Gut Problems

What do gut problems like heartburn, GERD, and Irritable Bowel Syndrome have to do with chiropractic care?  The underlying causes of heartburn, GERD, and irritable bowel syndrome can cause inflammation (swelling) through the body.  Inflammation has a negative impact on your brain and can cause joint and muscle pain.

If you get recurrent low back pain, neck pain, or headaches, despite receiving regular chiropractic care you may want to consider your underlying gut problems could be the source of this pain. 

When you understand the underlying cause of your gut problems you can treat it more effectively and get your life back.  Underlying causes can be food intolerances, low stomach acid, overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, an imbalance of good and bad bacteria in the gut, or other gut conditions.  Sometimes the nerve supply from the brain and spine to the smooth muscles in your gut isn’t working properly.  Sometimes the valve between your small and large intestine doesn’t open or close correctly.

There are many natural ways to treat the underlying cause of your gut problems that are safe and effective.  Treating the underlying cause  naturally will help get you well and keep you well.

I am writing this to thank you for your help and care to make me feel healthy and energetic once again.

I was suffering not only physically but mentally, but your structured health plan guided me to learn more about what health actually means . Eating foods that actually benefit our body versus artificial world of food.

Thank you so much , you have made a huge difference for me and my family.

Manmeet D.

“The past 13 years have been full of struggles due to chronic pain.  I had spinal surgery  in 1994 which left me crippled and unable to walk without the assistance of a cane.  With an extremely high level of pain, unable to work, and barely surviving, all the specialists gave up.  Then I met Dr. Collins.  After 3 sessions I improved so much that I no longer needed my cane, my pain level went way down, and my quality of life improved ten fold.  It has now been almost three months without my cane, and I am walking faster and sitting for longer periods.  My wife finally gets back the man she met 15 years ago.  Thank you Dr. Collins for giving me my life back, miracles do happen.”
