Chiropractic: Green Healthcare!

Are you “going green”? In addition to changing your every day habits and personal usage for things such as light bulbs, water, and the car you drive, there is another aspect of your life that can increase your carbon footprint: you health care!
While many of us have considered our vehicles, homes, appliances, and light bulbs in our efforts to do our part, many have not thought about going green with healthcare options. The perfect answer for all your green health care needs: ReAlign Chiropractic! Chiropractors, such as those at ReAlign, support natural healing. They see their patients as human beings. Rather than turn to chemical intervention and scalpels, they teach their patients to be in harmony with the elements of healing. Your body has the immense capacity to heal itself and function properly, if it is properly aligned and allowed to function. Just like how solar power is renewable, your body’s natural resources are renewable too- feed it right, get it adjusted regularly, exercise, and for the most part, it knows what to do and how to do it. Think of what happens when you get a cut on your finger: automatically, your body sends white blood cells to the area and they start fighting any chance of infection, and red blood cells start repairing the damage.

The more you build up your immune systems response to
Additional ecological impacts made by traditional healthcare include water pollution, as a result of pharmaceutical products leaking into our earth and ground water. Additionally, many health-care practices and packing materials for medications create waste that clogs our landfills. The process of putting health-care products on the market can also lead to an excessive carbon footprint. Think of all the ads you see in a regular magazine- that’s a lot of paper products, dyes, and paperwork!
Currently, ReAlign Chiropractic is working on becoming a Green America certified business. This means that we’re working with green certification boards to be recognized for our environmental sustainability and focus on ‘green’ health care, in addition to all the other great things we do while healing patients and improving lives.
