  Speaker 1: Time now for back to the basics and healthcare with
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Balanced Life Chiropractic, and we have doctor Harley with us. Hello,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: doctor Harley. How's it going, John, It's going fantastic. Last
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: week we talked kind of about the broad strokes of
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: here's what chiropractic is. Now, let's talk a little more
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: about balanced life chiropractic, because then I walk in, You've
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: got a very specific layout, and you designed the layout
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: for this space so that you did it on purpose.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Didn't you. Yeah, I mean I can't take all the
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: credit for myself. I was part of a network of
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: student doctors and doctors around the country that they all
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: kind of shared best practice procedures and what they really
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: liked in their offices, so you kind of got to
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: pick and choose. I shadowed a lot of chiropractic offices
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: while I was in chiropractic school, just kind of deciding
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: what I liked. And you know, the office is set
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: up in a way that makes it good for like
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: office flow, you know, moving new patients through the exam
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: rooms and X rays into the adjusting room, or with
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: our type of adjusting, it's a little bit faster than
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: you know, we're not thirty minute blocks every single time,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: so I've never booked out, you know, weeks out because
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: that timeslot's really busy, so we're able to move a
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: little faster between patients. I joke sometimes kind of like
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: a NASCAR pit stop. Yeah, you know, we're doing a
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: lot of work in a quick time, but then your
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: body is taking all that information to work on healing
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: and helping itself, because at the end of the day,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: that's really what we as chiropractors are doing, is helping
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: how your body helps itself, how it's healing, and you know,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: sometimes it just gets bogged down and needs that extra
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: little boost to get through whatever's going on.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that I really like is
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: speaking of you were talking about NASCAR. We'll kind of
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: keep along those. There are also is like some diagnostic
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: checkups along the way, so you'll you'll have a chance
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: to utilize technology on the other side of the hall
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: over here in room A, B, and C. And I
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: think that that's really fascinating too, because it gives us
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: a chance to see kind of the progress of how
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: things are going.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one thing for you as the patient to
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: tell me, I've got all this stuff going on. You know,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: I feel like my issue is coming from here. By
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: using this technology, we can actually kind of pinpoint a
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: little bit more where the problem is stemming from. Sometimes
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: where your pain is at is not exactly where the
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: cause of the problem is. I was thinking of kind
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: of our spine like a bunch of guys on a
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: job site. If you have one guy slacking off, he's
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: probably not making a lot of noise. He doesn't want
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: you to pay attention to him. But everyone else is
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: complaining and they're mad because they're having to work harder. Yeah,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: so if we just chase where you know, the pain
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: is at, we might miss really where the underlying issue.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: So we have a nerve scan that looks at where
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: your body's holding your stress at or where that nerve
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: irritation and inflammation is. And the other one is the
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: muscle assessments. We can see how active or underactive.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Your muscles are.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: So if you are going to the chiropractor, pt, massage, stretching,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: extra all these things, they're like, it's not getting any
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: better or it just keeps coming back. Oh, maybe that's
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: not really what the cause of the problem is. You know,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: we can see that those muscles are overworking and just
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: pulling things right back to what they like.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: And then one of the things in the back, there's
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: also X rays back there, and that has been kind
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: of fascinating to watch over the course of time because
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: that gets see, you know, the curvature of my spine
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and the way my head is held. And then we'll
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: see the next one and you're like, look at the
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: difference that that's made from chiropractic care. So I think
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that's really cool to be able to visually see that
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: with my own eyes.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Right, you know, we're supposed to have some curvatures along
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: our spine and our day to day lifestyle, we lose
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: a lot of those because we have poor posture or
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: you know, we had a fall or an injury and
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: so we're compensating. So we can see that from a
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: structural standpoint, how's that affecting your actual spine or the
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: dispass or your hips, and all of that information together
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: it really gives us a bigger picture of what is
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: going on and also what's it going to take to
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: work on correcting these issues, because sometimes those structural components
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: have been there for a long time that it's going
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: to take more time to work on, you know, undoing
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: the damage that's been done.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: If somebody listening is going, hey, I would like to
• 3:50
