Symptoms are the last stages of malfunction, not the first. By the time symptoms have occurred, years of opportunity for repair may have been lost. Why not correct the problems when they occur, rather than wait for years of damage to produce symptoms?

The nervous system is the coordinating system whereby the billions of cells in the body interact in harmony to express mind, body, spirit, emotion, artistic talent, speed, stamina, coordination and family relations. These misalignments in the spine and abnormal muscle fibre alignment are the cause of disharmony to this beautiful thing we called life. As wholistic practitioners, we strive to locate and correct these problems in order to enhance the health and vitality of everyone who steps foot into our Wellness Centre.

Wholistic Philosophy

Chiropractic holds that a vertebral subluxation (spinal misalignment), by its very existence, inhibits the body's ability to heal and regulate itself normally and also interferes with its ability to fully express its inherent potential. Every vertebral subluxation, by definition includes some alteration of nerve function from perfection to something else.

Massage Therapists understand that scar tissue (muscle fibre misalignments) also interfere with the proper function of the body. Toxins accumulate in these areas and restrict the proper flow of oxygen and nutrient rich blood to various areas of the body. These muscles also begin to negatively affect the spine to which they are attached. This is why it is so crucial that the nerves and the muscles are functioning at an optimum state - to allow normal physiological processes to take place - this is the only way health and vitality can be present.

In short, people who have these problems would be better off without them. And the sad reality is that most people don't even have symptoms of pain or discomfort to warn them of these problems until the problem has been there for months or even years. This is why preventative measures or regular "check-ups" need to be implemented - to prevent future problems. When there is an alteration of nerve or muscle function there is a creation of interference that results in a lessening of the body's innate ability to heal itself and express its maximum health potential.

That is the philosophy of wholistic care - that health comes from within. Our primary concern is the restoration of a healthy, natural spine and muscles and normal body function. No doctor or therapist in the world understands your body better than the one that resides within you. Health and vitality are already inside of you. We simply help remove the anchors that are holding them down. As Michelangelo said about the beauty of his statue David, "he was there all the time, he just had to be freed".

Who Can Benefit From Chiropractic and Massage Therapy?

Everyone! Proper function of the nervous system and muscles means improved function of the body. This will increase your mental, social and physical well being, therefore increasing your quality of life!

Children benefit just as much and often respond faster to care because the spinal misalignments (subluxations) have not yet become chronic. Childhood traumas to the spine, such as learning to walk, falling out of bed or even the birth process are often when the first subluxations occur. Ignored, or passed off as merely "growing pains", the tragic consequences can appear decades later. Since this condition worsens with time, early detection is very important. That's why wise parents request periodic chiropractic checkups for their infants and children.

Continued research shows that chiropractic care enables the body's innate intelligence to heal itself and therefore overcome such common ailments as infantile colic, bed wetting, ear infections, asthma, headaches, growing pains, ADHD/ADD and many more. Ask to see some of the research studies.

By eliminating spinal misalignments and scar tissue, chiropractic and massage therapy can not only result in the correction of numerous health problems, but may also prevent many conditions from developing. Imbalances in the human body are very serious and often develop into conditions affecting every part of the body.
