What is Anti-Aging? Getting old isn't so bad but feeling old is! By the age of 35, bones and joints begin to feel stiff and painful.

By the age of 40 circulation and digestion can be compromised. And by the age of 50 loss of energy, stamina and mental clarity are common complaints. Genetics determine only about 35% of the aging process. You control the other 65%. Dr. Szarka, a member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging has been focused on reducing the risk and slowing the process of degenerative disease. Our AGEWELL program helps to identify the individual's risk, followed by a carefully outlined treatment plan for those risks. Depending on the patient's individual evaluation, needs and goals, your program will address a variety of different health issues.

Can you really prevent sports injuries? Chiropractic care helps restore function to the spinal and nervous system that are fixated, and not moving properly. Besides helping to relieve pain, chiropractic care can also help reduce inflammation.  Muscles, ligaments and tendons depend upon proper joint movement for peak performance. Professional sports teams, Olympic trainers, and competitive athletes are employing chiropractic doctors - because they demand results.

Nutrition.  Does it really matter?

The most important dietary foundation is to focus on the choice of  simple, natural, whole foods. Optimal body function requires a nutrient-dense environment in which to operate. Therefore, it is imperative to eat highly nutritious meals and minimize nutrient  "drainers". Damaging foods also slowly chip away at the integrity of the digestive system, leading to a multitude of dysfunctions. Nutrition Counseling can assist in helping to understand and live a healthier lifestyle that provides for optimum health.

Why should children get adjusted? Most Chiropractors' approach treating children differently than they do adults. Many times a child's adjustment can be done while sitting on their parents lap. The wonderful thing about children is they respond quickly to treatments and exercises, which help them to maintain wellness rather than crisis care. Studies have shown that children who undergo regular chiropractic care have fewer ear infections, allergies, cases of tonsillitis, and scoliosis and therefore they maintain a healthier lifestyle.

What is Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?

Traditional Chinese Medicine is the world's oldest medical treatment. TCM is based on the principal that our health depends on balanced functioning of the body's motivating energy, known as Qi (chee).  Practitioners of TCM do not look for the individual symptoms but rather the total picture of the patient. Acupuncture is perhaps the most recognized area of TCM; however Chinese herbal therapy, cupping and other treatments are also integral in the practice of TCM. Diseases treated by acupuncture include: Gynecological disorders, Gastrointestinal disorders, Allergies, Asthma,  Respiratory, Addictions, Pain, Circulatory issues, Infertility and many other conditions.
