Nutrition

In 2008 we added Dr. Judy Swain as a permanent member of our team. Dr. Judy is a 2007 graduate from Northwestern Health Sciences University and is certified as a chiropractor in the U.S. and in Canada. She comes with a lifetime interest in dance and exercise, a background in massage, training in Active Isolated Stretching, has studied with the Pettibon Institute, interned in the Pettibon Technique, and is keenly interested in the ‘soft tissue’ aspect (i.e., muscle, tendon, ligament) of postural correction.  

Dr. Judy also provides Nutritional Medicine in our office while she is completing her studies in functional medicine. This principal is based on the core belief that our bodies are self-healing and our food is our best medicine. Most health problems are actually the body’s normal responses to abnormal conditions. Since the body has an impressive ability to heal itself, overturning all kinds of acute and chronic problems when we change those conditions, Dr. Judy teaches us how to enhance our structural changes with functional changes. By using specific assessment tools, high quality nutritional supplements, and changes in food habits, (all well researched and clinically tested to be effective) many common and uncommon ailments can be reduced or resolved. Look to her for help with stubborn weight gain, psoriasis, irritable bowel syndrome, asthma, allergy, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. Your good health can also be protected or enhanced by adopting the same principles. Hope is right here.
