Wellness Care Specialist
Wellness care means taking care of one’s health. It refers to adopting habits that ensure optimal health status, subdue emotional stress, and reduce the risk of ailments. It is vital to achieving wellness, which is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
Any disease of the spine eventually affects the overall health because of the critical nerves passing through it. Our licensed chiropractor in Tacoma helps to maintain a healthy spine through chiropractic treatments.
Chiropractic wellness care is based on a conservative, non-invasive approach. It supports the proper function of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, helping the body adapt to physical and environmental demands. When spinal movement and joint function are maintained, the body can respond more efficiently to stress and maintain balance.
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Bradley Eyford, D.C., to discuss how we can help you achieve optimal spinal health and prevent future discomfort.
How Lifestyle Affects Overall Wellness?
Have you ever wondered why two different people, when diagnosed with a particular condition, progress differently? And similarly, the response to the same treatment is also different? Or why certain disorders present at a younger age in some individuals. And at an older age in others, even when the risk factors are the same for both?
This is because environmental, social, genetic, and nutritional factors all play a major role in the development of diseases. All these constitute an individual’s lifestyle: where a person resides, the living conditions, the family history, the social and mental well-being, and what they eat.
Following a sedentary and unhealthy lifestyle eventually leads to chronic ailments, affecting a person’s overall wellness.
Benefits Of Wellness Care
Tacoma Chiropractic Health Connection clinic helps decrease the burden on the healthcare system. Our deep understanding of many diseases’ pathophysiology has established that pathology occurs not because of a single cause. Many factors play a role in its development and progression.
Wellness care limits the bad habits and triggering factors and, thus, the risk of chronic ailments. It educates people regarding the risk of diseases and morbidity and mortality associated with them. It eventually promotes healthy behaviors that reduce the economic and social burdens to help the nation flourish.
What Is Functional Medicine?
Traditional medicine treats the symptoms, whereas functional medicine directs the treatment towards the disease’s cause.
Functional medicine works on the principle of identifying the cause, separating triggers and exacerbating factors, and then treating them one by one.
It means if you are ill, we will listen to all your complaints in detail to understand what is making you sick.
Once the causes and triggers (like allergens, toxins, stress, poor nutritional balance, and genetics) are separated, we create a personalized care plan that fulfills your medical and dietary needs and achieves a healthy balance that cures the disease completely.
What Are The Advantages Of Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine has numerous benefits over traditional therapy as suggested by our Trusted Tacoma Chiropractor. Some of these are:
- The doctor’s detailed discussion about the disease gives the patient emotional comfort and satisfaction as the doctor listens to their concerns. This increases compliance with the treatment.
- It improves the doctor-patient relationship
- It treats using a holistic approach. The treatment plan addresses all the needs of an individual.
- Functional medicine does not rely on prescribing a list of medications for symptomatic improvement. It inherently starts with lifestyle modification and then adds medications if necessary.
- It reduces the risk of debilitating diseases and complications.
