Have you ever asked yourself: Why does a person drink alcohol? To feel good; to cover up the pain. What happens after a person drinks alcohol? You get a hangover; you still feel the pain. Why does a person take medication? To feel good; to get rid of the symptoms; to cover up the pain. What happens after a person takes medication? The symptoms return, and you feel you must take more medication because you have not gotten rid of the cause.

A big concern from many students and new DC’s is whether our philosophy is practical. Please allow me to share my feelings on that. I was raised in chiropractic. It is something I do not take for granted, and appreciate so very much. Not that I was taught the words to express our philosophy, but that our lifestyle was a living example of it. I was always confident that the body would heal itself from the injuries, and illnesses encountered while growing up.
