Health Education
Well-informed patients make better health decisions
Who ends up suffering from your health decisions if they’re wrong – you or your doctor? 

It is a known fact that well-informed patients make better health decisions. The word "health" itself is used rather loosely often meaning absence of disease or symptoms. However, the true meaning of "health" is a state in which everything is functioning at 100%.

Our philosophy is that you need to understand enough to make the correct decisions about your health and so in addition to giving one-on-one health advice, we offer in-office workshops on many topics including ones listed at the bottom of this page.  (If you would like to schedule a health workshop for your group or organization on these or other health topics, please contact our office.) 

We also send out a newsletter at least every 2 months to all of our patients and anyone who signs up on our web site to receive it by email.

NEW FEATURE:
Check out our new 3D Spine Simulator to learn more about spinal misalignments, the related parts of the body, and the long-term effects of leaving them untreated.





The Hidden Cause of Health Degeneration

Many of you may not fully understand how much of an effect spinal misalignments can have on your overall health. To help provide you this information here in a visual way that will make it easier to understand, we have a 3D model of the spine you can access by clicking the “Click to View” button below left.

Interactive 3D Spine Simulator:
This new feature on our web site delivers a wealth of information on the spine. With this information alone, you will understand more about your body’s function and one of the main causes of the body’s malfunctioning that leads to health problems. Clicking on the link will launch a new window with the simulator. Here are instructions on how to use it:

A. Each vertebra in the spine, and the organs and nerves affected by misalignments of that vertebra
The opening window will show health conditions in the affected areas that can result from spinal misalignments causing nerve interference or irritation. Click on each vertebra to see which locations of the body are affected with the nerves from that area.

B. The effects that spinal misalignments have over time on your spine
Look toward the bottom of the screen and you’ll see 3 graphics next to each other. Click on the picture that is a side view of the lower spine. You’ll now be in the Subluxation window and there are 2 pages of information here (use the flashing purple arrow to switch between those 2 pages). Next, click on the Degeneration button on the left below the spinning man and there will be 12 pages of information on how spinal degeneration occurs as you age (again, use the flashing purple arrow to move through the pages).

C. The effects of good and bad posture
The information on good versus bad posture can be seen by clicking on the small graphic at the bottom of a back and side view of a body. There you’ll have 4 choices under “Postures” that will show you the correct versus incorrect positions for Driving or Sitting; proper positions for Sleeping; and normal posture from a side view and back view.
