What’s the difference between health care and sick care?

The terms “healthcare” and “wellness” have lost their original meaning in our society.

The underlying message is that medicine saves lives, as seen on our television show dramas as the heroic lifesaving that happens in hospitals.

Yes it does. But that’s not true health care.

What’s missing from these shows is the fact that the system is broken, burdened by expensive medical procedures, dangerous drug and surgical interventions, all delivered in times of crisis.  

Medicine aims to diagnose and treat symptoms and diseases, often caused by neglect and poor lifestyle choices.  That’s sick care. None of this cures you.  

Real health care is doing things that support and take care of your body to feel good, strong, vibrant, energetic, and fully alive. Diet, exercise, movement, sleep, mental clarity, meditation, and chiropractic care are all integral parts to natural health and wellbeing. 

Chiropractic adjustments on a regular basis help you express Life, health and be more connected to the wisdom and power within you, allowing your body to self heal.

The life power of innate intelligence within us is unbelievably amazing! It’s constantly at work running our bodies.  Life force is energy in motion, directed through the mental impulse and travels throughout the brain, nerves, tissues and cells. 

We are connected to Life’s wisdom and intelligence. Chiropractic enhances this connection by releasing interference to the power of life in you. You live clearer and more aligned to your life force power. Everyone needs this.

I believe the world and people are better with chiropractic, and a clear system to express life and their God-given potential.

Come get chiropractic and see your life transform.

Can chiropractic affect immune function?  A study highlights key factors in how the adjustment influences immune response. 

A study measured the effects of chiropractic adjustments on indicators of the immune system. The outcomes of the study showed a single chiropractic adjustment to the spine causes a significant increase in the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2).  

Interleukin-2 is a type of protein, called a cytokine that helps increase the production and function of the body’s immune system.  Increasing levels of IL-2, signals an increase in immune system (specifically T cells and natural killer cells) to mount an attack against cancer cells.  The authors concluded that chiropractic adjustment can influence the biological immune response. 

Chiropractic care is fundamental to your body’s ability to adapt, heal and function optimally.  The study supports evidence of what chiropractor’s and people who receive regular chiropractic care have known for years; that chiropractic care helps your body stay healthy, boost natural immunity and reduce recovery time from sickness.  Chiropractic removes subluxation causing interference in the nerve system, which helps the body self regulate all systems and maintain health.  

Chiropractic restores life connection, restores normal body function, and helps improve quality of your life.
