Whether you call what I do “holistic,” “complementary,” or “alternative” doesn't matter. What matters to me is that you become an active participant in your health, which starts with being informed.
In Resilient Dr. Rick Hansen, PhD eloquently explains why preventative medicine is so important:
"People commonly put off improving their personal health practices. It’s so easy to say, “I’ll start tomorrow.” But the tomorrows keep adding up, and the years go by. Then something comes along—an injury, a serious illness, or a major stressor—that lands hard on a weakened constitution, like a tree branch falling on a house hollowed out by termites. It’s motivating, not morbid, to realize that we’re all running out of runway, that it’s time to change something that could add quality years to your life."
