Asthma Awareness Month28 Feb

Imagine not being able to run, or play, or living in fear of being unable to take a deep breath.  Imagine being literally tied to medication, medication that may cause you to develop cataracts, or to not be able to fight off simple illnesses, or develop osteoporosis.  Medicine that damages your lungs every time that [...]

Dodging Bugs04 May

Hey everyone, hope you’re having a great start to your week. If you’re like me your probably sick of hearing about the swine flu.  Dr. McKinley wrote a great piece about it last week.  In it he mentioned that one of the events that put Chiropractic on the map was the Flu epidemic of 1917-1918.  [...]
