What Makes Us Different

Here at Balanced Health Solutions, we say we're different (not necessarily better) than other choices you may have available to you.

The biggest differentiating factor is that we strive to discover the cause of your health problem.

For example, if you've been to other healthcare providers, there is a good chance they were focused solely on the symptom. And where has that gotten you? Chances are, if you are reading this webpage, it hasn't gotten you very far. You still have the symptoms that you want help with. You still suffer with them on a daily basis and you want help. Well, you have reached the right place.

Let' face it. Focusing on symptoms may not be the best strategy for your improved health. For example, let's say you have pain travelling down your left arm...is that necessarily a left arm problem? It could actually be a heart problem showing up as left arm pain. Can you see how only focusing on the symptom is not in your best interest?

Same thing applies to the many secondary conditions of which you may be experiencing. Treating the symptom may not do your body much good...in fact it may just prolong your suffering.

At Balanced Health Solutions, we are committed to finding the primary condition and treating that. (Think of the primary condition as the cause).

For example, the Primary Condition that I see most often in patients just like you is called: "Neuro-Disconnection Syndrome". In fact, there's a good chance you are unfamiliar with this term, so let's define it.

Neuro-Disconnection Syndrome (NDS) is a collection of findings that affect the functioning of the nervous system in a negative manner. And to be clear, it is the nerve system that CONTROLS the entire body. Basically, the nerve system (including the brain) are disconnected in terms of function and therefore has far-reaching negative impacts on the body.

When I am examining you, here are some of the common findings that I see that let's me know you indeed have NDS:

• A straightened cervical (neck) curve - we must keep in mind that this straightened curve causes the spinal cord to be stretched and therefore the messages coming from the brain to the body become distorted as they go to the rest of the body.
• Narrowed disc spaces - these narrowed disc spaces are signs that the spine is loosing it's disc material. Think of the discs as the shock absorbers.
• Damage to the spinal bones - oftentimes this damage occurs in the way of spurs, otherwise known as "osteophytes". When spurs are present in the spine, it let's me know your spine has been unstable for quite some time and is in need of serious help.
• Shifting of the spine, otherwise known as "translations" - this shifting is common and is easily found with a chiropractic analysis.
• Structural abnormalities - one of the tell-tale signs of NDS is a body that is structurally out of balance. For example, if your home was structurally not sound (due to a weak foundation), do you think that might affect your home in a negative manner? Same thing with your body. I take special notice of your structural body and determine if there are structural shifts that are causing your problems.  
• Abnormal neurological function - the explanation of neurological function is beyond the focus of this webpage, just know that we perform a detailed neurological analysis that will pinpoint the underlying neurological dysfunction lying in your brain and/or spinal cord. Patients often tell me that my exam procedures are the most comprehensive that they've ever had at any doctors' office. Once you visit me, I'm sure you will agree.
• Abnormal orthopedic findings - again, this is beyond the scope of this webpage; just know that we do our very best to discover what is CAUSING  your health problems.

Bottom line is, what makes us different is our comprehensive approach to correcting your health problem AND the fact that we don't let symptoms guide us in your care. We give you what you need based on our objective findings.

Because we are vastly different than other types of health care options available to you, we have many patients that travel far and wide to seek our services. Click here to get directions.
