A couple of years ago, one of our neighbours named Joan, received a phone call from her nephew in the U.S. He said that he had been in a motorcycle accident and was in the hospital needing money. Joan’s heart started racing, a flurry of thoughts raced through her mind and her stomach was churning. She ended up sending her …
Think different.
This tagline was one of the main ways that Apple distinguished itself from its main competitor, the juggernaut Microsoft. And it was when I first attended Chiropractic school that I learned that there was a different way of thinking about health. I grew up I think like most people, going to the medical doctor when I had symptoms of a …
We are all in this together
One of the things I’ve been reflecting on with this social crisis has been the message of “We’re all in this together”. On the surface it sounds really good. It feels coherent with Canadian values of respect, caring and goodness. And it impresses upon each one of us that by adhering to the rules of social distancing we will be …
The key to a healthy life that also makes sense
My father was a good man. The other day I realized that it’s been over 10 years since he passed. The parent-child relationship is I think fundamentally the one thing that shapes who we are, all the way through our lives. Just like trees need the wind to grow tall and strong. Do as I say, not as I do. …
Getting sick: What are the chances?
Years ago a friend of mine and I were driving down Somerset Street, between Bank and O’Connor. He was driving and I was the passenger. He had his window open and was talking to me about something. All of a sudden, with his window down as well, another driver on the opposite side of the road, travelling in the opposite …
I thought I knew it all and I was wrong!
Going to school for so many years, I’ve studied a lot. And since I’ve been in practice now for over 20 years, I continue to study and keep up with advancements in science research in general and specifically in quantum physics (because I find classical Newtonian physics to be limited in being able to explain how life really works). I’ve …
The Dirty Side of Healing
We’ve been given very good advice in dealing with the corona virus such as washing our hands, keeping our hands away from our faces and keeping a physical distance between ourselves and others to name a few. This will prevent us from introducing the virus into our bodies and it will help to limit the spread of the virus. However …
The Emotional Immune Connection
Most people know me as a fairly easy-going person, calm and peaceful and are often surprised to find out that I can have a temper. It wasn’t always this way. Before I found Network Spinal Care, I was much more high strung but kept it hidden (or at least I thought I did). I had learned during my life to …
Nobody is really talking about it
David Vetter was born in 1971 with Severe Combined Immune Deficiency (SCID), essentially without an immune system. He became known as “the boy in the bubble”. He survived for 12 years unfortunately passing in 1984. Stories like David’s help us understand how important the immune system is and that it’s always running in the background like an app on your …
A Few Important Points about Covid-19
No, I’m not jumping on the band wagon:) I typically don’t do that as a rule. These days, it’s all the talk, everywhere. We hear about numbers of cases, deaths, efforts that governments are making to contain the spread or to prepare for the spread, and many experts giving their (sometimes conflicting) opinions. You could ask the question, “Why is …
