Is it ok to see a Chiropractor if I am pregnant?

Posted by Dr. Siemers, May 18th , 2009.

Absolutely!  Imagine spending the better part of a year feeling as though you were carrying a couple of grocery bags around without ever having the chance to set them down.  Chiropractic adjustments not only help a mother handle the stresses associated with pregnancy but make delivering the newborn much easier for both themselves and the child.

Not only that, improving the functioning of your nervous system, the principle goal in chiropractic, allows for proper development of the child and gives it the best environment with which to develop and grow to express its normal state…healthy and happy!

In our office, the adjusting tables and techniques allow us to adapt to the mothers size, weight, age and condition of health.  Having helped many mothers carry, deliver and nurture newborns into the world, we can have no greater effect on humanity than to encourage mothers to make chiropractic a key player on their families health care team.

What Price Will You Pay?

Posted by Dr. Siemers, May 4th , 2009.

“If I have learned anything in long years of introspection, it is that life requires a price if you want to be as fully alive as you can be.  You need courage to pursue the truth of your life and yourself.”  Eda J. LeShan

Every day I’m reminded of the truth of this quote; whether through the lives of practice members or my own, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. We will or will not achieve health depending on what actions we will or will not take, it’s just that simple.  Everything has a price and when you don’t want to pay it one way you’ll pay it another.  If actively creating peace, exercising daily, getting proper rest, maintaining a deliberate and positive focus, eating nourishing foods, drinking life giving water and maintaining a clear neurological connection appear as to steep a price to pay for health, one should expect he will then pay instead with health crisis after health crisis that only get worse with time. The irony in all this is that it’s far easier to live a healthy life than it is an unhealthy one because health is our natural state.  Take a step toward health, then another, one at a time until it’s just the life your living.
