Dr Harte, Marin Chiropractor: Treating Pain With Anti-Depressants?

I've written about this before, but They, the Drug Pushers, are relentless in advertising Cymbalta, an anti-depressant, for chronic pain. Is this usage approved by the FDA? Yes. Is this a guarantee of safety. or efficacy? Absolutely not! Does this make any sense at all? No!

Sure, you could get "depressed" from experiencing serious pain over a long period of time. Who wouldn't be upset at hurting all the time? So, this so-called "depression" is not a disease at all; it is a normal reaction to a problem.

Is depression the cause of your pain? Whose even looking? Who even cares? They just want you hooked on this drug, like forever. Though you may feel a little better (probably only initially, after which you'll be prescribed MORE drugs), the case of your pain is unresolved. This is science? No, it is Medicine.

Chiropractic does not treat pain (even back pain), nor anything else, for that matter. We correct interference to your nervous system functioning properly, Vertebral Subluxation Complex (VSC), allowing your body to heal, to properly regulate itself (that is health). We get to CAUSE. We don't do cover-up.

What makes more sense to you?

PS: No matter what The Doctor told you... arthritis, age, whatever, if you get adjusted, and have less interference to your body working properly, your body will work better.
