The human vessel is absolutely incredible!  My fascination with Anatomy and Physiology began my senior year of high school in 1996.  I wanted to take an Anatomy class because as a child and adolescent I suffered from recurrent digestive, respiratory, and autoimmune illnesses.  I was given medicine for each complaint which seemed to fix the symptoms, but later I would be sick again.  Why did these things keep happening? What else was the cause other than bacteria or a virus?  Why would a growing child need to suffer from abdominal pain and loose their breath after 5 minutes of running?  My curiosity led me to explore biology and physiology more in-depth, because I needed to understand the machine I was living in.   The mechanisms in place for each function of our body are absolute perfection and designed to keep the system in balance at all times.  So what is happening when we fall out of that balance? What happens to make our body enter a state of Dis-Ease?  The search for how to PREVENT imbalance led to me study the art and science of Chiropractic.  Come chat with me if you want to know why this is the profession I chose and never looked back.
