The Benefits

Prepare your body for pregnancy through preconception chiropractic care and personalized nutrition therapy, to provide essential whole body benefits such as:

Improved Fertility:

Our body’s central nervous and endocrine systems are intricately connected by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. “Getting adjusted” takes the stress off of your HPA access and the greater nervous system, and helps improve your fertility. Proper physical alignment allows for optimal nerve flow from your brain, through your spine, to your reproductive organs. Supporting with nutrition therapy will “build up” your body to prepare for the demands of pregnancy, and allow for optimal HP-axis connection.

Nutrition Response Testing is a non-invasive system of analyzing the body in order to determine the underlying causes of ill health. When these are corrected through safe, natural, nutritional means, the body can repair itself in order to attain and maintain more optimum health.

As you probably know, research shows that most people are deficient in nutrients. Even if we consciously strive to eat a healthy diet, we still lack nutrients due to the reduced quality of food available to us.

These deficiencies will eventually cause symptoms and health problems if not remedied. Proper nutrition can greatly improve the body’s ability to hold a chiropractic adjustment and further the healing process.
