  Speaker 1: Time nowt for we're back to the basics and healthcare
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: with balanced life chiropractic. We have doctor Harley joining us.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Hey doing doctor Harley.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Hey, Good morning John. I'm doing great. It feels like
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: we're in the tropics today.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: I know it's like a heat wave. It's above zero,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: but yeah, it does feel warm for us because now
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: we've been you know, twenty thirty below zero. Now it's
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: above which is nice. We've talked about so many things
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. We've done this program
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: each Wednesday for I don't know, two years, going on
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: three years. How long have you been open?
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Almost four? I think three and a half.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I think yeah, so I think that we've been doing
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: this like three years. But just because we've been talking
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: that long doesn't mean everybody has heard every one of
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the programs. So let's kind of just briefly talk about
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: chiropractic in general. So if there's somebody listening but they
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: hear us talk about this, but about that, let's just
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: kind of start from the beginning. And if I'm not
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: super familiar with chiropractic, what, first of all, how do
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: you even describe what that is? Right?
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: That's a great question, and we've gone over so many
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: different topics over the years, you know, maybe repeated a
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: few things, but it always comes down to chiropractic can
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: help with a lot of different things. And maybe you're
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: waking up this morning and you're feeling sore and achy,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: all that's snow moving. This is a great time to
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: start looking into chiropractic if you've never been or it's
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: been a while. You know, the New year's always a
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: good time. Your insurance is always you know, returns like
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: your copays and stuff of reset, so you've got some
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: benefits you can use. So if you didn't know that,
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: chiropractic can be covered by your insurance based on you know,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: where you're at and care and all these different factors.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: So it really just starts with reaching out to a
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: chiropractor and getting set for a new patient appointment. Now
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: every chiropractic office is a little bit different, but our
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: office we really focus on trying to find the cause
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: of your problems. So we do a pretty thorough health
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: consultation because we want to understand, you know, what's going on,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: how long these issues have been there. It's a little
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: bit slower process, but once we get through all of that,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: then the ingustings a lot quicker.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: And the thing that I would relate that to is
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: like when you go to a mechanic and you go,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: it's making this weird noise. You know, they could just
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: start changing things, guessing well, maybe it's this or maybe
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: it's not, but some of them will look it up
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: to a machine and do diagnostics and figure out, oh, hey,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: according to the machine, this is what the issue is.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: And then they just fix that one thing, and then
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: your cars fixed a lot quicker. Right.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: You could be quick chiropractic kind of to like that,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: because we're trying to figure out where's the problem at
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: in your body as you're having pain somewhere, or you're
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: having stiffness or some issue some symptom. Now, we're not
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: just going to chase the symptom. We're gonna figure out
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: where's causing that problem to happen. It could be somewhere
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: completely unrelated to where you're feeling the pain at. So
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: that's why it's important for us to take the time
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: to figure out where that problem is before we start adjusting.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: And what the adjusting is is we're working to realign
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: your spine, putting it back into where it should be
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: at versus it's shifted out of alignment. It's affecting the
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: muscles the nerves around it, and a lot of times
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: that's where you're noticing pain. So we're adjusting those areas
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: to help them move better. That's going to take the
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: tension off that section, and things are going to actually
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: start functioning better. You're gonna have less pain, you're gonna
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: have better mobility in the long runer, you're gonna have
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: better health and healing as well.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that I really like is
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: we've been not only talking on the radio, but when
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: we come and visit with doctor Harley, we also get
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: adjusted and I've noticed a big difference. And it's it's
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: crazy to me how you know, it doesn't take a
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: long time. It's it's a little bit of an adjustment.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: But then over the course of the next week, I
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: feel so much better. And there are times that we
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: have to miss an appointment for one reason or another,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, I can definitely tell I missed
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: an appointment.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: When you're used to where your alignment should be at
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: in your body, like you start to learn what your
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: normal should be. So when things do shift out of alignment.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: You can already identify Okay, this doesn't feel right, I
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: should probably get taken care of versus if you haven't
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: ever been adjusted, your body's used to where things are
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: at right now, so that's kind of the normal. I'm
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: using air quotes on the radio. Right. You can't see
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: my fingers, but you know, as you start getting adjusted,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: things are going to feel different. You might feel worse
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: because your body's learning a new normal what it actually
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: should be at. We get our body gets comfortable where
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: things are, even if it's not worthy actually really need
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: to be or should be at.
• 4:01
