Chiropractic
The Chiropractic approach to health care focuses on the patient's overall health and well being. Chiropractic Doctors not only deal with disorders of the musculoskeletal system, but also with factors that affect overall health such as diet, exercise, rest, environment, and heredity. This approach in treating health problems is distinct from that of standard medicine. The goal of Chiropractic is to establish an equilibrium between the body's structure and function, thus allowing the body to harness it's powerful self-healing abilities. Dr. M will provide natural, drugless, nonsurgical treatment that channels the body's inherent healing properties. Treatment may consist of manipulative therapies such as spinal or joint adjustments, including gentle, low force techniques, Myofascial Release Technique, Active Release Technique, or Nutritional Healing.
Active Release and Myofascial Release techniques
During treatment, Dr. M may utilize Myofascial Release and Active Release Techniques. This involves an assessment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves. Treatment consists of manual lengthening of specific anatomical areas. The goal is to stretch the fascia which is located between the skin and the underlying muscle and bone structure. This allows connective tissue to reorganize in a more flexible and functional manner, thus restoring optimal function and motion and decreasing pain.
Nutritional Healing
Dr. M will test the bio-energetic status of the body's key organs and glands by utilizing acupressure points and kinesiological based muscle assessments. This allows Dr. M to identify problems areas and interference fields within the body that may contribute to illness, weaknesses, nutritional imbalances, or deficiencies. Once this is determined, Dr. M will design a precise treatment plan for a rapid return to optimal health.
Raw Vegan Lifestyle
Dr. M can further guide you to optimal health and nutrition. The concept of a Raw Vegan Diet may seem to be a recent trend but it actually dates back to one of the earliest civilizations. Our prehistoric ancestors lived solely on raw fruits, vegetables, leaves, nuts, and seeds. Raw and living foods are foods that naturally contain enzymes. Enzymes play a vital role in the functioning of our body's way down to the cellular level. Heating food above 116 degrees Fahrenheit destroys these vital enzymes, altering the foods molecular structure, and furthermore, creating toxins. Raw vegan and living foods provide the highest and purest nutritional value.
