Chronic Disease - It's The New "Normal"


In 2016 new statistics showed that 43% of children have chronic disease and 1 in 6 children have developmental delays! Chronic diseases are responsible for 7 of 10 deaths each year, and treating people with chronic diseases accounts for 86% of our nation’s health care costs. 

Something is not working! 

Our current lifestyles are not creating health in adults OR children. 

Eating junk food, sitting all day and covering up symptoms with drugs and medications are NOT creating health!  Remember, you create your health with the choices you make.  People don’t just “get sick.”  Each thing you put in your body or do for yourself (or don’t do) leads you down one of two paths – sickness and disease or vibrant health.

Most people don’t realize that their spines are something that should be maintained from birth.  Building thriving health involves a healthy nervous system that allows the brain to communicate with all the parts of the body.  It also is very important to exercise and to fuel your body with the nutrients it needs by eating healthy, organic foods and avoiding junk.

If this unhealthy trend continues what will the future of our country look like?
Who will lead our country if the rates keep on rising like this? 

What will YOUR future look like?  Where do you see yourself in the next 5-10 years, how about 20?  Do you want to end up under constant medical treatment feeling sick and tired OR do you want to end up with energy – strong and vital?  You make the choices.  A good place to start is with chiropractic adjustments.  We can help guide you in a healthy, natural lifestyle.  Just ask us for our recommendations on nutrition, exercise and posture.

FREEDOM- CHIROPRACTIC STYLE

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.
