Back To Health

Welcome back Natural Health Family. Imagine everyone is doing well and enjoyed the past weekend. Fall is definitely here with the cooler temperatures. Changes in the seasons bring different opportunities and activities. It is important to stay healthy as we fall into this change and onto the next. October is still chiropractic month and with that being said let’s talk more about what it all really means as a way to help ourselves be healthy and well. 


Many times when we think of chiropractic we go to the aspects of helping to align our bodies so that we feel better and move better. This is a great attribute of chiropractic but only one characteristic of what it brings to the table. The study of chiropractic is about helping the whole person get well. It is believed that Thomas Edison once said “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.” This quote highlights more aspects of what chiropractic is about. It is not only about adjusting and realigning the body. It is the restoration and regeneration of the whole person through means to bring someone from dis-ease to health and to sustain health. We all have had moments where we get out of balance and have health issues. However, this may actually help us to see that we need to correct and redirect ourselves so that we can get back in alignment. Life can be more difficult at times and we can start having some issues. However, that is why we can connect with each other and find help so that we can endure life’s challenges. 


With all the illnesses in the world, sometimes it can be difficult to realize that health is our natural state. Now with such great technology you would think we would be at our best as a nation in regards to our wellness. However, that is not the case. Health doesn’t have to be complex when we align ourselves appropriately to allow our own healing potential within.


Have a great and blessed week!


Dr. Chip

Good Food, Digestion and Absorption

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-                 I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving and were actually grateful for all the food that we ate. There is a lot of good foods in the Thanksgiving meal, but also some that probably weren’t the best for us. We will just have to get back on the good eating bandwagon so that we stay healthy through the rest of these holidays coming up. I try to remind people to stay hydrated because it’s easy to forget to drink water and get your electrolytes. Staying hydrated just helps so many systems of the body and helps the pH to stay correct, which helps keep the bugs, which are in us and on us at all times, under control.                 We had a great Black Friday Open House/Patient Appreciation Day and were very thankful for the folks that came out and enjoyed some food and drink, an...

Breast Health

  Hello Everyone in Natural Health Nation-             Aren’t the trees beautiful? Fall is such a beautiful time of year and the weather has been outstanding. I hope you were able to get outside and increase your vitamin D stores for the winter. Remember that vitamin D is activated by sunlight so it’s important to get some. Vitamin D is also an oil soluble vitamin so you must be consuming good fats in order to have a good vitamin D source. If you get into the science of vitamin D, you’ll find it comes from cholesterol so the mainstream medicines war on cholesterol causes vitamin D levels to be low and this causes lots of immune system problems and other issues. We help our patients be able to digest and absorb fats and watch that their vitamin D levels are optimum.             The article I’m sending along this week looks at screenings and mammograms and how they can be...
  Hello everyone and natural health Nation -      Well we finally got some rain and now I’m beginning to wonder if we could turn it back off. It seems we're never happy - ha. I was surprised to see that the ground had dried out that much in a fairly short amount of time but with the rain we had this weekend, everything should be good for quite a while. I was happy to see the grass and everything green back up and the corn and beans are just growing like mad. We were working out in the rain on Saturday to finish some jobs and it was nice that it was warm. I'm sure we'll get lots of sunshine as the summer progresses and probably need more rain at some point too.      The article I'm sending along today looks at what happens to the human body when you eat processed foods. This is a problem during the summer when everyone gets into vacation mode and doesn't eat nearly as well as they did in the Spring. It's one of our problems in o...
