My philosophy of medicine is simple. The human body has incredible healing powers.If you cut your finger, your body knows how to heal it. If your blood chemistry is altered, your kidneys will respond. However, in the world we live in we constantly expose our bodies to challenges. This makes it difficult for our bodies to take care of themselves.

“Poor food choices, toxins, trauma, accidents, and emotional stress.”

These challenges put stress on our systems and we occasionally need help to push our bodies back into equilibrium. Systems like chiropractic, acupuncture, naturopathy, and homeopathy all help the body use its own resources to heal in the proper manner. Systems that use suppressive drugs do not encourage healing, they may “fix” the symptoms quickly, but the underlying cause of the disturbance is not addressed and is therefore “driven” to a deeper level of pathology.

I believe in preventative and maintenance medicine. I don't believe in using suppressive systems. My goal is always to treat the disturbance so the patient feels better that day, but then to spend the time to find the cause of the problem and remove it.

I see everyday that people are healthier, happier, and better able to deal with stress when they get adjusted regularly, and are treated with the correct homeopathic remedy.

We have to recognize that we didn't develop a headache in one day, or food allergies in a week. It is unlikely that we can get rid of our problems in one or two visits. Making the symptoms go away without treating the cause isn't the way to become healtier.
