The Power of Functional Wellness
Functional Wellness focuses on the health as a whole in order to influence the health of individual parts
Chiropractors, physiotherapists, and nutritionists are among the leading lights in the functional wellness movement. We seek to help our patients take a new approach to healthcare which emphasizes the combination of knowledge and natural healthcare approaches with functional medicine to create profound changes in the way you feel, look and function on a daily basis. We take the time to work with you on an individual basis to create a plan that is:
- Holistic
- Safe
- Preventive
- Evidence-based
- Promoting optimal function
So how does functional wellness work?
Dysfunction is the precursor to disease and injury
Operating on this basis, chiropractic, as a part of functional wellness, seeks to support a change in lifestyle that will prevent diseases and injuries from materializing. Chiropractic care in and of itself is a champion of functional wellness- rather than waiting for spinal injury and degeneration to occur, we take a proactive approach to maintaining spinal health. Through adjustment of the spinal joints, restoring alignment, treating the soft tissues and addressing postural shortcomings, we are influencing systemic change. The result is a treatment that anticipates spinal degeneration and puts the right conditions in place to prevent this from happening.
When you then combine this with other lifestyle adjustments, such as diet, sleep, exercise and stress reduction, you will increase the function of your body’s core functional systems and your health will improve. We are committed to working with your primary care physician, physiotherapists and nutritionist to create a plan that will benefit your particular condition.
