Hand Washing With Midwest Family Wellness

Four steps to proper handwashing

• Wet your hands under running water.
• Scrub your hands well with soap. Remember to scrub between your fingers, to wash both the front and back of your hands and clean under your fingernails.
• Washing your hands should take about 15 to 20 seconds - about the time it takes to sing "Happy Birthday".
• Rinse your hands under running water.
• Dry your hands with a clean towel.

Chiropractic & the Spanish Influenza

• Chiropractic care came into its own during the 1918 influenza epidemic as patients were beating the sickness with spinal adjustments.
• During the epidemic, 50 medical doctors in Davenport Iowa treated 4,953 cases with 274 deaths.
• At the same time, 150 chiropractors, students, and faculty of Palmer School of Chiropractic treated 1,635 cases with only 1 death.
• Chiropractors restore the nervous system with their chiropractic adjustments, which directly influence the strength of the immune system.
