To improve recovery rates, we typically address three sides of your health. We call the three sides of health the “triad of health.” The traid of health consists of a physical side of your health, a chemical side of your health, and an electrical side of your health.
- The physical side of the body is governed by the nervous system. Muscles, arteries, organs, they are all governed by nerve function. When the nervous system doesn’t work properly or isn’t functioning efficiently, the body will not function properly. Chiropractic focuses on restoring or optimizing proper neurological function.
- The chemical function of the body is determined by the both input and output. Proper body function and repair is governed by what you ingest. The foods you eat and fluids you drink are assimilated for fuel and repair. We look closely to see if you are eating a balanced diet and if you need additional nutrient supplementation to enhance repair and function. The other side of the chemical aspect of your body function is to make sure the body is eliminating or detoxifying properly. Failure to eliminate waste properly will result in compromised function. We utilize various means to enhance elimination and detoxification that will lead to an enhanced recovery and improved overall function of the body.
- The electrical side of the triangle is just that, the acupuncture pathways. If the acupuncture pathway does not have enough energy, the organ system the pathway supplies will be weak in function. If the pathway has too much current, there will be heat or inflammation in that system. If the pathways aren’t evaluated, the recovery could be impaired.
