At Ahead to Wellnness, we take great pride in providing the finest wellness care for people. Below is a sampling of the different services we offer in our Cerritos office.
Bio Cranial Healthcare
Dr. Augustine is a Bio Cranial specialist. This system of healthcare has profound implications. The brain and central nervous system are the healer and controller of the body. Since 80% of the nervous system is above the spine (inside the skull), what are doctors doing about that? Bio Cranial addresses healing from its source, by releasing and jump-starting the brain and central nervous system. Working with 80% of the nervous system is THE most powerful approach to enabling a person to heal. Dr. Augustine is not only a specialist in Bio Cranial, but he is also an instructor.
Chiropractic Care
We provide advanced spinal correction utilizing "state of the art" chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide this level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. James Augustine has over 20 years of training and experience in spinal adjusting.
Torque Release Technique
The “neurological” adjustment - Torque release bases its technique on gentle touch and light thrusting by instrument. This low-force adjusting method allows the nervous system to better integrate and understand the new corrective information and to process it throughout the spinal cord and brain.
Corrective Exercises - Applied Spinal Biomechanical Engineering (ASBE)
We teach our patients special "biomechanically efficient, corrective spinal maneuver" exercises designed by using ultra-high speed, weight-bearing stress x-rays of the spinal area of concern that is custom-designed to help re-strengthen deep, intrinsic (involuntary) postural muscles and therefore correct their own unique spinal biomechanical problem. These exercises take only minutes per day and can be performed in the comfort of your own home...no equipment necessary. This unique process of correction can save you time, money and it is proven to restore symmetrical spinal biomechanical function, with corresponding improvement in spinal symptoms.
Lifestyle Advice
We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each our patient is a whole person, and help them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.
Nutritional Counseling
We provide specific recommendations on whole-food nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to provide the tools for repair of one's own body and return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you Dr. James Augustine can provide a structured whole-food nutrient program based on your individual needs.
