Family Care – How Natural Therapy Can Help

Natural therapy has been a great help to families for years. Chiropractic, massage, exercise and good nutrition can help you and your family attain superior health.

Many patients see me as their family doctor. Making natural therapy a main part of your life is wise. The cost of health insurance and health care continues to rise. The cost of drugs, surgery and other medical procedures has become overwhelming for many. The adverse reactions to drugs is well known and has been making front-page news more and more lately.

Families want safe and natural solutions. More and more people are choosing natural therapy first. It’s a wise choice.

Family care at our office can start at the very beginning. Pregnant mothers and their babies can greatly benefit from our care. During this period of weight gain and hormonal changes, many mother’s become very uncomfortable. We can help by greatly reducing the stress and body pains common at this time. We specialize in natural care for pregnant moms – using gentle chiropractic adjustments and massage. Many of our patients have even reported easier births.

I’ve been able to provide natural care for my wife, Laura, through four pregnancies. And we’ve been blessed with four natural and healthy births… and four healthy and energetic kids.

Newborns, infants, and children can also benefit from natural therapy. The birth process can be a source of physical stress on both mom and baby. This can be the cause of our first subluxation (a spinal bone misalignment that causes nervous system interference). As children grow they learn to walk, run, jump, climb stairs, and ride bikes. In my very own home, I’ve seen some of the craziest things our kids do. They can be extremely creative… sometimes dangerously creative! Jumping over towers of pillows, bouncing off the couch and slamming off a chair and bouncing onto the floor. What fun!

All of these activities can cause physical damage and pain… sometimes called growing pains. If ignored, these problems usually worsen and become more permanent. Correcting the problems while still relatively new is wise. I’ve been adjusting my kids spines since they were born, and they enjoy it.

After a patient’s initial exam and I explain everything that I’ve found, I’m often asked, “How could this have happened? What caused it?”

My usual answer… “Life.”

Life is tough. We are frequently getting “beat up” in life. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. Car accidents, work injuries, and the stress and strains of our busy lives can produce all sorts of physical problems. The neuromusculoskeletal (nerve, muscle and bone) system is our first line of defense and bears most of the stress. Periodic checkups at our office can be very helpful to maintain superior health. Many of our patients report more energy, less pain, more vitality and better overall health.

We also welcome seniors in our practice. Seniors want to enjoy their retirement and want superior health. Natural therapy just makes sense. As you age, your body can need a great deal of attention. We provide gentle and relaxing care that is safe for people of all ages.

Regardless of your age or current health condition, just remember… it’s never too late to begin to pursue superior health. The natural therapy we provide is good for your health.

As you personally benefit from natural therapy, you have some new responsibilities. Among them is to tell others about your experience. Why not start with the ones you love?
