Ohio investigates provider who offers to reach into past to heal patients

COLUMBUS, Ohio - A chiropractor who claims he can treat anyone by reaching back in time to when an injury occurred has attracted the attention of state regulators.

The Ohio State Chiropractic Board, in a notice of hearing, has accused James Burda of Athens of being "unable to practice chiropractic according to acceptable and prevailing standards of care due to mental illness, specifically, Delusional Disorder, Grandiose Type."

Burda denied that he is mentally ill. He said he possesses a skill he discovered by accident while driving six years ago.

"My foot hurt and, knowing anatomy, I went ahead and I told it to realign and my pain went away," Burda said Thursday.

Burda calls his treatment "Bahlaqeem."

"It is a made-up word and, to my knowledge, has no known meaning except for this intended purpose. It does, however, have a soothing vibrational influence and contains the very special number of nine letters," Burda's Web site says.

Burda calls his treatment "Bahlaqeem."

Does anyone have insurance that covers this?

He needs to team up with the Butt doctor and start a practice.

Awesome. Next time he goes back in time, I have a spare $1,000 dollars I think I can scrape up for him to invest in Microsoft's IPO.

Burda denies he is mentally ill.

That is what they _always_ say _before_ they talk to their attorneys. :-)

HAHAHAHA.... If he has this "power" to "reach" back in time and heal sickness, is the oppisite true. Can he "reach" back in time and cause sickness? If so how about we ask him to prove it by giving Saddam a nice grapefruit sized brain tumor back in the 80's?? This guy is a quack and probably thinks he's god or god-like, they need to lock him up in the puzzle factory and throw away the key.

Well, he seems perfectly rational to me.

It is sad, he's insane. And probably nobody will be able to help him.

Just like "Psychosis," "Psychotic" and Psychoboy."

My guess is this guy will be on Art Bell. I cannot believe people listen to and believe his show.

This idea is no less crazy than chiro in general.

D.D. Palmer claimed he cured a man's deafness by cracking his back, which is what started this whole scam. What's the difference?

I have another word for Burda. It's "bullsh-t". It's not nine words but it does have just one meaning, and he's full of it.

This guy is an embarrasement. Every license he has should be pulled, including his driver's license.

What are you talking about? Art Bell's show is the funniest thing on radio.

The kooks seem to line up to see who is the craziest. The best ones use a grand theory where they tie-in the Illuminati, Area-51, Ramtha, and time travel.
