Dr. David Himmelstein, the Harvard study’s lead author and an associate professor of medicine said, “Unless you’re Bill Gates, you’re just one serious illness away from bankruptcy. Most of the medically bankrupt were average Americans who happened to get sick.”

Sixty-two percent of all personal bankruptcies are filed because of huge medical debt. And surprisingly, the study also showed that 78% of those who had to file bankruptcy because of medical debt had insurance.

Many of the top diseases can actually be prevented with a correct diet and exercise. Take advantage of this before it’s too late!

“Drugs never cure
disease. They merely hush the voice of Nature’s protest and pull down the
danger signals she erects along the pathway of transgression. Any poison taken
into the system has to be reckoned with later on even though it palliates
present symptoms. Pain may disappear but the patient is left in a worse
condition, though unconscious of it at the time.”

-Dr. Daniel Kress M.D.

“We are a chiropractic-based wellness team committed to raising the level of health in our community. Our goal is to educate, inspire, and positively influence the lives of those around us. We encourage our patients to participate in our most noble and important mission.”

This is the mission of everyone who works at Collins Chiropractic. But what exactly does it mean? How to we accomplish this mission?

Let’s break it down.

“We are a chiropractic-based wellness team…”

When people think of health and wellness, most people don’t automatically jump to chiropractic. But you would be amazed at how the spine and nervous system are interrelated and connected to every aspect of our health and wellness! When your spine is out of alignment, it is impossible for your nervous system to be healthy. Your nervous system controls everything in your body and your body can’t work very well with an unhealthy nervous system.

We are a wellness team centered around chiropractic because eating well and exercising isn’t enough to keep your nervous system healthy!

“…committed to raising the level of health in our community.”

We are outward focused. For us, it isn’t just about getting new patients. It’s about creating a community that pursues health whether at home or in the workplace. We want to create a healthy community for the next generation. We desire a safe place to raise our children to have healthy lives!

“Our goal is to educate, inspire, and positively influence the lives of those around us.”

How do we do this? By teaching and educating in every opportunity whether a seminar or a personal conversation inside or outside the office. By walking the walk, not just talking the talk. By showing people they don’t have to settle with mediocre, but they can have a vibrant and healthy life!

“We encourage our patients to participate in our most noble and important mission.”

Once our patients understand why chiropractic and wellness is important, we encourage them to pass on the message! Referring their spouse, getting their kids checked, and telling their loved ones about how to live long and healthy lives are just a few ways this can happen. Whatever the form, we hope that our patients take our mission and turn it into theirs. Together, we can impact the world in a great way!
