Back To Our Roots
This month, we're simplifying. Getting back to our roots and looking at what we need. Not what we desire but our basic needs. Let's remove all the interference, all the clutter and look at our roots. We need to breathe. We need to nourish ourselves. We need to laugh. We need to love. We need to heal.
Each one of us differs from the next. You are a completely unique organism. You are not your symptoms. You are much more than that. We cannot treat you like a list of symptoms. We must also treat each person with individuality. You may have a similar diagnosis as someone else but because you are 100% unique, we must treat you that way. This goes along with our thinking that you are more than the sum of your parts. You are a whole being and when we treat you, we approach the whole body. This is the holistic mindset.
There is a gap between the Western medicine health model and the Complementary and Alternative Medicine health model (CAM) that we are trying to bridge. CAM therapies do this in a holistic approach. By not seeing you as a laundry list of symptoms and medications, instead by seeing you as a whole person who wants to live in good health. CAM doctors and therapist not only use our extensive schooling and training, but by utilizing our common sense. If it doesn't sound right, we question until we find the root cause. The presentations, or the symptoms, are not what are causing the ailment or disease. The body has an innate ability to heal itself. The Central Nervous System manages the entire body and we facilitate the CNS to work properly. When your healthcare is addressed this way, the hope is you in turn will continue on this path once you walk out the One Life office doors. Monthly, we put out our newsletter as well as information around the office to help you reach your health goals. The more you walk the walk with us, the better chance you have of not falling victim to any unhealthy genes you may have inherited, as well as handing down quality health traits and habits to our future generations.
We understand that adopting a self health care policy versus a sick care perspective can be overwhelming. Remember, it is the cumulative efforts of many that are needed to make these changes and it all starts with one step. Having a positive result in one category causes the desire to take the next step. We see our practice as a coach - helping you prioritize and map out your path, step by step. We understand that making those choices, those steps can be confusing, there's a lot of misleading and contradictory information. We want you to ask us your questions. We want to use our tools to help you help yourself. We understand and respect the fact that on this path, you have One Body, One Life, One Choice....Health.
In good health naturally, Dr. Kristy Allen |
