As an essential service, I have stayed open during the
Shelter in Place order to serve those needing immediate care. Now that
restrictions are slowly being lifted I expect those of you who would like to
return to regular self-care through chiropractic treatment will start to
schedule. Please know that I am taking the following steps to insure your
health and safety:
This is the underlying question. You know it has been on
your mind, driving every other question you have had about what you should do,
what others should do and what the government should do. I’d like to give you a
new way of answering this question.
At this point, we know what we know and what we need to
discover about Covid-19 aka the Corona virus. We have some directives. The key
for both personal and community health, I believe, is not just in what we do,
but in our personal response to this crisis. Let’s say you are in a burning building
with no means of escape. You could either despair or prepare. It’s a situation
you have never been in, but with a cool head, you would figure something out. Then
you would hope for outside help knowing that you had done all you could. Your
chance of survival would be much greater than if you had panicked.
As a chiropractor, a week doesn’t go by without someone
asking if Arthritis can heal. Maybe they’ve been to their GP and gotten an
x-ray and the report says “degenerative changes” of this joint or that joint.
Or maybe they have a sore knee or back and their doctor just declares that they
are old and that’s the end of the story!
I am always amazed at the responsive nature of the body.
Arthritis starts with joint dysfunction. That means a joint is either not
moving well or is out of alignment. This causes inflammation and additional
wear and tear on the joint. Over time the smooth cartilage on the joint
surfaces gets roughed up. Does it ever sound like you have sand in the joints
of your neck? That’s called crepitus and it means your cartilage is getting
worn.
