The most frequently asked questions about health are: 

01.   What is Health?

02.   How do I gauge my Health?

03.   Am I sick or am I healthy?

04.   Where does health come from? 

01.  What is Health? 

Health is defined by Dorland’s Medical Dictionary as a condition of optimum physical, mental, and social well being, and not merely the absence of disease and infirmities.  

02.  How do I gauge my Health? 

Often people gauge their health by what kind of symptoms they may be experiencing. Symptoms are not a very good gauge of health because sometimes they are the last things to show up in an illness. Some of the time our perception of the symptom is also misleading.  

03. Am I sick or am I healthy? 

Take an example of a person who you see vomiting in the toilet. Is that person sick or healthy? You see another person just sitting at his desk doing work showing no symptoms of any ailment. Is that person sick or healthy?

Now you probably guessed that the person vomiting is sick, but what if I told you that an hour ago that person ate some bad fish. His body is now reacting with a healthy response to expel the tainted material from the body.

What about the person sitting at their desk? That person has undetected lung cancer that is spreading to multiple sites in his body. That person has no symptoms that would lead anyone to believe that he had lung cancer. He is not healthy.

So are symptoms the best way to judge health?  

03.  Where does health come from? 

If you wanted yourself, your family, and loved ones to be healthy, what would you do for them? Would you give them more drugs? Would you give them more surgeries? At Precision Spinal Care, we understand that health is all the organs and tissues of your body working as they are designed to. We also understand that the nervous system controls every cell, organ, and tissue of your body. Therefore, if the body is not functioning as it should, it often makes sense to look to the nervous system first.
