What is the Underlying Cause of What You Are Feeling?

Imagine an iceberg that is barley sticking out of the water. From above it looks simple to steer your boat clear of by only paying attention to the surface of the water…but is it true that we could be missing a dangerous obstacle underneath the surface?

In today’s healthcare system, the primary focus is to reduce symptoms. With that type of focus, we will only continue to see the same results appearing (such as that of the tip of the iceberg) and not the underlying cause of what you are feeling (such as the obstacle underneath the water). Physicians today are unable to train all individuals how to eat healthy, exercise, avoid harmful toxins, and address the effects of a spinal abnormalities so instead they do what they know how to do best; prescribe medication and perform surgery… which in the end is only reducing a symptom and not the underlying cause.

So, What is the Underlying Cause of What You Are Feeling?

Our body is capable of sending out and array of signals to let us know that something is not right. Whether this signal is through pain, fatigue, or headaches, the purpose of the signals is to let us know that something is wrong that needs to be fixed. The tendency is to fix that specific symptom when in reality we need to identify the cause of that symptom. In some cases, structural shifts in the spine are leading to neurological communication errors which can be the result of underlying issues that are preventing you from functioning at your highest.

Shifting our goal from treating symptoms to looking into the body’s natural healing capacity and why it is not functioning 100% properly can save us from excessive amounts of unnecessary prescriptions and surgeries. A chiropractic checkup at our Meridian chiropractic office is a great way to determine the underlying issue that you may be suffering from.  When you are ready, we are here to help.
