About
Middletown Family Chiropractic – Middletown, KY
5 Essentials® The spine is your body’s central information highway. When properly aligned, nerve supply function is maximized, supporting your entire body. This includes your immune system, your circulatory system, and your nervous system. Chiropractic care is the core principle of the 5 Essentials®. Along with this key component, our team integrates four other powerful components into our patients’ care plans. Some more healthy components are: Nutrition – Proper nutrition and supplementation can nourish your body, help you maintain your ideal weight, and improve your muscle to fat ratio. Our chiropractors offer nutritional assessments and counseling to help you plan a strategy to improve your overall diet and well-being. Oxygen and exercise – Adequate movement and exercise is vital to increasing your body’s oxygen levels. Developing this habit can improve your ability to fight infection as well as your energy level. Minimize Toxins – Clearing toxins and minimizing exposure resets your body’s natural balance, allowing it to function at its fullest potential. Our team will provide you the guidance to make the proper choices needed to reduce the toxins entering your system. Mindset – Our Middletown chiropractors can help you to develop a proper mindset, that will ultimately influence your success.
