Yeah. You know, one of the things that, I mean, I love chiropractic, but I also, I have like a love-hate relationship with it. And one of the things that frustrates me a lot is like, there's no, there's no like expectation per se, like when you go and see a chiropractor, right? If one chiropractor practices the same technique as 10 others, you can still have 10 different adjustments, 10 different analysis, 10 different methodologies, and then they all stack up. So patients don't know exactly what they're going to get. And the Flying 7 is what I grew up on is just like the wham, bam, thank you, ma'am, collect the insurance money and move out with it. So yeah, I, again, I have like this love-hate relationship. I adjusted my son when he came out and he was stillborn when he came out and I adjusted his atlas and he popped back immediately. And the midwives at the time were, they freaked out. They're like, what did you do? I'm like, I just needed to adjust his atlas. He was a huge baby. Like he came through a tiny hole, like easy. So there's like the power of the adjustment for sure.
