Chiropractic health care combines aspects of philosophy and art with hard science in order to tap into the body’s own inherent recuperative powers. It is a holistic approach to wellness that focuses of the relationship between the brain, body and spinal cord – which all things considered, makes a great deal of sense, considering that the spinal cord represents the all-important connection between the brain and the various organs and parts of the body.

There is a great deal of misinformation about chiropractic that portrays it as a “pseudo-science.” This, for the most part is propaganda from the large pharmaceutical corporations who every year, spend billions of dollars to make sure that Congress and the Administration continues to block access to health care for all but the most wealthy or fortunate Americans – health care that is recognized as a citizen’s right by every other industrialized nation – while ensuring that those who do have access to the health care system pay exorbitant fees that go to the inflated salaries of the CEOs of Big Pharma and the insurance companies, stockholder dividends to those of the investor class who produce nothing, and the maintenance of private luxury jets and other expensive “perks.” 

Chiropractic is a “conservative” approach to health care, meaning that it does not utilize drugs or surgery – hence, the attacks on it by large, for-profit insurance and pharmaceutical corporate interests. It is a science that was born of trial-and-error in the early part of the last century. Prospective patients of Advanced Family Chiropractic can learn about the history of chiropractic and much more at their home on the Wide World Web.

Advanced Family Chiropractic is located in Bridgeview, Illinois, just southwest of Chicago. Patients coming to Dr. Shalabi for the first time do not typically receive treatment; the initial appointment is used to evaluate the patient’s health history, a comprehensive physical exam and x-rays. Dr. Shalabi then advises patients on how to minimize their pain over the course of the next 24 – 48 hours while he studies the case history and the x-rays in order to determine the appropriate course of treatment, tailored to the individual needs of the patient.

Symptoms that are most often treated by chiropractic include back, shoulder, limb, hip and neck pain, headaches, stiffness, arthritis, numbness, and chronically cold hands and feet. A member of the Illinois Chiropractic Society, Dr. Mohamed Shalabi is a graduate of the Life University School of Chiropractic. In addition to his practice, he maintains an active schedule of public lectures on health-related topics. His patients range from newborns to centenarians, and everyone in between.

Dr. Shalabi’s home on the World Wide Web contains a very impressive database of information on virtually everything related to chiropractic care, including the history of chiropractic and complete explanation of subluxation – a condition in which vertebrae become misaligned and interfere with communication between brain and body. It is important to understand that chiropractic doctors are the only physicians trained and qualified to treat this specific condition, so those experiencing aches and pains that has no apparent explanation may very well benefit from a visit to a chiropractor prior to scheduling an appointment with a high-priced specialist.
