Chiro VS Medicine?

  • Chiro VS Medicine?

Dear Friends,
Let’s talk medicine. Sometimes people assume chiropractors are against medicine. 
That is so not true!
I will give you my stance on this. I am against an overuse of medicine. I do not agree in medication to get a blood value down, but yet nothing being done to address the underlying cause. This happens a lot with cholesterol, high blood pressure, triglycerides, and blood sugar. You can take a pill to get your number down but still be as sick as before. 

In fact, many times you are sicker than before because of the side effects of the medicine. Actually they are direct effects of the medicine- side effects of the medicine give the illusion of rarity. We still use cholesterol lowering drugs as an example, better known as statins. They are hepatotoxic which means they harm the liver. The reason for so called side effects are drugs’ either speed up or slow down a function. Those functions need enzymes to work. Those enzymes work to operate multiple functions. That is how you get side effects. 

So, if your blood values are way out of line then I understand taking a medication to help you stabilize them while you come from behind with some lifestyle changes to make it heal. I am all for it. Heck, we send people in need to other doctors all the time. Joint replacements, infections, cancer, heart issues. Two months ago I split my eye brow in two wiping out while waterskiing. It was a pretty nasty gash. I didn’t run to Dr. Jean-nope, that was an ER visit. Dr. Wnek was incredible. 

So you get the gist. There is a place for everything. Look at all these disciplines like tools. It isn’t the fault of the tool if you use it improperly. No different than many of our supplements. They are tools to help you achieve a better state of health. Have you ever noticed that health starts with heal?

To heal you have to be an active participant in the process, not a bystander just taking a pill (medicine or supplement). The supplements we use along with the life style changes will allow your body the best environment to heal itself. We feed and the body does the rest. 

If you need help clearing your path to health let us know. We can help you stablish a plan to decrease the number of tools you need. I do nutritional consults over lunch where I sit down with you, 1 on 1 and we come up a with a game plan to heal you from the inside out. Call the office to set that up! 

God Bless,
Dr. Dan

Testimonial

Kurt Bassuener, President of MWS Associates, Inc.

MWS Associates has leased office space in the Business Center since the inception of our company in 2018 and from 2015-2018 with the previous company that I worked for.  The Business Center was the clear choice for us to locate our main office for several reasons: location, cost effectiveness, reliable high-speed internet, services offered and full access to the conference room.  It truly offers everything our company needs to headquarter our business from without the hassle of owning our own office building with the maintenance, yard care and snowplowing that goes along with ownership.  

A major benefit for us is the ability to host in-person and online meetings in the newly renovated, state-of-the-art conference room.  COVID changed many aspects of our business with a major increase in online meetings being one of them.  Many companies struggled with technology issues to host or participate in online meetings with poor audio, video quality, background noise and unprofessional business settings negatively affecting meetings.  The size, layout and quality of the A/V equipment of the conference room now allows us to host annual company-wide in-person meetings as well. Every October we bring our entire staff in from around the country for weeklong meetings and the conference room comfortably allows us to host 20+ people.  The setting also allows us to host on-site meetings with key accounts.  Clients appreciate being able to combine a business trip with bringing their family to enjoy a few extra days to experience all Door County has to offer.
