Why regular chiropractic adjustments are one of the most effective methods of boosting the immune response. With recent concerns over the spread of the Coronavirus, we at Total Health Chiropractic want to make it absolutely clear why we strongly advise that you maintain your nervous system at the highest level of health possible. Today scientific researchers are well aware of the critical link between the nervous system and the immune system. We show below various studies tha

Fact: a simple 10-15 minute walk can be all it takes to help you feel more energized. That’s right. The key to boosting your energy is staying active! Bottom Line: Studies have shown that even moderate exercise that gets your blood pumping and that oxygen flowing can increase your energy levels. And that’s not all… Why it Matters: Moderate exercise does more than just help train the heart to work more efficiently. Keeping active also promotes the release of endorphins in your

Sleep plays a significant role in your overall health. Did you know that chronic sleep deficiency has been linked to obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue syndrome, and more?! Bottom Line: Most of us know someone who doesn’t have the best sleeping patterns. Not surprisingly, many of us think of ourselves when this topic comes up because we’re all too familiar with the fatigue, brain fog, and worn- down feeling that comes with missing out on a good night

Certainly, compared with my previous home in Spain, the work ethic here seems to be off the charts. People I meet, and certainly many of my patients, regularly tell me that they put in 60+ hour work weeks. This is not without a cost and every year we are seeing more and more health-related issues that can be traced directly to this s

Chiropractic is for winners! This is something I’ve been thinking about recently as I visited the Rugby World Cup in Japan. For those of you who don’t know, rugby is a bruising game where 30 men (or women) put their bodies on the line to wrestle and fight an oval-shaped ball over the opposition line. Some say the game is crazy and after playing it myself for over twenty years I still feel pain from some of the hits I took. Would I do it all again? Absolutely! And then there i

Chiropractic has been around for well over 100 years now. It is very established in most western countries and is now starting to spread to the East. Let me explain why chiropractic is so amazing and why it works so well. Beauty in Simplicity You see, its beauty is in its simplicity.
