What is TRUE Health?

The Natural State of your Brain and Body is Health. 

Our bodies consist of 70-100 trillion cells. 
This community of cells is under control of our brain/nervous system.  
Think of an orchestra.... It has a woodwind section (respiratory system), a brass section (immune system), percussion section (cardiac system), piano (digestive system), etc... and a conductor (brain/nervous system).  

Coughing, sneezing and even fevers may actually be signs that your body is working correctly: the definition of true health!

The woodwind section can play just fine on its own for a short solo but when the rest of the band has to join in on the performance it needs the RIGHT CUE from the conductor, at precisely the right time or else the WHOLE band gets out of tune/sync. This is the role of our nervous system in relation to the other systems of the body - It coordinates and regulates it's functions.  But if the conductor (nervous system) was drunk on the job (subluxated), how would the performance be??  

This is why we cannot define health on how we "feel" and need to understand that health is really about one thing - FUNCTION. 

Health is when: 100% of your cells are functioning at 100% of their capacity 100% of the time.

Can you call it health when 96% of your cells are functioning at 92% of their capacity 89% of the time (and you don't have any symptoms)?? Of course not! 

True health is when your body works as it was designed.

Feeling Great

Most residents of Elkhorn and Walworth County think that how they feel is an indicator of how healthy they are. It’s not true.

Let’s say you unknowingly eat some spoiled food. Later you get stomach cramps and vomit. You certainly don’t feel well, but thankfully your body is functioning correctly. Imagine the tragic consequences of taking a drug to calm your stomach, retaining the toxic food!

Functioning Great
Your brain, spinal cord and all of your nerves control and regulate your body. Every cell, tissue, organ and system (even your immune system!) take orders from your nervous system.

Thus, true health is how well your nervous system is orchestrating the workings of your body. That’s why vertebral subluxations are so serious! Compromised brain-to-body or body-to-brain communications can be the underlying cause of a variety of health problems.

Many people with a spinal problem discover that other health problems resolve with chiropractic care. Practice Members often report that as their care progresses, they notice other positive changes in their health.
