Years ago something happened to me that changed my life forever! Let me tell you my story!  I had kids!! No seriously, I have always tried to be a healthy person, but I never realized the power of chiropractic until Chloee and Liam. In 2001 I was determined to have a natural, healthy pregnancy and delivery.   During my first pregnancy I had a terrible neck pain that felt like my right shoulder and ear was attached.  It was constantly aching and driving me crazy. On top of that my hip was in pain. Sleeping was uncomfortable. I was balancing work with preparing for a family. I was getting adjusted and delivered a healthy baby girl, Chloee Bea.  Then for the first time, having this beautiful little girl in my arms, I realized how truly precious children are and how important it is that they are Fully Expressing Their Lives.  Okay, I was ready for number two but that did not happen.  After 3 years of trying to get pregnant, I started a chiropractic initial intensive care. Soon after that I was pregnant again!! Hey! Now four years apart I had number two. I adjusted Chloee & Liam within the first 24 hours of their lives and they have been getting checked once a week since.  See I had uncorrected, previous spinal injuries that healed wrong, weakened my spine and cause my body to be sick.  They went undetected for years. I thought having pains here and there was part of life.  Now I learned that is not true. I went through Liam’s whole pregnancy with NO headaches, neck or hip pain. Well, I was not going to let that happen to my kids.  Having my own children has allowed me to put my book knowledge into practical use. 

Folks, as a mother, a wife and a chiropractor I can no longer keep my light hidden under a bushel basket.  I need to share my passion and vision for the world with the world.  I have seen too many miracles happen with chiropractic care.  I cannot let it be relegated to the short-term treatment of back pain and headaches.  Chiropractic is about health on every level.  Back pain and headaches are part of that, but they are not all of that.  Every facet of a human being becomes brighter and better when they are more soundly connected with the source of life that is already in them!

Allow me to explain. Once, there was a clear and vibrant stream, running through the mountains to the ocean.  No one had to tell the stream where to go.  It just knew.  People found the stream and decided to use it for fishing, washing and transportation.  Then, they dug up the lands around the stream and built towns.  Often, trash and debris were thrown into the stream.  The more it was interfered with, the more difficult it was for the stream to run its course through the mountains and to the sea.  The people thought they knew more than the stream.  They built dams and dug canals and tried to force the stream to run a different course. When the stream flooded its banks and ruined the people’s property, they cursed the stream and built walls to keep the stream away.  More trash was thrown into the stream.  The fish either died or swam away. Only a few weeds grew.  The water was murky and dirty.  No one liked the stream anymore because it was polluted.  Many people wanted to use chemicals and technology to make the stream clean.  A group of young, healthy people decided to take matters into their own hands.  They had seen how previous generations had destroyed nature, and they wanted something better for their children.  These people worked day and night to remove the trash, tear down the dam, fill the canals, move the homes back, and restore the stream to its natural state.  They could not restore it 100%, but they removed as much interference as possible to allow the stream to fulfill its potential.  Many people claimed that these young people were stream savers and asked them to evaluate streams all over the country.  The group said, “We are not stream builders or savers.  We merely remove the interference caused by those before us so the stream can do what it was created to do.” No one ever has to tell a stream how to run.   It knows.

No one has to tell or give the body something from the outside to make it function.  Every cell of the body was created from a sperm and an egg.  The same intelligence that created the body can coordinate function for every cell of the body, as long as there is no interference. A stream does not need chemicals or technology to help it to run better. It knows its course.  The body does not need chemicals, therapies, or surgeries to tell it how to work.  It just needs to have no interference…. When people have function, they don’t want sex enhancing drugs, inhalers, antacids, or plastic surgery.  Bodies that function express optimum health. 

The triune of life is Intelligence, Energy and Matter.  A healthy stream has the intelligence to know how to run, the energy to move the water and support life, and the matter that forms the stream.  The body needs only the intelligence that created it, the energy to grow, and every organ and cell (matter) to function and express health. Nothing from outside can give a stream or a body intelligence, energy, or matter. It is all there from the beginning.  A body without interference is a body that can function optimally and express health on every level!

Here’s what some of my patients have to say:

- I do not have to take daily medication for headaches.                            -Lee Ann W.

- I was first exposed to the chiropractic way of living almost a decade ago when I was suffering from migraine headaches.  My headaches were eased and are now managed without drugs but through regular adjustments. I view chiropractic care as part of my regular wellness routine; it helps balance my healthy lifestyle. – Amy S.

- I had no back pain or complaints but started care to see if I could reach a higher level of health.  I noticed my health was improving.  At one point in my life, I would get sick at least once a month.  I noticed I wasn’t getting sick anymore.  It took my health to a much higher level.      -  Pam T.

- I have noticed that, by keeping regular appointments for my adjustments, I have better posture, and less episodes of illness.                - Jessica D.

With all the tragedies and near tragedies that have befallen our children, isn’t it time we stop talking and start doing? The doing comes from taking a stand with love and leading as role models for our children.  Chiropractic and wellness care are concepts whose time has arrived.  I am committed to bringing chiropractic and wellness to every member of our community.

The mission of Tree of Life Chiropractic Center is to educate everyone in our community.  I want everyone to know what Subluxation is and how it affects health; physically, emotionally, mentally and socially.  My purpose is to serve everyone who wants to maximize health potential through Chiropractic care.  I have devoted my life to removing Subluxation so people can live healthier lives and create a healthier, more loving world for our children.

I’m not a “back-cracking” chiropractor merely interested in the short-term treatment of back pain and headaches.  As a matter of fact, most of my adjusting is done with an instrument, or a light touch, and we get great results!  DC stands for Doctor of Chiropractic, but it could stand for Doctor of Connection.  You see, that is what I do.  Whether a practice member is sick or well, we all benefit from being more connected to the innate intelligence that is already in us, that already knows how to run our bodies and our minds perfectly.  Chiropractic is for a better functioning individual, family, community and world!  And that is why I do what I do!

At Tree of Life Chiropractic Center we offer three different types of care; the first is called INITIAL INTENSIVE CARE – This type of care requires the most energy and intent from the Chiropractor.  It is designed to get through the latest layers of accumulated damage and get you functioning and feeling better.  The next type of care is called RECONSTRUCTIVE CARE – Once a practice member is functioning and feeling better we can begin Reconstructive Care.  Here the focus is on re-training the spine and the nerve system habit patterns.  The body has become accustomed to being misaligned and needs to remember what it is like to be healthy.  The third type of care is known as WELLNESS CARE – At this level of care, patients are healthy.   Their symptoms, if any, are few and far between. They continue to have Subluxations removed to stay healthy and maximize their health potential.  This is the type of care that creates a healthy, loving world for future generations.  My goal is for all patients to truly achieve Wellness. These different types of care also carry different types of fees.  Sick care fees apply to Initial Intensive Care. Reconstructive and Wellness Care are provided under Well Care Fees.

Many people find that they actually save money on their health care expenses by seeing a chiropractor.  A study by Perot shows that chiropractic may double your immune capacity naturally and without drugs.  Another study by Blanks, Schuster and Dobson reports that there is a strong correlation between people under chiropractic care and self-reported improvement in health, wellness and quality-of-life.  Actually, there are numerous high quality scientific studies that show an absolute correlation with regular chiropractic care and an increase in health and well being!
