{"product_id":"born-broken-matt-rushford-9781512356182","title":"Born Broken: De-Pathologizing the Human Condition","description":"\"The first step in the solution to our health care crisis is not political or fiscal. It involves a grass roots decision to resolutely dissolve the marriage of medicine and health, and to make a new commitment to an ever-deepening relationship between ourselves and the innate capacity within each of us to heal, grow and thrive...\" Born Broken is a groundbreaking work that exposes the unspoken paradigm of a health care system that is built around a flawed and narrow view of the human body and living systems. From pregnancy and childbirth to barefoot running and sprained ankles, Dr. Matt Rushford takes us on a fascinating journey across time and deep within our bodies to uncover hidden wisdom, ancient misconceptions, and a newly evolving approach to health and health care that is based on a recognition and alliance with the amazing power of the body to heal. Dr. Matt Rushford draws from his 25 years of experience as a family and pediatric chiropractor and 15 years as an instructor of anatomy \u0026amp; physiology and uses his unique wit and insight to give readers a fresh perspective on their own bodies and the miraculous intelligence that we so easily take for granted. Born Broken explores: - The limitations of western allopathic medicine in the maintenance and enhancement of health - The multidimensional nature of wellness and the need for a multidimensional approach to wellbeing. - The hidden wisdom of our bodies with respect to: o Pregnancy o Birth o Being \"sick\" with fever, diarrhea, inflammation o \"Expendable\" body parts like the appendix, tonsils and foreskin Fastidiously documented with scientific data, Born Broken is a course correction in the runaway world of Pathologization- reframing the normal as abnormal- as an inevitable by-product of the shotgun marriage of medicine and health care. Entertaining, enlightening and empowering, it will change the way you see your body and your life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matt Rushford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1512356182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781512356182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Matt Rushford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068237574399,"sku":"9781512356182","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e5136f4-a51a-4177-9cde-5a0421b466af.jpg?v=1685417840","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/born-broken-matt-rushford-9781512356182","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
