Five Reasons People Consult Our Practice:
Everyone, regardless of age or condition, can benefit from a nervous system that is working at its very best.
Obvious Spinal Problem
Most people associate chiropractic care with headaches, neck and back problems. Our interest in the spine is because it Read more »
Antibiotics and Childhood IBD
Antibiotics are medications that fight bacterial infections. That means if your medical doctor ever prescribes an antibiotic to fight your child’s cold, flu, cough (in most cases) sore throat (unless strep) and even bronchitis – all of which are caused by viruses – Read more »
Brain-to-Stomach—Stomach-to-Brain
In the golden days of the telegraph, lacking punctuation marks, the word STOP was often used to indicate the end of each sentence. You’ll hear something similar when those using a two-way radio end each transmission with the word, “OVER.”
That’s because these technologies lack the ability to carry on simultaneous two-way communications, unlike the brain-to-body communications of our nervous system.
Controlling and regulating nerve impulses leave your brain, travel down your spinal cord to pairs of nerve roots exiting from between each pair of spinal bones and out to every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. Simultaneously, messages from the body are constantly sent back to the brain. Even the slightest distortion or disturbance of these vital messages to or from the brain can produce malfunctioning organs or tissues.
This is why a stomach problem may not be a stomach problem! Instead, it might be a brain-to-stomach or stomach-to-brain communication problem.
That’s why chiropractic works so well. We look for nervous system disturbances (usually from the moving bones of the spine) that are interfering with the proper expression of your body. Locating and reducing these communication impairments with safe and natural chiropractic care help restore proper function and good health.

Flu Season and Your Vitamin D Levels
Another influenza season is beginning, and the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will strongly urge Americans to get a flu shot. The CDC always has a well-orchestrated campaign each season to generate interest and demand for flu shots. Read more »

Vaccination: Do You Have A Choice?
Vaccination is a scary word. There is so much to learn about it. My family was increased almost two years ago and I decided that it was my duty as a parent and physician to educate myself as to whether or not to vaccinate my children. It doesn’t matter which side you look at, both are going to have valid points. My advice to you is to research both sides and make an educated decision before going into the doctor for your child’s check ups. Read more »
Victim of Stress?
Stress comes in many forms. We are all going to have stress in our lives. Some are going to have more stress than others. It is not the stress in our lives that causes problems, it is the way we deal with or handle the stress that will cause problems. People diagnosed with cancer have many times had a major stressor in their life prior to their diagnosis. This is obviously a worse case scenario. I see practice members (patients) in my office daily experiencing stress. I have noticed that those who respond properly to the stress instead of suppressing it have a much higher health potential.

Enjoy Life and Live Longer
Science has proven laughter to be a safe, effective means to feel better. It can also possibly help you live longer. I had a friend whose mom would rent funny movies for him when he was sick. I thought his mom was silly by rewarding him to be sick. His mom knew however, that he would recover quicker if he were to laugh more. Read more »
