Dr. Julia Asks some important questions of interest to Worthington residents - Chiropractor Worthington Dr. Julia Asks...

Can chiropractic relieve PMS?
If you have subluxations, especially in the lower spine that impair nerves that direct and monitor the reproductive and hormonal systems, chiropractic could be helpful. Undetected subluxations may also be responsible for pelvic pain, incontinence, sexual dysfunction and even infertility. Maybe chiropractic can help. Find out!
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Worthington parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.

Chiropractic and the Aging Process

Lots of research documents the benefits of chiropractic care, not only for back and neck pain, but as a complementary health care option to maintain proper functioning of all your body parts. And while regular chiropractic care can enhance everyone’s lifestyle, consider how chiropractic care improves the overall quality of life for those enjoying their “Golden Years.”

A September 2004 document titled Chiropractic and Geriatrics: Care for the Aging, submitted by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) to the White House Conference on Aging, provides a number of significant reasons why the senior population should integrate chiropractic care as a component of their health care. The report concludes that:

“In a rapidly aging society, doctors of chiropractic, (along with other health professionals) are well suited to provide optimal health care to this important segment of our society and assist them in maintaining active, quality-based lifestyles.”
