Genetically Modified Foods (GMOs)

Genetically modified foods may be associated with allergies, immune problems, faulty insulin regulation, and other health problems---the bottom line is, we don't really know for sure. The long term effects aren't fully understood. In addition, many GMO crops are designed to resist herbicides and pests, so they are loaded with toxic residues. Wouldn't you like to know whether a food contains GMOs, so you make a choice of whether to eat it or not? An initiative on the CA ballot will allow people to vote to require LABELING of GMO foods.

Joint Pain

Joint pain can make you miserable. If your joints are not moving properly (fixated or stuck), or are out of their proper juxtaposition (misaligned), this can be comfortably and precisely corrected with ACTIVATOR chiropractic. Many people find that it helps to stop eating things that may be aggravating joint pain or causing inflammation.

Chondromalacia Patella

Chondromalacia patella is an often painful "crunching" under the kneecap. It's a form of osteoarthritis, and is often related to abnormal tracking of the kneecap as it moves when you bend your knee. It can be treated by precise, directional ACTIVATOR chiropractic adjustments, and exercises should be given to help correct the tracking of the kneecap.

Disc Degeneration

Disc degeneration may be a result of abnormal biomechanical stresses, including injury. Proper care, including appropriate, low-force chiropractic; nutritional support; ergonomic counseling; exercises and stretches, can help slow or halt the degenerative process.

Facet Compression

Facet compression in the spine can be very painful. The facets are the parts of the vertebrae that actually touch ( the vertebral bodies are separated by the discs). When the facets get "jammed," the muscles and other soft tissue in the area may become tense and inflammed. This needs precise ACTIVATOR chiropractic adjustments to relieve.
