What kind of health do you want?  Some people think that “being in good health” simply means “not feeling pain” or “not suffering any unusual symptoms.”  But today, more and more people want wellness, not merely a lack of sickness.

Wellness is for people who want to fully enjoy life.  Wellness is for people who understand that being at one’s best requires mental, emotional, and social well-being as well as physical health.  For these people, it’s not enough just to have “all the parts in working order.”  These people choose to maximize their vitality, their endurance, and their ability to take part in desired activities.

Wellness is the state of being physically, mentally, and spiritually fit.  It means being able to experience life to the fullest.

How can chiropractic care enhance wellness?

An essential part of wellness is maintaining a properly functioning nervous system.  Did you know that bones, nerves, muscles and connective tissues make up about 60% of your body?  Your chiropractor is a musculo-skeletal expert.  Chiropractic adjustments will keep your nervous system working at its best.  When your nervous system is functioning optimally, it’s easier for you to focus on maintaining your mental, spiritual and emotional well-being.  It will also provide you with endurance, flexibility and vitality.   Then you can enjoy activities that are meaningful to you.

Few things as complicated as your body can be “fixed up” and then ignored until the next bit of “damage” occurs.  We take our cars to mechanics for tune-ups.  And we go to dentists to have our teeth checked.  We address developing concerns before they become big problems.  People who want their nervous systems working at their best, visit their chiropractors for regular chiropractic checkups and maintenance.

Spinal adjustments are not the only thing your chiropractor does.  Your chiropractor can also help you with exercise recommendations, nutritional advice, and other practical tips.  Chiropractors help you achieve your wellness goals.

The good news is that you can start at any time.  Confirm your commitment to wellness today.  Schedule your next maintenance appointment at Sheppard Chiropractic Centre.  If you’ve never seen a chiropractor before, we would be honoured to accept you as a patient.  Call us today at (506) 635-8182 or (506) 847-7172.
