One cannot have more dark.

Nor can you truly posses disease!

Darkness is simply the absence of light. In order to rid your room of darkness, isn’t it easier to light a candle, than to remove the dark?

In order to rid ourselves of disease, we must promote health. Chasing something that only exists because man has given name to it is a futile attempt at restoring health.

Why expect more?

Why expect more?

Why do we expect more out of your health?

We have seen some pretty great transformations in some pretty train-wrecked people, thats why.

Imagine if you had a crew show up to build your home. This crew had some of the best foundation workers, concrete preparers, sheetrock guys, and roofers. They showed up with not only the fastest crew, but a crew that could make the most precise cuts for your tile work. Not only did the best crew sho, but this crew showed up with all the tools for the job. The shovels, hammers, levels and even the power tools. The crew was really on the ball. But, there was just one problem: Everyone showed up but one guy, the guy with the plans.

What happened?

Unfortunately, even the best crew with the best tools cannot build the simplest home without the instructions.

Your nerve system communicates the instructions. If you have all the pieces (organs, glands, and tissues), yet you have poor communications of the work to be done then the outcome will be less than desirable. This is where chiropractic comes in.

 

The intelligence

We understand that the human body is a marvelous machine, which can accomplish amazing things. We know that there is an amazing intelligence within you that is in control of all actions, adapting you to the environment you live.
Innate intelligence is a term that chiropractors use to label the intelligent power within each and every living thing. This powerful maestro orchestrates life itself. Knowing what chemicals need to be filtered to breathe, and being able to use this polluted environment we live in at times to thrive is no small feat. These are just a few examples of your innate intelligence’s job.
Honoring this innate intelligence means trusting your body, not stressing it when possible, and acknowledging that you are not a random heap of materials that lives in a poorly organized fashion. You were powerfully made, and your innate intelligence needs no interference. This is called “thinking inside-out”. This is how we approach your health at Adjust.img_0279

Super Bowl Greatness

Super Bowl Greatness

Why do people get so excited about football?
Of course, it is marketed extremely well.
Then there’s the bright lights, performances from the greatest artists at halftime.
However, why care about football at all?
I believe it is because people want what these Super Bowl players seem to possess: GREATNESS
It is our basic need to be significant. We want to be great at what we choose to do. No matter what we choose, it is our choice and therefore significant to us!

This begs the question, “How do I become great?”
Simply, greatness starts with great health.

No matter how much talent a person possesses, without great health, that talent will never shine.

*Spoiler alert: Most often, the healthiest team wins it all. It really is that simple.

Of course, you are likely not playing in a Super Bowl. However, does that mean your health is somehow not as important? You have goals and aspirations just like Drew Brees does. Sure, his physical prowess is obviously important, but it is not as important as yours and mine.

Get healthy first, then do great things.. @Adjust

Big Mistake

Often when people come to the conclusion that they have failed their health without knowing, despair can be seen. This is totally understandable. They should be disappointed, they should be mad! Imagine focusing your life on things you believe will bring security:

  • Paying of your mortgage on or ahead of time.
  • Showing up to church on Sunday to keep the kids focused on good, healthy spiritual habits for their future.
  • Walking 3 times a week to help your mental stress, as well as keep the weight from accumulating.
  • Picking the side salad at one meal per day.10635804_10154711540875657_3083997867570965628_n

The list goes on and on. However the BIG MISTAKE is not focusing on the one thing you cannot live without: a healthy nerve system.

Technology allows a chiropractor to check the health of your nerve system. There is no guesswork, we now know whether your nerve system is functioning properly. If not, we know how to make changes to positively affect the health of your nerve system.

 

Isn’t that normal?

Often, a 35-50 year old individual, whom initially enters my office, believes that it is normal to feel fatigue midday. They chalk it up to kids, age, stress at work, spousal issues, etc. No doubt, there will always be times when stress will get us down.

However, regular fatigue by 2pm is not normal at all. Fatigue is the body’s way of trying to get you to slow down. Honestly, most of us in our current work environments are not really working as hard as we use to 500 years ago. If you are hunting for 6 hours, walking and running great distances to catch your food, a midday nap is acceptable. However, if your workday consists of simple chores around the house, some computer work, checking emails, and running a couple of errands, then you should have plenty of energy left for the afternoon.

This message you are receiving from your body is this: you are not recovering properly. I have found these are the 3 most likely reasons:

  1. Your immune system is working too hard.
  2. Your adrenal glands are overworked (often noticed by poor quality sleep).
  3. Your digestion is not properly assimilating the nutrients as it should.

So what to do? Do we take more vitamins, drink more coffee, step it up to a Monster Energy? Um….no. For long-term, positively-affecting-health changes try this:

  1. Work on your ability to adapt. This is what it means to not recover properly. I talk about this on YouTube. Check it out here.
  2. Take time to consider the power of your innate intelligence. 
  3. Get adjusted. Your ability to handle stress properly is directly proportional to the health of your spine and nerve system. Find a chiropractor that measures your nerve system, utilizes pure chiropractic techniques and has an understanding of your health goals.
