Lose Your Owners Manual?

Did you get one?

It’s truly amazing the different ways people value their health. In fact, it’s one of the things that make everyday practice so fascinating.

Each of us is given this amazing body. It’s self-healing. Self-regulating. And thankfully, takes care of millions of details all by itself without us having to give it any conscious thought. This “autopilot” feature of our bodies gets many of our patients into trouble. It prompts many to neglect some of the basic maintenance necessary for a long, trouble-free life.

If our bodies came with an Owners Manual, exercise, getting the proper rest, eating nutritious foods, drinking enough pure water would all be mentioned. Neglect any of these basics and your body warns you with hunger, thirst, lack of energy and other symptoms.

You might be surprised what else you’d find in your Owners Manual. Since your nervous system orchestrates everything, you’d also find mention of making sure your nervous system was vertebral subluxation complex-free. And that’s where we come in. That’s the primary purpose of chiropractic care.

Pain can be a compelling motivator to seek chiropractic care. However, it’s a lot like waiting until you’re starving to death to eat, or not drinking any water until your dehydrated and hallucinating!

That’s what creates the fascinating part: how to explain the ongoing benefits of regular chiropractic care, rather than waiting for obvious symptoms. If you have some ideas about how to effectively explain this idea, please let me know on your next visit, or email us using the link below.

Dr. John Asks some important questions of interest to Gig Harbor residents - Chiropractor Gig Harbor Dr. John Asks...

How could chiropractic help a stomach problem?
Chiropractic works by locating and reducing areas of the spine compromising nerve communications between your brain and your body. If nerves to or from your stomach are irritated, your stomach won't work right. Chiropractors find the source of the interference, reduce it and allow your body to work as designed.
How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
