Building Your Wellness Team Part 1
Everyone needs a team.
Your family and friends make up your team.
The people you work with are your team.
And you need a Wellness Team to have the highest levels of health.
I would say the most important criteria is having a health professional who listens and cares and is in alignment with your health values.
Chiropractor – the goal of a Chiropractor is to ensure your central nerve system and spine (which controls the way you feel and function on a muscular and organ level) is as strong as healthy as possible. Your Chiropractor will also guide you with exercise and nutrition tips to help your nerve system operate at the highest levels. Over time besides feeling better – you would also expect more energy, better sleep, enhanced flexibilty, greater sense of calm and sharper focus. Chiropractors will usually recommend gentle and natural ways to help the body heal and get stronger – and see medications and surgery as necessary but only after all natural options have been exhausted.
Medical Doctor – will help with your overall health and a good resource for getting tested (ie. blood tests, MRI and CT Scans). Also your first line of defense in emergency situations (ie. heart attacks, fractures, cuts and burns) and can help you naviagate with chronic conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes and cholesterol.
The key again is finding a medical doctor who can tell you the truth but is also respectful of your thoughts and questions. A compassionate Doctor can be sensed witin seconds. One who can truly inspire you to make better health choices.
Naturopath – can help find natural ways to improve your health and may focus on nutrition, supplements, homeopathic remedies or even acupuncture. Again feeling comfortable with a naturopathic doctor like any other health professional is critical. A naturopath may be able to help with weight issues, hormonal issues or even allergy and skin issues.
Next week I will go into Part 2 of Your Wellness Team.
