The writer was interviewing him and asking about what a chiropractor does.  She indicated that she felt that the chiropractic adjustment was, \u201cmagical.\u201d  Dr. Lamar was quick to say that he wouldn&#8217;t characterize it as magic, but he said, \u201cI knew what she meant.\u201d  While she was expressing the adjustment as a transcendent phenomenon,  Dr. Lamar explained it more scientifically as a clinical event with identifiable measures and a predictable outcome.  He said that the magic did not happen in the hands of the chiropractor, but in the body of the person receiving the adjustment.  Dr. Lamar was so spot-on correct that the little voice within me was silently cheering him on.<br \/>\nI\u2019ve often thought about how people report over and over again that after they get a precise adjustment it seems just like magic.  Yes, they and I both know that there is no magic involved <em>in performing an adjustment<\/em>, but a live body does miraculous, even magical things when it is working right.  In other words, <strong>\u2018Life is Magic.\u2019<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you might like to hear some of this interesting discussion then please click on this link <a href=\"http:\/\/spinalcolumnradio.com\/2013\/11\/01\/episode-169-bj-palmer-epigrams\">http:\/\/spinalcolumnradio.com\/2013\/11\/01\/episode-169-bj-palmer-epigrams<\/a>\/ go down the page some and click on, &#8220;Listen Now.&#8221;  Then fast forward to 48 minutes and 30 seconds into the show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was just listening to an internet radio show called, \u201cSpinal Column Radio.\u201d The show is hosted by Dr. Thomas Lamar and can be heard at, http:\/\/spinalcolumnradio.com\/2013\/11\/01\/episode-169-bj-palmer-epigrams\/ I was being interviewed on this show a couple of weeks ago and &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/2013\/11\/11\/life-is-magic\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[28,31,100,101,99,102],"class_list":["post-844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-adjustments","tag-chiropractic","tag-dd-palmer","tag-dr-thomas-lamar","tag-magic","tag-spinal-column-radio"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=844"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":862,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/844\/revisions\/862"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youneedchiro.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
