Hey, you’re right. So I put another one together and then another, then another. So
