One of Dr. Mike’s favorite chiropractic quotes is from BJ Palmer, “Have you more faith in a knife or a spoonful of medicine than in the innate power that animates the internal living world?”
The name of our clinic is ADIO which stands for Above Down Inside Out. It’s how the body heals. The nervous system which consists of the brain, spinal cord and nerves control everything in the human body. When it comes to the spine, the 24 movable segments are protecting that lifeline between the brain and the body.
It’s no secret that the health of the spine is incredibly important to the overall function within the body and the body’s ability to heal itself. Even Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, said, “Look well to the spine for the cause of disease.” Adjusting the spine improves overall function within the body.
Dr. Mike tells people, “Your heart is beating, your lungs are breathing and your stomach is digesting food-are you having to tell it to do those things?” That popular brand of triple antibiotic ointment doesn’t heal the cut; your body does. The cast doesn’t heal your broken arm-your body does. The cast just sets it where it needs to go.
We want to empower people to have more faith in their body’s innate ability to heal!
It’s been said that when people take medication they have to heal twice- once from the disease or sickness, they’re taking medication for and secondly is to heal from the medication itself. Most medications come with a host of adverse side effects.
We’ve made it our mission to teach people about this principle of healing. Our bodies only heal one way-ADIO. We’re such an outside-in culture/society; we take a pill for every ill. Your body can actually heal most things. Of course, there’s a time and place for drugs and surgery, but it shouldn’t automatically be the first go-to.
