Our Philosophy

We believe that...

We are more than just our physical body. We are body, mind, and spirit. Each one of us is a unique expression of an intelligent Universal Life Energy/Consciousness.

This Life Energy flows through us and expresses through our nervous system, the master control system in the body, allowing and enabling the body to regulate and heal itself. Healing truly comes from within, and we are meant to be in healthy balance.

Disease and illness are caused by interferences that block the communication between the nervous system and other body systems. These interferences may be a result of physical, mental, or emotional stresses or toxicity.

Our health is determined by our choices, which either support our expression of Life Energy or hinder it. Self-health is the process of taking charge of our health through self-awareness, self-knowledge, and self-care.

We do not have to be a victim of our circumstances or our genetics, as proven to us by the new science of epigenetics. We can choose to create health and healing in our life at any time.

Although we are each individual expressions of Life Energy, we are connected and bonded to each other by this same Universal Consciousness flowing through us. We thus affect each other on various levels, and we need each other to heal on both the individual and collective level. The support of family, friends, community, as well as capable healthcare advisers, is, therefore, essential to our health and well-being.

The principles of consciousness-based healthcare, which is inclusive of chiropractic care, allow for the full expression of well-being. By approaching and addressing our health and wellness challenges consciously and holistically, we can not only prevent the development of more serious, chronic, and life-threatening illnesses, but also decrease our health care costs.
