As human beings we face physical, emotional and chemical stressors on a daily basis. The quality of our lives is based on how well we adapt, overcome or rise above them.

Chiropractic work frees blocked energy in the body and soothes the debilitating effects of stress by balancing the nervous system. When this blocked energy is cleared, the power of life within you can heal you. This is the same power that heals a cut on your finger or knows to digest food after you've eaten a meal, for example.

I have been practicing chiropractic for over twenty years and have found that clearing deep-seated thoughts from subconscious memory dramatically improves one's physiology and health. Most health problems are stress-related.

Stressors can be broken down into:

• trauma (accidents and injuries),
• toxicity (both dietary and environmental) and
• thoughts (thinking and reacting negatively to what life brings us).

Of these three, thoughts affect our health more than any of other factor. Without even being consciously aware of it, the thoughts we choose to think generate feelings and emotions that can create physical problems. Core health issues can often be traced back to your mind, to residual memory patterns operating in your life from old injuries and negative experiences.

I combine gentle, non-forceful adjustments to correct subluxations (misalignments) of the spine, cranium and extremities along with clearing neuro-emotional patterns from subconscious memory. The result is that long-standing patterns at the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels release, allowing deep healing to occur.

It is also important to evaluate lifestyle. Read more on lifestyle choices. Often, a small change in a habit can have a very positive effect which can inspire you to make more changes. It is empowering to take responsibility for your health since your state of wellness is largely a result of your lifestyle choices.
