Straight To Health Podcast
What if your feet are causing your back pain?
Dr. Mark Charette shares his journey from swimming scholarship recipient to becoming a world-renowned chiropractic educator who has trained over 100,000 chiropractors in whole body adjustment techniques.
• Dr. Charette developed "whole body adjusting" protocols after collaborating with German biomechanics experts in the 1990s
• His approach treats feet, knees, hips, wrists, elbows, shoulders, ribs, and the jaw, not just the spine
• Research identified seven specific foot misalignments that affect the entire body through both mechanical and neurological pathways
• Dr. Charette focuses on indicators rather than symptoms, often finding that asymptomatic extremities cause pain elsewhere
• "Repetition is the engine of learning" - mastering adjustment techniques requires approximately 1,000 repetitions
• The key lesson: "Some will, some won't, so what, who's next?" - focus on helping those you can rather than dwelling on those you can't
• Modern chiropractic has evolved to be included in military facilities, VA hospitals, and multidisciplinary clinics
• Dr. Charette's three essentials: understand the nervous system controls everything, get regular adjustments, and pay attention to posture
