Why choose a Chiropractor for Wellness Coaching?  First and foremost, Chiropractors are the first true Wellness Practitioners, basing treatment on promoting the normal anatomy of the neuro-musculoskeletal system, good nutrition, proper rest,  a heatlhy enviroment and sufficient exercise in the treatment of disease.  The following two quotes reflect the philosophy of Chiropractic:

     "There is but one cause in disease; the bodies inability to comprehend itself and/or it's environment.  There is but one cure in disease; the bodies ability to heal itself.  And there is only one thing that any doctor can do for a patient.  And that is to remove an obstruction to healing thus facilitating it."  Dr. Fred H. Barge

     "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patient in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." Thomas A. Edison
