Q: I don’t know if holistic chiropractic can help me? Sometimes other healthcare professionals tell me not to see a chiropractor. “How do I know if holistic chiropractic can help?”
A: The only way that you will find out is to schedule an initial new patient appointment with Dr. Bob. Dr. Bob wouldn’t allow another healthcare professional to tell you not to see a holistic chiropractor. Other healthcare professionals didn’t attend a four year chiropractic college, and really don’t understand the healing philosophy of chiropractic. The training and philosophy of each medical practitioner and the schools that they attend is different in their ways of treating pain, injury, illness, disease. Chiropractors actually take more class hours in studying the body than any other healthcare practitioner, but if you choose to take more medications then maybe the medical route is for you. The choice is more about either waiting until your pain becomes a serious health problem, and then receive medications other invasive procedures or hospitalization or be more pro-active now and resist pain, injury, dysfunction, illness, disease.

What is “Holistic Chiropractic”?
A: Holistic Chiropractic is an intuitive understanding of how the physical, chemical and emotional dimensions of the body interact with each other, so that holistically, the body (referring to the physical & chemical aspects),and that of the mind and spirit, natural health and wellness can innately be manifested. If there may be 60,000 chiropractors throughout the world each chiropractor has his or her own particular personality / philosophy in doing chiropractic. There aren’t too many chiropractors that do chiropractic the same. There are over 75 different chiropractic techniques. Each chiropractor develops his or her own way of practicing chiropractic from the chiropractic college that they attended, and what each chiropractor thinks is best way for patient healing. Dr. Bob’s, holistic chiropractor, Salt Lake City, Utah, philosophy isn’t of repeated chiropractic treatments, which is common for many chiropractors. There is more to health, well-being and and healing & well-being than just receiving chiropractic adjustments!
There’s a holistic intermingling, consciousness and healing connection within our body-mind-spirit, which involves making better lifestyle choices like which foods to buy and where to buy them, how to best deal with life’s stresses, if exercise is right for you and which exercises are best for you. Oftentimes people think that they’re not working-out enough and they wind-up further exhausting their body energy system, and the body doesn’t have enough energy to heal. If you go shopping at a grocery store and purchase items in cans, boxes, bags, containers, soda drinks, and do not buy grass-fed meats, freshly-caught fish and are not buying as much organic as you can then you’re probably heading down the wrong path! I’d actually recommend buying food at non-grocery stores. These days you really cannot trust the labels on food that are sold in grocery stores. If you want to get a totally different perspective on what’s in our grocery stores see the video Food, Inc. People can either continue to live their lives the same way, or be more acknowledgeable and better informed to deal with unending new health challenges!

Q: What is Dr. Bob’s holistic chiropractic philosophy?
A: Dr. Bob believes that pain, illness, injury and suffering is a combination of different factors. It could be from:
- a person’s actual birthing process,
- trauma when you were in the womb,
- the different postures you had as an infant whether lying on your stomach, curled in your bed, or falling out of bed,
- how your posture was in grade school; how you may have slouched in chairs or sofas,
- falling off the monkey-bars in the school playground or landing on your back-side off the slide,
- tripping down some steps, falling on your back, or slipping on an iced driveway,
- being on your school’s cheering team and performing repeated landings on those wooden, cemented, asphalt surfaces,
- playing sports like football, wrestling, volleyball, swimming, fencing,
- skiing, wiping-out and crashing into a tree or ski slopes,
- falling off your bicycle, doing gymnastics, playing common repetitive injury-proned sports such baseball, softball, volleyball or golf,
- those slow moving car accidents when people often say, “Oh, nothing really happened in my car accident. I’m OK. I felt no pain“! A lot of those nothing really happened car accidents are during an initial period of trauma. Most people are so traumatized by the suddeness of a car accident, that they are unable to feel any pain or injury. It could take take several days or several weeks to begin to feel any soreness, stiffness, popping neck sounds, headaches following a car accident or even any other injury. That’s why it’s best to get checked by a holistic chiropractor soon after your accident,
- sitting at your computer / desk most of the day,
- gardening, putting in a patio, cleaning out your garage,
- painting your house, installing a bathroom or kitchen floor, or putting up dry-wall,
- working out in the gym too much, from doing the incorrect exercises, lifting weights improperly or not taking the right yoga class for your ability,
- experiencing stress with career, job, money, relationships, separations or divorce,
- experiencing forms of abuse: verbal, emotional, physical, sexual,
All of the above events can create pain (physical, emotional, chemical), illness, disease and suffering. We can either wait for a problem to reach significant pain levels or begin to get help as soon as reasonably possible. There are natural ways to relieve pain, injury, illness and disease rather than ingest medications with all their side-effects. When you see a pharmaceutical commercial on TV and it asks you to call your doctor to see if ” ______ “ is right medication for you even with it’s 15 different side-effects, why not instead do something natural to help yourself. Even though science tries to create new methods to control disease, the anti-resistant bacteria seem to be prevailing.

A: Your children can be checked to see if holistic chiropractic can benefit them. Children’s bodies are exposed to many environmental, physical, emotional and chemical harmful stimuli and stresses at school, in the playground, at home, and while playing different sports. Lessening the likelihood for obesity, diabetes and heart disease is best to monitor when children are in grade school.
