AVONDALE, PA - May 17, 2011 - The doctors at Thrive Chiropractic Studio are passionate about health and wellness. The husband and wife team of Dr. Greg and Dr. Jodi Parsons has made it their personal mission to educate as many people as possible about what health really is, how to achieve it, and how to keep it once you're gotten it. When they are not busy with their chiropractic studio in Avondale, they are talking to businesses, local groups, churches, and any other organization that is interested in having them share valuable health-related information. They are always striving to get the "wellness" message out to more people.
It was for this reason that Drs. Parsons decided to host Southern Chester County's First Annual Community Wellness Day. "We want more people to understand what it means to be truly healthy," Dr. Greg says. "Health and wellness are not just about feeling good," says Dr. Jodi. "True wellness is about all aspects of life - physcial, mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial - operating at 100%." Dr. Greg adds, "Someone can feel good, but still be very sick. You just can't base your health on how you 'feel' at any given moment. It's just so much more than that."

In addition to wanting to raise the awareness of health and wellness in their community, Dr. Greg and Dr. Jodi are also very passionate about giving back to their community. They are very touched and inspired by the work that the Garage Youth Center does with teens in Southern Chester County, and want to see that work continue. All net proceeds from Community Wellness Day will go to help the Garage open their newest facility in West Grove.
Vendors from all areas of wellness will be on hand to share information. The day will feature free health screenings, free posture analyses, Safe Kids Chester County will be performing car seat checks, NY Life will be doing child ID kits, The COAD Group will be sharing information about drug and alcohol services in Chester County, Form Healthy Habits will be talking about green cleaning, Bertucci's Italian Restaurant will be providing FREE food and Herr's Foods will have snacks for everyone, to mention just a few. The event will also feature free face painting and games for the children and great door prizes!
