Independence from Pain


As this issue is being sent, folks everywhere are wrapping up the long 4th of July holiday. Some are sitting in traffic while others are enjoying the last day of a stay-at-home staycation. No matter how you celebrated, I hope you enjoyed the summer's biggest, most "explosive” holiday.


Independence IS certainly something to celebrate. Today I am thinking about independence and freedom from pain. The featured article focuses on an important topic that relates to the chiropractic side of our services. It describes recent research that shows the significance of spinal adjustments in reducing opiod use. While opiods may be useful for short-term relief, we are now keenly away of the grave consequences that can come from their use, including the theft of both independence and dignity.


It is my mission to help you and those you love remain as vibrant, healthy, and happy as possible .. to remain independent. This requires treatment that acknowledges every individual as unique and treatment that aims to correct the condition, not mask a problem.


We’re here to help,

Dr. Pfeiffer

It’s Time to Reduce Opiod Prescriptions

by Dr. Pfeiffer


You’ve heard of the troublesome class of pain medications called opiods. They attach to nerve cells to interrupt the pain signals in the brain and are often used to provide relief from moderate to severe pain in short-term situations such as surgery or to manage long-term chronic conditions such as cancer. But the benefits of the relief these presecriptions can provide have been overshadowed by a national afflication.


Click here to read more about recent research that has demonstrated that chiropractic adjustments significantly reduce dependency on pain medications.

EVENTS

Planning Ahead for Spring 2025.

Save Your Spot Now!

As you know, we have made significant updates to our Cleanse program, which is now known as “The Crave Clinic.


We will be continuing to improve the program during the remainer of 2024. That means we will not be holding our Fall Crave Clinic in 2024.


Given this news, we expect the Spring 2025 class to fill even more quickly than usual. Additionally, as the good news of recent participant outcomes spreads, the demand will likely outpace the limited class size.


Thus, in lieu of the Fall class, we are accepting reservations for our Spring 2025 Crave Clinic with a $50 deposit now.
