The American Countdown...hold on to your hats!


1 in 10 kids are on a psychotropic medication
1 in 9 adults over 20 years old have diabetes
1 in 8 deaths are not considered preventable (the rest are)
1 in 7 adults or more are on cholesterol drugs
1 in 6 kids are considered developmentally disabled
1 in 5 pre-adolescents are obese
1 in 4 women are on an anti-depressant
1 in 3 Americans get cancer
1 in 2 people die from their first symptoms of heart disease... a heart attack

The reality is, "I am a statistic." It is not about becoming one, it is about realizing I am one right now... the question is, which one am I?

No one wants to be the "ONE."

If I am going to be the "ONE," I am going to be the one that lives in the balance of the equation. I want to be one of the 4 of the 5 that doesn't ... or the 7 of 8, or the 1 in 2 that you don't hear about because I don't "get it," whatever "it" is.

77% of cancers are preventable. 7 out of 8 deaths are preventable. That means 7 out of 8 people are suffering and dying early and unnecessarily.

Be the statistic that no one hears about, the one that goes through life living fully happily, and enjoying a long and healthy, vibrant life.



How much more will you be, contribute, or offer your family and the world by committing to being healthy, happy, clear minded, and the best version of yourself?

We can always improve. There is no upper limit to health, happiness and fulfillment, but there is a lower limit for sure... don't go there!

Be proactive! Take control of your health! Learn what you need to do in order to stand out from the pack. Be accountable and responsible for your own fate and health and the health of your children. Set your kids up right with the appropriate priorities and example of how to live a whole and healthy life. Seek help BEFORE the need is apparent, and take action when it is. Don't make excuses, don't accept the status quo, do not fall victim of moderation, and don't settle for good enough. Your LIFE depends on it and you can achieve more!


We can do better! Here is to a fantastic day! Share this with someone you care about! Have them call in for a Check-up! Tell your friends!

FREEDOM- CHIROPRACTIC STYLE

Freedom is a very powerful word. Freedom is the ability to exercise choice. Freedom is also the capacity to engage in certain actions without interference, The concept and principles of freedom are enormous; countries have been founded on it, societies run by it and wars have been fought over it. Chiropractic care shares many similarities with the definitions that are mentioned above because it offers freedom for people who choose to use it. Most people think of chiropractic care as a natural treatment of an ache or an injury, the freedom from pain. This can be valuable to the person suffering from discomfort. It alows them to resume their normal activities, return to work or sleep through the night. They can do their homework, earn the money they need to support their family or have energy throughout the day when the pain is no longer there, normal routines return. People who chose regular chiropractic care enjoy freedom of  movement. Their spines and nervous systems becom...
