– Martha Nessler, DC, Innate Expressions

“When developing a seminar for our high achievers on the history and tradition of chiropractic, I wanted to offer our participants the very best information, presented with authority and credibility, and called upon Dr. Simon Senzon to be our key speaker. His knowledge and perspective on the Palmers and the heritage of our profession was inspiring, and his grounding in “things natural” made his words come alive with innate consciousness. Though he is already well-known and respected in academic circles, Dr. Senzon is a best kept secret in chiropractic, and when his work comes to the awareness of the field doctor, it will re-balance and re-prioritize the foundations of chiropractic in the minds and hearts of chiropractors, for the betterment of the people we serve.”
– Dennis Perman DC, co-founder of The Masters Circle

Endorsements for Dr. Senzon’s first book:

“‘The Spiritual Writings of B.J. Palmer gave me fresh insights into the life of this remarkable man. More significantly, it shows how big an idea chiropractic is. An added treat is the collection of photographs contained in the book. I’m sure you will enjoy it.”
– Dr. Christopher Kent, DC, Co-founder, Chiropractic Leadership Alliance

“The philosophy of chiropractic is in need of scholarly examination, explication and development. Simon Senzon brings to BJ Palmer’s writings a love of chiropractic and a commitment to its essential principles, as well as a lively analysis informed by wide study in the discipline of philosophy. This book makes BJ Palmer’s spiritual writings more accessible to the average reader and also provides astute commentary. I am pleased to have such a resource for use in educating the chiropractors of the future; it is
time that the chiropractic scholarly community get on with the intellectual work required to grow our philosophy. Thanks for taking on the challenge, Simon.”
– Ashley Cleveland, DC, PhD, instructor, Cleveland Chiropractic College

“This book provides an incredible glimpse into B.J.’s mind and soul. By understanding him better, we understand his vision of chiropractic better as well.”
–Terry A. Rondberg, DC, President of the World Chiropractic Alliance

“Dr. Senzon’s book is timely, considering the move in health care towards addressing spiritual issues and mind/body medicine. There are few books that explore these topics for our profession to look to, so his book is must reading for chiropractic students, faculty and practitioners.”
– Matthew McCoy, DC, editor, Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research.

“Simon’s book is absolutely essential for any DC who loves chiropractic; it gives you the meat of BJ without all the tedious repetition. It’s a must-have book.”
– Michael S. McLean, DC, International Chiropractors Association

“Simon beautifully depicts BJ’s search for spiritual truth and wisdom. He outlines his spiritual growth and development and how this process influenced its impact into the chiropractic philosophy and practice. This work allows us a window into the mind of this eccentric icon of chiropractic and challenges us to find our own spiritual connection to our practice. It is a must read for every chiropractor. It is one of the most significant works in historic and philosophical development of our profession.”
– Peter Kevorkian, DC and Patti Giuliano, DC, Maine Chiropractic Assoc.

“Dr. Senzon has written the first serious analysis of B. J.’s writings from a spiritual perspective. Senzon puts his Masters in philosophy and doctoral work to good use in taking a deep, rigorous look at the metaphysical side of B. J.’s work. Students of B. J. and of chiropractic history will enjoy the way Senzon has gathered relevant quotes together in a coherent form. Those interested in scholarly analysis of the philosophy of chiropractic will get great value from Senzon’s insightful commentaries at the end of the book. A “must read” for students of the philosophy of chiropractic, and in my opinion the definitive treatment of the spiritual side of chiropractic philosophy.”
– Brian McAulay, DC, PhD, Provost and Vice-president, Life University

“I found this book to be very enjoyable and learned about a spiritual side of BJ Palmer which was previously unknown to me… I believe that chiropractors and students of chiropractic would benefit from reading this book due to the fact that the text will provide for them a source of inspiration along with a better understanding of what chiropractic has to offer human beings from both a biological and spiritual perspective.”
- John Reizer, DC, a 1986 magna cum laude graduate of Sherman College and author of the books Chiropractic Made Simple and Up And Running: Opening A Chiropractic Office.

“The Spiritual Writings of B. J. Palmer by Dr. Simon Senzon, represents a wonderful distillation of the body of B. J. Palmer’s work that deals with spiritual issues and his unique views of the cosmology of man. I view these writings as a valuable part of chiropractic’s history and heritage and DC’s have much to benefit by these ideas. Whether you agree with B. J. or not; whether you like B. J. or not, this book is a must-have addition to the chiropractor’s library.”
- Tom Klapp, DC, past-president of the Congress of Chiropractic State Associations, chairman of the Michigan Association of Chiropractors

“It is rare that we are given the opportunity to follow any person’s spiritual voyage into the mystical realms of saints and healers. B.J. Palmer, however, shared this remarkable journey with us through 8,000 pages of writings between 1949 and 1961. Simon Senzon has done the work of making these easily accessible by sifting through the great mass of work and lifting out the gems of wisdom that are the markers of Palmer’s extraordinary passage. Thank you Dr. Senzon!”
- Allan Combs, PhD, author of “The Radiance of Being,” and “Synchronicity.”
