Total Body Health for the Whole Family

2015 has been a wonderful year thus far for Stanford Chiropractic in Palo Alto California. The focus for our practice is to RETHINK HEATH, starting with, Healthy Pregnancies, Healthy Babies, and Healthy Families.

Healthy individuals, We offer an invitation to the Palo Alto community to help us reach our goal to have all families come for a total body wellness check up.

Many of you come in alone or bring only one of your children into our practice for chiropractic care. We will work hard for the rest of the year to teach and educate you on why your whole family needs chiropractic care.

At Stanford Chiropractic, Dr. Gavin Carr and staff, take the "whole person" approach in chiropractic care, which means looking for the underlying causes of disease, discomfort, and pain, as opposed to just treating the symptoms.

We understand chiropractic care is not a luxury or frivolous want, but rather a need!

We have covered in a recent Blog Birth Can be a Pain in the Neck about the physical trama of birth to both the infant and the mother. We highlighted the power of ensuring each child has proper alignment for the highest opportunity for total body health.

We know as each person child grows and the levels of activity they enjoy, it is imperative to have regular checkups to maintain the health of their nervous system. But you may ask, is chiropractic treatment appropriate for children?

According to the American Chiropractic Association the answer is Yes.

"Children can benefit from chiropractic care. Children are very physically active and experience many types of falls and blows from activities of daily living as well as from participating in sports. Injuries such as these may cause many symptoms including back and neck pain, stiffness, soreness or discomfort. Chiropractic care is always adapted to the individual patient. It is a highly skilled treatment, and in the case of children, very gentle."

As parents we all want our children to be healthy. Guess what? The nervous system directly impacts the immune system and directly impacts our children and families health.

Many adults who are seen in our office can report after seeing their x-rays that they realize their problems started when they were young. They may have had some type of trauma whether it was chemical, physical, or emotional. Our vision is to have each of your family members to be regularly checked for subluxations.

Your family wellness chiropractor is the only person who is trained to detect and correct vertebral subluxations. At Stanford Chiropractic we become life long partners in your health and want to partner with you in your care. Each month we hold an education series that will focus on a different health topic to help advance and promote the family wellness lifestyle and create healthier families for all of the families in the Palo Alto community.

We believe our patients are empowered by understanding how their bodies function optimally and by implementing best practices to support this level of wellness and health in their daily lives. We hope to see to all soon. Come Visit us today and get started on your family plan for Health. It’s time to #RethinkHeath!.
