Dr. Nell Williams, wife of Dr. Sid Williams, founder of Life College of Chiropractic, recalls her time at the Palmer School of Chiropractic. She talks about her time with BJ Palmer and the miraculous case of a student with blood poisoning who got well with Chiropractic adjustments alone.
We discuss how a subluxation can cause abnormal function of various body systems, including thermolysis, nutrition and reproduction.
When a subluxation affects nerve flow to an organ, Innate will attempt to compensate by recruiting another organ in an attempt to maintain homeostasis. This recruited organ will appear diseased but is in fact doing what Innate intends. For this reason, it’s important to use objective indicators for subluxation rather than adjust based on symptoms.

In today’s episode, we contrast the difference between minus and excess function. If a subluxation decreases quantity nerve flow to tissue cells, how can excess function of tissue cells occur?
In today’s episode we discuss such Innate cellular functions as secretory, elimination and thermolysis.
Why is normal function the foundation upon which Chiropractic was discovered and developed?
This Relationship Between Innate Intelligence and Tissue Cells Is The Foundation Upon Which Health Is Restored And Maintained.
BJ Palmer developed and used this analysis to locate subluxations with greater accuracy than palpation alone could offer.

Larry Allen, DC retells his experiences as a student of Palmer School of Chiropractic during the 1930’s.
Is a technique Chiropractic if it does not address vertebral subluxation? We continue as BJ debunks this technique.
The Developer of Chiropractic had tested every technique at its efficiency in getting sick people well. What did BJ’s research have to say about the predecessor of Logan Basic technique?
What were the three factors that BJ focused upon when practicing and training his skill at adjusting subluxation?
Innate Intelligence is the life force within the human body. Can this life force be measured using scientific instrumentation?
Every profession has the principles upon which it practices. What are the principles of chiropractic and how do you apply them into your practice?
Have you ever wondered exactly how BJ Palmer practiced chiropractic in his clinic? What procedures and protocols were developed to increase the percentage of sick people getting well?
How can a chiropractor develop their adjusting skills by using instrumentation pattern analysis?
What happened in 1924 that caused the chiropractic profession and Palmer faculty to turn their backs on BJ Palmer?
How can checking a patient with instrumentation during the same time of day increase a chiropractor’s results for that patient? Subluxation heat: where does it originate?
In getting sick people well is it enough to use instrumentation, x-ray and specific adjustments or is there another factor? Can adjusting patients under anesthesia help in certain cases?
Pattern analysis became the gold-standard for determining the presence of subluxation. It was the smelter which separated Chiropractic theory from fact. What resulted was the ability for chiropractors to accept cases with more serious health conditions and the confidence in getting them well.
Did you know that BJ Palmer developed over 200 full spine adjusting techniques? After 35 years of exhaustive research, he developed adjusting technique 206 “The Specific”. This technique was the most efficient at locating the subluxation and keeping the pressure out for the longest span of time.
We continue to follow BJ Palmer thru the developments that were made in Chiropractic. From cord tension to the $150,000 adjustment, the practice of the Art went though many phases in order to reach its constant Principle.
We take the chiropractor back through the early years of developing Chiropractic principles and practices. Did you know that most full spoke techniques today are based on a technique that BJ developed in 1906?
The Chiropractic Principle that subluxation is the cause of dis-ease has always been 100% correct. The Chiropractic Practice of locating and adjusting subluxation took many decades before developing into the Specific system.
Dr. Lyle Sherman adjusts a patient with chronic history of uterine tumors. While medical doctors advised on more surgeries, Dr. Sherman held with confidence that when the “pressure was released”, that the tumors would go away.
Drs. Palmer and Sherman accept their latest complex case of a 5 year old boy diagnosed with seizure disorder. After failed attempts from medical doctors and local chiropractor, what hope can be expected?
A three month old baby boy diagnosed with hydrocephalus was told by medical doctors that there was no hope. The parents were told to expect the baby to fall asleep and just never wake up. Was this case too far gone or was there still hope?
BJ Palmer demonstrates the efficiency of Specific Chiropractic in helping a patient diagnosed with encephalitis, thought to have been caused by a viral infection. Symptoms included weakness, loss of vision and speech, lethargy and going into a coma. What results did BJ get with this case?
Can Specific Chiropractic helps people who suffer from neurodegenerative conditions? We join BJ Palmer on the adjusting floor as he demonstrates the efficiency of Specific Chiropractic in helping a patient with multiple sclerosis.
Can an upper cervical subluxation cause epilepsy grand mal seizures? What results can we expect using Specific Chiropractic? Can an Atlas or Axis subluxation listing change?
How can a Specific Chiropractor help a patient who is suffering from low back and sciatica without every adjusting the lumbar spine? Could the causative subluxation be found in the upper cervical area?
We join BJ Palmer in the adjusting room of the BJ Palmer Chiropractic Clinic. This exceptional case demonstrated that even cancer can be caused by a vertebral subluxation. What more, we are shown how one specific adjustment restored life and reversed cancer in six weeks.
BJ has developed Chiropractic into a science. Gone are the days of guessing where, when or how to adjust. Patient results become expected rather than hoped. Now imagine BJ’s frustrations when having to refer patients to local chiropractors who were still guessing with older techniques that failed.
BJ’s research developed the science of subluxation detection and its correction well beyond previous conceptions. From many adjustments, to one. From many vertebrae, to one. According to research, which was “the one” and what made it so unique?
How does a vertebral subluxation affecting the sex organs cause a condition called “sex insanity”? Should people pronounced dead be checked for electrical activity prior to embalming? What happened when BJ adjusted a dislocation of the 6th cervical?
If you liked it, then you should have put a meter on it! BJ continues to filter through Chiropractic techniques, natural modalities and medicines, all to determine which restores Innate mental impulse supply to the body. All tested against the ‘Timpograph.
With the invention of the EEG, medical research from the 1930’s and 40’s isolated over 700 diseases caused by nerve interference. While medical men were left puzzled as to the cause of nerve interference, BJ Palmer’s research confirmed it to be a vertebral subluxation.
BJ has established the gold standard of subluxation detection, using the ‘Timpograph. The next phase of research was to develop an adjustment technique that would provide the best results in restoring electrical energy between the brain and body. After testing all Chiropractic techniques, which one did the ‘Timpograph determine was the most efficient?
Out of the five components of a vertebral subluxation, which one was shown to be the most sensitive? According to BJ’s scientific research, what instrument was considered the gold standard, also proving the most effective Chiropractic technique?
We continue BJ’s research into the ‘Timpograph by eliminating variables and establishing ourselves closer to the constant we desire: vertebral subluxation. Did you know that sound and sight affect a subluxation graph pattern?
We continue in the development of the ‘Timpograph Chiropractic instrument and describe the details of eliminating all the variables that came with this new work.
What is the most sensitive and specific test to determine the presence of a vertebral subluxation? Tune-in to find out what Chiropractic instrument BJ valued more than the Neurocalometer.
What are the four invasionary forces that penetrate the skin and affect an accurate neurocalometer graph? How did BJ eliminate these variables?
Can Chiropractors measure Innate Intelligence within mankind? BJ invested $50,000 (over $900k in 2020 dollar value) to determine this question. The answer proved the theory of Chiropractic and scientifically elevated the profession.
BJ exposes the fallacies of the medical principle and practices that fail to get sick people well. He discusses the struggle he had with chiropractors in advancing the science of Chiropractic.
In this episode we introduce BJ Palmer’s latest Chiropractic instrument. The ElectroEncephaloNeuroMenTimpoGraph measured the amount of nerve force that was being transmitted along nerves.
In this commemorative episode, we celebrate the birthday of BJ Palmer by reading from an interview. Dr. Fred Barge gives us amazing insights into the Developer of Chiropractic.
The Spinograph and Neurocalometer have withstood the test of time, proving scientifically to do what they were intended to do. BJ and his team undertook to debunking some of the popular medical gadgets of the time that were distracting Chiropractors from Chiropractic.
We conclude Dr. Speransky’s research into the nervous system as being the causal source for the pathological process. His ground-breaking studies have cast shadows of doubt on the previous medical theory that microbes cause disease.
We continue in our fourth episode reading from Dr. Speransky’s work on infectious diseases and the nervous system.
Pathogenic microbes, inflammation and disease. Does the nervous system control this entire process?
BJ introduces us to Dr. Speranksky’s research: the role of the nervous system in pathogenesis.
We conclude Dr. George Crile’s research by highlighting some important principles and concepts that might give us a better understanding of Chiropractic.
The final episode concluding Dr. Crile’s research on human energy, as quoted by BJ Palmer.
BJ provides references to the leading medical authorities of his time in regards to their understanding of human energy. BJ covers Dr. Crile’s thesis: A Bipolar Theory of Living Processes.
BJ defends his theory of direct brain cell to tissue cell nerve fiber continuity against the prevalent medical model.
In this episode we are going to discuss human energy, the soul, Innate Intelligence. How does human energy animate the human body to life?
Learn more about BJ’s most controversial research project. Did the spinal cord fill up the space of the neural canal in life? The only way to know was to dissect a living body within 5 minutes of death.
After failed attempts to find a team of doctors in the States that could secure a body within moments of death, BJ traveled to the only country in the world that would permit such research: Nazi Germany
BJ takes us to Dresden, Germany where he begins research on his most groundbreaking project: the Wet Specimen. A dead body was secured within minutes of death. Occiput, atlas, axis and spinal cord removed to determine actual size in life. This would either prove or disprove the Specific Chiropractic principle and practice and elevate the profession into the realm of objective science.
The Science of Chiropractic is developed by furthering x-ray technique. BJ also demonstrates how an upper cervical subluxation causes the entire spinal column to compensate.
We continue to follow BJ in the research clinic, learning the importance of the Neurocalograph and the four most common responses a patient experienced following the initial upper cervical adjustment. We also cover the the purpose BJ incorporated a medical lab into the research clinic.
Dr. Plesa introduces himself and shares his passion for the Chiropractic Green Books. This first episode concludes with a reading of the Foreward from Volume 25.
In this episode, we establish the foundation upon which the BJ Palmer Research Clinic was built upon. We discuss the advent of the Neurocalograph and the Neurotempometer.
