“The greatest wealth is health”

– Virgil

For most of us living a fast and furious modern life, juggling between work and family, we often neglect our health. It normally takes a crisis before we slow down, stop, and take care of our bodies. Symptoms are the body’s way of indicating that something is wrong and requires attention; much like the ‘check engine light’ on your car. Generally, we tend to cover up or ignore those symptoms until something breaks down.

One thing to always remember is that health is our choice, it is easier to assign blame instead of taking personal responsibility. We choose not to leave work earlier, eat healthier, or manage stress in productive ways. As with our mental health and emotions, we can choose to take better care of our bodies too. By taking care of ourselves, we can handle stress better  and adapt to situations much more readily. There  are many different things we can do to better care for our bodies, but one of the best places to start is with the structure of the body itself.

The spine is a magnificent piece of engineering that is the mainframe of our body. It holds and protects the nervous system, which is connected to every part of our body. If the body and brain can’t communicate effectively problems and symptoms arise.

This is why it is so important that you and your family’s spines are checked regularly to remove any possible interference through chiropractic care and allow our bodies to express themselves at their maximum potential.

Remember to take care of your nervous system, it’s the only one you have!
