We all know we’re supposed to eat healthy portions. So why is it that a rough day at the office or even just the smell of chocolate-chip cookies can cause us to throw our best intentions out the window?

I felt like she was a perfect fit. Dr. Caroline examined our son and explained how chiropractic has to do with the whole nervous system and that by making needed adjustments to his spine it would help his nasal system immune system and so much more. We’ve been visiting Dr Caroline for about a month now and so far I am very happy. Our son loves her and going for his regular adjustments. We love her. We are hoping and praying that with God’s help and direction that these adjustments Dr Caroline is making will help benefit our son’s overall health. Next step…Mommy and Daddy getting adjustments.

The following article was written by Jane Brody, Health Editor of the New York Times. The causes of bone loss can be related to genetics, hormones, diet, fitness level, damage from the spine from wear and tear, and auto-immune diseases to name just a few. Regardless of the cause, my personal belief is that people […]
Picture the scene, if you will….trainer and client, hand-in-hand, running through a meadow, muscles rippling, smiles on faces, all is right with the world. They are running to their three day a week picnic, and client is ready to whip out the food journal that he/she brings religiously to each picnic =;) Upon handing journal […]
