As a Chiropractor in Mission Viejo, I have a big purpose. I have been a Mission Viejo Chiropractor for 35 years to date. I have treated over 20,000 patients in my career so far. Some consider me to be the best Chiropractor in Mission Viejo because of the specialty that I excel in and the results we achieve. So, my bigger purpose is to help as many people as I can in the next 23 years before I retire.
One of my biggest responsibilities is to help people have an alternative to drugs. Drug sales are the biggest expense in health care, more than procedures, tests, and surgeries put together. Yet none of those things restore your health.
I am not saying that they are unnecessary. It is smart to get regular check-ups and other tests like mammograms or colonoscopies periodically to make sure that there is nothing medically wrong going on in your body.
But, what about being as healthy as possible? Tests don’t make you healthy. They just make sure there isn’t a serious medical issue happening. Drugs don’t make you healthy. They just mask any symptoms you are taking them for, and at the same time, they produce serious side effects that you don’t really want to experience. Yet that is still what people turn to when they feel that something isn’t right internally.
I feel like it is my duty to teach people what they can do to naturally get rid of aches and pains, at least for a temporary period of time until they can get checked to find out if there is a Chiropractic solution to their pain. So, we teach a Pressure Point Therapy workshop in our office that is open to the public!
All you have to do is mention this publication and you can come in for FREE to learn how to do Pressure Point Therapy by yourself at home. The workshop is always Tuesday nights, twice a month except in November and December where we only do 1 workshop each month. Be sure to call to make a reservation because space is limited. You must also bring a partner that you can train with so they can work on you at home and vice versa. And, we serve dinner because the workshop is at night from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.!
Pressure points are those knots you get for seemingly no reason that you want someone to rub out to make them feel better. They develop over time usually from some physical trauma or mental stress. Something triggers the nerves in your spine to become irritated. Over time this leads to muscle spasms and as a result, painful pressure points or trigger points develop and cause you pain.
This is a vicious cycle. The nerves become irritated and cause the muscles to tighten up. The tightened muscles pull on the bones, and the bones pull the spine out of alignment. This causes the bones to pinch the nerves and the cycle starts all over again.
Because this distress is caused by a cycle, your body cannot stop it by itself. Your body needs help.
We teach the workshop to provide you with a tool you can use with a partner so you can help yourself to loosen your pressure points and feel better. This method is helpful, but it is also diagnostic. If you continue to find trigger points, you should consult the best Chiropractor in Mission Viejo to see what is actually causing the problem over and over again. If we find the cause of the problem and can ultimately fix it, your quality of life could change drastically.
Make “no bones about it”. There has to be a problem to fix if this pain and discomfort keep coming back. And, that is where I can help.
Being healthy is really about proper function. The United States is one of the most affluent countries in the world yet we rate only 50th in life expectancy. Obesity and diabetes are reaching epidemic proportions. Something has to change to improve the health of everyone and especially everyone reading this blog.
Why shouldn’t you be as healthy as possible? The World Health Organization says that the biggest mistake people make is to think they are O.K. just because they don’t have symptoms. A person thinks he is well if he doesn’t have pain every day.
The key here is that your nervous system controls your health. My job, as a specialist, is to find and correct any nervous system issues that you may have before the problem gets out of hand.
Are you reading this thinking “I don’t need it”? Remember, no symptoms from stress, your age, or your job you are experiencing are normal. You should be living a pain-free and healthy life!
Why not give us a call about our workshop so you can be the healthiest you can be. Not only do we serve dinner, but more importantly, I will teach you everything you need to know to be as healthy as possible for the rest of your life.
