Our Core Ideas

Recently Dr. Matt and I have been focusing our attention on clarity. One of our first tasks was writing down in an easy to read way the basic premises that drive our practice. I would like to share them with you as I believe they are of utmost importance in regards to your health and your understanding of chiropractic.



Our Core Ideas


1. Everything In Life Is Continually Changing, Including Your Body. Your body must constantly adapt and change to your environment to stay alive. EVERY MOMENT, your body is either growing stronger and moving towards health, wellness, and wholeness, or growing weaker and moving away from health and the state of wholeness it desires.

2. You Are More Than Just Your Body. In you (and in all LIVING things) there is an energy present that is absent in NON-LIVING things. This “life energy” is used by every cell in your body to carry out all the activities and functions needed to keep you alive and well.

3. Health Is A Product Of The Normal Expression Of Your Life Energy. Health is the result when your mind and body FUNCTION NORMALLY and easily ADAPT to common stresses in your daily life. This natural and dynamic state is a result of the adequate expression of life energy in your body.

4. Your Body Requires Specific Elements For Health. In order to maximize the expression of your life energy you need three key elements: 1) a deliberate and POSITIVE FOCUS, 2) a HEALTHY LIFESTYLE, and 3) a CLEAR NEUROLOGICAL CONNECTION between your brain and your body.

5. Your Brain-Body Connection Is Regulated By Your Spine. A clear neurological connection between your brain and body, and the maximum expression of your life energy, is only possible when your SPINE is ALIGNED and functioning normally.


THE PURPOSE OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE IS TO MAXIMIZE THE EXPRESSION OF YOUR LIFE ENERGY THROUGH RESTORING AND MAINTAINING THE NEUROLOGICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN YOUR BRAIN AND YOUR BODY.
