Edmonton Chiropractor : Dr. Randolph Swanston
I had a deep inner belief that drugs do not heal people.
And that healing came from within. In 1975, I was a teacher in Jasper, Canada. I knew very little about Chiropractic. I traveled to Hinton, the nearest town, Hinton, to meet Dr. Miller, a Chiropractor. He explained the principles of Chiropractic to me, and lent me a book by Chester Wilk, which documented case after case of people with severe illnesses, who were sent home to die. They got Chiropractic care, and regained their vibrant health. That visit cemented my decision to become a Chiropractor.
My Education
I attended Canadian Chiropractic Memorial College, after receiving B.Sc and a B.Ed degrees, and having a brief stint as a teacher. I was most impressed by a professor. Dr. Herb. Lee. He was elderly, and a strong inspiration to young doctors. It was reported that he was teaching till he was 90 years old. I think he is 100 years old now, and I think still doing quite well.
I believe that all healing comes from inside.
I believe that drugs do not heal, and the main purpose of doctors is to facilitate the flow of natural healing energy in the body. I believe in the original concept of Chiropractic, where Harvey Lillard got an adjustment, and had his hearing restored. I have seen thousands of "organic" conditions healed using Chiropractic. My training and my practice have been focused on empowering the body to heal itself.
In our practice, I find that conditions that respond best to what we do include:
- Allergies
- Asthma
- Blood Pressure
- Blood Sugar
- Degenerative Diseases
- Insomnia
- Infections
- Emotional Stress
- Fatigue
- Weakened Immune System
- Hearing and Vision Problems
- Colic
- Digestive Problems
- Respiratory Problems
- Restlessness
- Skin Problems
- Cardio-vascular
- Fertility Problems
- And countless other problems including:
- Back Pain
- Headaches
These are the two conditions for which it is best known.
As an example of the wide range of effectiveness of Chiropractic, I treat more people for allergies and infections than for anything else. And we regularly see relief of the other listed conditions.
Some patients receive great hope after being rejected by medical institutions, and sent home to die. Then they get Chiropractic care, and return to health.
Health Principle
My basic health principle is to support the body, nurture it, and give it what it needs. It will use the forces of nature to heal itself and throw off disease.
Dr. Swanston, Personally
I am forever grateful to God for richly blessing me, and giving me the opportunity to serve and bless others. I have joy every day, no matter what happens, because I know I am covered.
I have four children and I am proud of all of them. Two are in Chiropractic, one is in Psychology, and the other is in Real Estate and investments.
My main passions are singing Gospel Quartet and flying aircraft. I have achieved a multi-engine and instrument rating and a commercial pilot's license. I also love public speaking, marketing, and studying with the masters in any field I have an interest.
Above all, I love traveling to the tropics, and enjoying the pleasures of the islands: The ocean, the beach, the sand, the tropical fruit, the music, and the local people.
My Health and Exercise
Fortunately I have a close friend who is an excellent Chiropractor, and I get my Chiropractic adjustments regularly. I love walking and running. In the winter months, I usually limit myself to the T Zone vibration machine and the treadmill. I also do floor exercises. I am personally against vaccinating my family. I educate my friends about the content of vaccinations. I avoid drugs, legal or illegal. I consider them toxic chemicals which lower the body's immunity, and add burdens to the body's work load.
Enough about me! Let me help you with today’s safe, painless and natural Chiropractic care. Give us a call so we can help you take your first step towards better health.
