blog_apple.jpgAre you alive or dead?  If you’ve been suffering from a lot of discomfort or a chronic health problem, you may be wondering.  The fact that you’re reading this pretty much assures us that you’re alive, and that’s good news!  All living things possess certain characteristics, such as the ability to assimilate nutrients, adapt to the environment, and the capacity to regenerate and heal.

The power to heal lives within you.

The ability to heal comes from within, and nowhere else.  Suppose you accidentally cut your finger.  You clean it with an antiseptic, dress it with a bandage, wait a couple of weeks and when you take the bandage off, the wound is healed.  What did the healing?  The antiseptic did a good job of reducing or minimizing infection, but it doesn’t possess any healing properties.  The bandage did a good job of keeping out debris and holding the wound closed, but it too doesn’t possess any healing properties.  While the healing process certainly requires time, if you cut the finger of a dead man it won’t heal–ever.  Something even more important than time is needed to heal your cut, your headaches, or any other health problem and that something is the intelligence of the body.  The same intelligence that is responsible for making your heart beat and attending to a million other details that keep you alive is also involved in the healing process.                          

This intelligence works through your brain, spinal cord and all of your nerves to control all of the body’s functions.  The ability of your body to heal as it was designed depends good on brain-to-body or body-to-brain communications.  Poor communication over the nervous system results in diminished health and a slowed healing response.

If you’ve lost your health we can help you find it because we know where to look.  Unlocking your body’s healing potential requires the removal of interference to nerve flow.  As a chiropractor, my goal is to keep your spine well adjusted, removing nervous system interference so your body can work, regenerate, and heal the way it was designed.
