Enjoy the Side Effects of Chiropractic
The other day a practice member told me they couldn’t wait for their chiropractic appointment. They woke with a “kink” in their neck and knew they would feel better after a chiropractic adjustment. I love to hear how chiropractic is helping someone. And it’s not just “my back or neck pain has gone away or…

Paleo For Food Allergies
I have a 2 year old patient who has been getting adjusted for almost a year now. A few months back, I noticed that she had a runny nose or congestion nearly every time she came in. I mentioned this to her parents, who had said someone else had mentioned the same thing. Since she…

Ear Infections & Chiropractic
Most parents, at some point, have had to deal with ear infections in their children. My oldest had his first ear infection when he was around 2. He woke up in the middle of the night crying and rubbing his ear, not quite able to voice clearly what was going on. I was in chiropractic…

A Healthy Halloween
It’s that time of year again! The leaves are changing. The temperature is dropping. Our streets will soon be crowded with heroes and villains, celebrity look-a-likes, cops, fireman and, unfortunately, clowns. As Halloween approaches, many of us will be stocking up on sweet confectionary treats to pass out to the ghouls, ghosts and goblins that…

Drink Up!
We all know that we need to drink water. If you haven’t heard it from us, at Crossroads, then you’ve heard it from your primary care physician or even seen it on TV. Water is very important for the body’s survival. It is absolutely essential, for a number of reasons. Water helps nearly every system…

Community
Recently, while my wife and I went out to eat, I noticed a family of four sitting at the table across from us. All four were on some kind of electronic device. The parents were on their phones, both kids were on tablets. No talking, just electronics. (Mind you, my wife and I had just…
