- 0:00Time now for we're back to the basics and healthcare with balanced life Chiropractic.
- 0:03We have doctor Harley joining us. Hey doing doctor Harley. Hey, Good
- 0:06morning John. I'm doing great. It feels like we're in the tropics today.
- 0:10I know, it's like a heat wave. It's above zero. People
- 0:12are outside with no coats on. For all you people out from coming out
- 0:16of state that come here, this is normal. Yeah, this is kind
- 0:19of what it usually is like. Really, it kind of is really feels
- 0:22warm. Yeah, but yeah, it does feel warm for us because now
- 0:25we've been you know, twenty thirty below zero. Now it's above which is
- 0:29nice. We've talked about so many things over the last couple of years.
- 0:33We've done this program each Wednesday for I don't know, two years, going
- 0:36on three years. How long have you been open? Almost four? I
- 0:39think three and a half, I think, yeah, so I think that
- 0:41we've been doing this like three years. But just because we've been talking that
- 0:45long doesn't mean everybody has heard every one of the programs. So let's kind
- 0:48of just briefly talk about chiropractic in general. So if there's somebody listening,
- 0:53but they hear us talk about this, but about that. Let's just kind
- 0:55of start from the beginning. And if I'm not super familiar with chiropractic,
- 0:59what, first of all, how do you even describe what that is?
- 1:02Right? That's a great question. And we've gone over so many different topics
- 1:06over the years, you know, maybe repeated a few things, but it
- 1:07always comes down to chiropractic can help with a lot of different things. And
- 1:11maybe you're waking up this morning and you're feeling sore and achy, all that's
- 1:15snow moving, you know, this is a great time to start looking into
- 1:18chiropractic if you've never been or it's been a while. You know, the
- 1:22new year's always a good time. Your insurance is always you know, returns
- 1:26like your copays and stuff of reset, so you've got some benefits you can
- 1:29use. So if you didn't know that, chiropractic can be covered by your
- 1:32insurance based on you know, where you're at and care and all these different
- 1:34factors. But so it really just starts with reaching out to a chiropractor and
- 1:38getting set for a new patient appointment. Now every chiropractic office is a little
- 1:42bit different, but our office we really focus on trying to find the rough
- 1:47cause of your problems, you know, so we do a pretty thorough health
- 1:49consultation because we want to understand, you know, what's going on, how
- 1:53long these issues have been there. It's a little bit slower process, but
- 1:56once we get through all of that, then the adjustings a lot quick.
- 2:00And the thing that I would relate that to is like when you go to
- 2:02a mechanic and you go, it's making this weird noise. You know,
- 2:06they could just start changing things, guessing well, maybe it's this or maybe
- 2:08it's not, but some of them will hook it up to a machine and
- 2:12do diagnostics and figure out, oh, hey, according to the machine,
- 2:15this is what the issue is. And then they just fix that one thing
- 2:17and then your car's fixed a lot quicker. Right. You could be quit
- 2:22chiropractic kind of to like that, because we're trying to figure out where's the
- 2:24problem at in your body. Yes, you're having pain somewhere, or you're
- 2:28having stiffness or some issue some symptom. Now we're not just going to chase
- 2:31the symptom. We're going to figure out where's causing that problem to happen.
- 2:35It could be somewhere completely unrelated to where you're feeling. The pain at So
- 2:38that's why it's important for us to take the time to figure out where that
- 2:43problem is before we start adjusting. And what the adjusting is is we're working
- 2:46to realign your spine, putting it back into where it should be at versus
- 2:51it's shifted out of alignment. It's you know, affecting the muscles the nerves
- 2:54around it, and a lot of times that's where you're noticing pain. So
- 2:58we're adjusting those areas is to help them move better. That's going to take
- 3:01the tension off that section and things are going to actually start functioning better.
- 3:06You're gonna have less pain, you're gonna have better mobility in the long runer,
- 3:09you're gonna have better health and healing as well. And one of the
- 3:12things that I really like is we've been not only talking on the radio,
- 3:15but when we come and visit with doctor Harley, we also get adjusted and
- 3:20I've noticed a big difference. And it's crazy to me how you know,
- 3:23it doesn't take a long time. It's a little bit of an adjustment,
- 3:27but then over the course of the next week, I feel so much better.
- 3:30And there are times that we have to miss an appointment for one reason
- 3:34or another, and I'm like, oh, I can definitely tell I missed
- 3:36an appointment. When you're used to where your alignment should be at in your
- 3:39body, like, you start to learn what your normal should be, so
- 3:43when things do shift out of linement, you can already identify, Okay,
- 3:46this doesn't feel right, I should probably get taken care of. Versus if
- 3:49you haven't ever been adjusted. Your body's used to where things are at right
- 3:52now, so that's kind of the normal. I'm using air quotes on the
- 3:55radio. Right, you can't see my fingers, but you know, as
- 4:00you start getting adjusted, things are going to feel different. You might feel
- 4:01worse because your body's learning a new normal what it actually should be at.
- 4:06We get our body gets comfortable where things are, even if it's not where
- 4:10they actually really need to be or should be at. If somebody listening has
- 4:14gone, okay, I'm intrigued. I'd like to know more about this.
