Founding Principles

  • Courtesy and Respect:
  • Receive treatment without regard to age, race, religion, socio-economic status or any other potential bias. This care will be provided in a safe and clean environment.

  • Information and Communication:
  • Receive information in language and terms that you can understand concerning diagnosis, prognosis and the proposed course of care, including alternate options and any significant risks.

  • Integrity and Accountability:
  • Patients will be advised of clear markers for evaluation of progress and will participate actively in decisions regarding their chiropractic care.


Founding Health Philosophy

  • Health is manifest by helping patients remove barriers to its expression as opposed to something that they are given by the doctor. An “inside out” versus an “outside in” philosophy
  • Provide non surgical, drug free treatment
  • Integration of complementary therapies such as acupuncture, massage and nutrition.
  • Recognize that there is a role for Chiropractic care in everyone’s health. Understanding at the same time that there are limitations to the scope of chiropractic treatment and there are times when the best care of an individual requires the referral for diagnostic imaging, to a medical specialist or for a surgical consultation
  • You don’t have to be sick to get better. Health is not just the absence of symptoms.
  • Treatment should be based on best practices and where possible be evidence based.
  • Utilize the most current research and implement relevant technology.
