As a Los Angeles area Alternative Medicine practitioner, my job is to find and release interference to your body's innate ability to heal and function properly. I emphasize a very important distinction, and that is that the body treats, heals and cures, not me. The real doctor in this equation is you!
I began practice in 1988 as a Cerritos Chiropractor working with people in need locally around Orange County, Pasadena, Long Beach etc. and have since pursued innovative and profound ways to bring health and wellness to people.
Our practice is based upon three principles:
- The body is a self-healing organism.
- The nervous system controls and coordinates ALL cells, tissues, organs and systems within the body.
- If there is interference to this system (nervous system) then problems arise in the body (health challenges)
Foundationally, my job is to find and release this interference, and the body heals itself.
I began practice in 1988 and have pursued innovative and profound ways to bring health and wellness to people. My story…my mother passed away in May of 1997. Leading up to this was a grueling story of pain and suffering. She first began with bladder cancer in her late 40's, followed by Rheumatoid arthritis. She was on major medications just to reduce the pain enough to be able to function. She bounced around from one medication to another, never getting anywhere with her health. Then Diabetes set in, so now insulin. It was a never-ending battle, all the while, a downward spiral of failing health. My wife and I moved into my parents' house to care for mom the last 2 years of her life. At this point, she was beyond repair. As I watched and helped take care of my mother, I was overwhelmed with despair. She finally passed away, one morning, from a bowel obstruction. She was so feeble that it could not be corrected with surgery. So we had to just stand by and watch her fill up on food and drink and literally drown to death.This was a great turning point in my career. I NEVER want to see another person go through what my mother went through. It gives me great motivation and passion to encourage, coach and bring people out of sickness and disease. As a result, I want to provide the most powerful solutions for creating wellness.
