Family Chiropractic Clinic Of Hillsborough

 

The Holistic Health philosophy believe that the body, mind, emotions and the spirit are all interlinked and cannot be separated. We believe that you cannot have a problem in one area without it affecting all the other areas. We believe that the treatment of a problem in one area may include treating other areas as well because everything is interlinked. Therefore alternative care professionals often treat the whole person, the body, the emotions, the mind and the spirit.
The Medical philosophy is that the body is separate from the mind which is separate from the emotions which is separate from the spirit. Therefore they feel you can have a problem in one area and it does not affect the other areas. So you can treat one area without thinking about any other areas. They think if you treat one area it will not affect the other areas. They believe that if you have a problem in one area treating the other areas is of no use, because it cannot be the cause and will not influence the other area with the problem. They are very cause and effect focused. If you have a bacteria treat it with an antibiotic. They do not address the stress that lowered your immune system. They do not address pure nutrition that lowered the immune system and made you toxic. They do not address your dislike of your job that makes you angry all the time that affects your immune system and organs. The medical profession are very good with some problems but not so good with others problems. Usually these problems are so complex that several areas are causing the problem. This type of problem usually needs several systems of the body need to be treated, along with detoxification, dealing with stress, diet etc in order to see results. Many of the problems that fall into this category are chronic.

So as holistic practitioners we always recommend that you address your whole person: your body, your mind, your emotions and your spirit. That you address your stress, sleeping habits, dietary habits and your exercise habits. We recommend that you look at your exposures to toxins and allergens and then do things to detoxify and build your immune system. We recommend that you look at your life. Is it balanced? Are you happy at home, at work etc? For if you are happy with what you do you will find it easy and money will flow to you much more easily. Do you take time for fun, for you and for your loved ones? Do you speak up for yourself or always sacrifice your self for others? Or do you always have things your way even if the ones you love are not happy about them. Do you give to others or are you always taking. Do you count your blessings daily? Do you do anything to relieve stress like meditate, do yoga, deep breathing exercises, leave 10 minutes earlier so you are not rushing to get places etc. We could go on and on but you get the idea. As a chiropractor we can help with some of these things and recommend help from other professionals for others. It is your life. Make it worth living.
