1.0 INTRODUCTION The health education program that I have gather information is about Cheragem.

It is the worlds first and No.1 Automatic Thermal Massager with an Internal Projector made of jade that emits Far Infrared Ray (FIR), which massages the vital points of the spine to improve the users overall health and energy level. The thermal massager is basically a combination of oriental medication and alternative treatment which uses Chiropractic. It is a complementary and alternative medicine health care profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on general health. Chiropractors emphasize manual and manipulative therapy for the treatment of vertebral subluxations. Currently, chiropractors practice in over 100 countries in all regions of the world; however chiropractors are most prevalent in North America, Australia and parts of Europe. Chiropractic was founded in 1895 by magnetic healer, D.D. Palmer, in Davenport, Iowa, United States. The Cheragem healthcare is now being exposed to the Malaysian citizens by giving them free trials to use the thermal massager.

2.0 STRENGHT There are few advantages of this chiropractic treatment. The massage provided in the bed provides physical stimulation to the muscles and nerves attained via massage, thus revives the numb nerves and strengthen the internal organs of a person. The optimum natural healing power can be achieved by acupressure on the Chi Points. This can lead to a better and healthier condition in the body. Furthermore, the Moxibustion (Heat Therapy) has been applied into the body Chi Points to heal and prevent diseases for over thousands of years. The chiropractic also can do wonders to relieve muscle pain and stiffness without using any medications at all. A chiropractor will use different strategies to facilitate healing, and the patient does not run the risk of getting addicted to drugs or having complications from surgery. This chiropractic treatment is often used to treat spinal adjustment; any misaligned vertebra will be manually manipulated, and this can result in immediate pain relief. As the adjustment is being done, the pinched nerves and restricted blood flow which contribute to the pain are

also immediately in coordination. The treatment will basically increase the blood circulation in the individuals body. This chiropractic has the concept of natural healing, of the body helping itself to recover from injuries, is proving to be very attractive to people who are tired of taking medications without seeing any tangible results from this symptom-centric style of treatment. Another advantage of chiropractic care is its holistic nature. Unlike traditional therapy which focuses only on a problem area, a chiropractor will look at the other aspects of a persons life, from the other body parts that could be affected, to the persons diet, frequency of exercise, posture, and way of life. An individual will be treated internally and all the problems will be treated through this treatment.

3.0 WEAKNESSES This Ceragem treatment has not reached out to many people. Only certain people know the existence of this treatment. I feel that everyone should try and get the goodness of this treatment which has the concept of natural healing. Besides that, few researches show that there are possible side effects of this chiropractic treatment. Few patients have the continuing pain from a previously treated injury and headache. More severe side effects are unusual and include a herniated disk, compression
of nerves in the lower spinal column (caudal equine syndrome) which causes pain, weakness, bowel problems and stroke.

Third weaknesses of this treatment are that it is not for everyone because patients with osteoporosis or nerve damage may worsen their problems with chiropractic treatment. Individuals who have received spinal surgery require a surgeons approval for the treatment due to potential re-injury. If your back pain is accompanied by chills, sweats, fever or weight loss it may require a medical doctor to diagnose and treat since it might be infection or a tumour. Through this chiropractic treatment some patients experience immediate results. But for some patients, they must come back many times and over the course of several months may experience some moderate relief. Others with back pain may not notice any changes after the

treatment. Different pain situations will result in different levels of effectiveness. Chiropractic treatment is not a sure thing by any means.

4.0 RECOMMENDATION I feel that Ceragem should do more advertisements to allow many people to try out this treatment. This treatment provides many advantages for the patients who have muscle pain, stiffness, joint pain, diabetes, and also improve blood circulation. This treatment works differently for individuals, therefore people have to go for the treatment to experience the changes in their body.

5.0 CONCLUSION Chiropractic care is fast becoming known as the way to treat chronic pain. And with millions of patients cured of their ailments and back to living full and functional lives, its really no wonder why. 6.0 REFERENCES
