Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic is the foundation of our holistic center because it activates optimal functioning of the nervous system. And that is at the core of human health, as the entire infrastructure of individual systems within the body relies on the nervous system as the means of communication. Through balancing of the spine, cranium and extremities, chiropractic provides the basis for an optimal environment for clear, unimpeded inter-system, and intra-system communication.

At Holistic Health and Wellness, Applied Kinesiology (AK) is the cornerstone chiropractic technique. AK employs muscle testing to achieve pinpoint diagnoses and allow meaningful healing to take place immediately! AK is founded on the principles of the triad of health; the mental, chemical and structural components that interact to comprise overall wellness. All of these components need to be addressed to regain optimal function and health. It is a systematic approach to determine what is wrong holistically and the best course of action to get to the root cause.

Acupuncture

The ancient Chinese believed that there is a universal life energy call Chi present in every living creature. This energy is said to circulate throughout the body along specific pathways that are called meridians. As long as this energy flows freely throughout the meridians, health is maintained, but once the flow of energy is blocked, the system is disrupted and pain and illness occur. This ancient healing art uses very fine needles placed in acupuncture points and around scar tissue to restore a balanced flow of Chi or life force energy through the meridians or pathways. We also employ Tsing using a blunt instrument to stimulate acupuncture points and electro-acupuncture, if the patient is afraid of needles.

Laser Auriculotherapy

Laser Auriculotherapy is stimulation of the auricle of the external ear with needles or electrodes to alleviate health conditions in other parts of the body.

This integrated system of Chinese and Western practices of auricular acupunctureis available at Holistic Health & Wellness, specufically for in smoking cessation and weight release.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) studies the pattern of "programming" created by the interaction between the brain ("neuro"), language ("linguistic") and the body. From the NLP perspective, it is this interaction that produces both effective and ineffective behavior. NLP provides tools and skills for the development of the states of individual excellence, but it also establishes a system of empowering beliefs and presuppositions about what human beings are, what communication is, and what the process of change is all about. NLP is about self-discovery and exploring identity, and mission.
