Chiropractic - Understanding the Chiropractic Lifestyle
Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your nervous system controls the function of virtually every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body. Your nervous system consists of your brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of your body.
The Science:
Since its beginning, chiropractic has been based on the scientific fact that the nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ, and system of your body.
While the brain is protected by the skull, the spinal cord is more vulnerable, covered by 24 moving vertebrae. When these bones lose their normal motion or position, they can irritate the nervous system. This disrupts the function of the tissues or organs these nerves control, and is called the Vertebral Subluxation Complex.
Chiropractic is the science of locating these areas of spinal malfunction, the art of correcting them, and the philosophy of things natural.
The Art:
After a thorough examination and a review of your health history, your chiropractic doctor will recommend a specific care program. If yours is a chiropractic case, this will include specific spinal adjustments.
The word adjustment describes hundreds of ways of using carefully directed and controlled pressure to restore spinal bones to a more normal position and motion. When spinal function is improved, nervous system function (health) can improve too.
After years of training, chiropractic doctors become experts at using just the right amount of force in the right direction. This may require a quick movement or in other instances a slow and constant pressure. Chiropractic is truly an art.
The Philosophy:
Besides the science and art, chiropractic has a philosophical aspect. Chiropractic doctors recognize that regardless of the type of doctor you consult, doctors don't heal, only the body can heal itself. So your chiropractic doctor's main purpose is to reduce interference to your inborn healing ability.

Weight Loss Program
At one time or another, half the women and a quarter of the men in this country have tried to lose weight. The ones destined to try and try again are most likely those looking for short cuts. There are none. The only way to step off the diet treadmill is to find a weight-loss program that helps you lose weight slowly and steadily; one that trains you to adopt a low-fat eating plan so simple it becomes a way of life.
With proper goal setting, support, and achievement, Bazil Chiropractic Health Center can be the last nutritional program that you will ever need.
We Know the Profile of the Overweight Person.
At Bazil Chiropractic Health Center, we know the dieter requires special support on both the physiological and psychological levels. Dieters are frequent victims of cravings that cause them to overeat, and they cannot eat normally without gaining weight. Physiologically, the dieter is different than the thin person in the way they handle carbohydrates and insulin. They have become a fat-storing machine. Knowing this, we have designed a program to help change the dieter's body chemistry to that of a fat-burning machine.
Overweight people face another challenge in that their muscles are not as efficient at using stored fat as fuel. To help counter this condition, we customize an exercise program targeted at increasing the ability of your body to burn fat. Did you know, except for the well-conditioned individual, that a slower pace exercise can be more effective at burning fat? Exercising at about 50% to 55% of maximum intensity instead of at 60% to 75% results in greater fat breakdown and more weight-control benefits.

We believe that ultimate success involves making a lifestyle change whereby you lose the weight and learn to KEEP IT OFF. For this reason, we have a three-phase approach!
- PHASE 1—Weight Loss: During this phase, you lose fat by employing your body's natural fat burning metabolism. This process allows you to tolerate a low-calorie diet and burn your stored fat for energy. You lose weight safely while protecting lean muscle tissue, thus improving your health and the overall shape and appearance of your body.
- PHASE 2—Increase Metabolic Activity and Thermogenesis: As your body becomes leaner following your initial weight-loss phase, you will be steadily increasing your activity level as well as your food intake. This process resets your basal metabolic rate so that you can accommodate a greater intake of food and still retain the results you achieved during weight loss. With an increase in your basal metabolic rate, you will also experience an increase in thermogenesis causing production of heat within your body. An increase in thermogenesis alone can account for several pounds of fat loss over the course of 1 year.
- PHASE 3—Maintenance Plan: To maintain your steady course of being fit, lean, and healthy with increased vigor and energy, we incorporate a complete education. We monitor you step-by-step on the road to weight loss and increased health. You will be instructed on how to read labels and plan your meals. You will be shown how to safely increase your activity level with an exercise plan right for you. You will be supported as you adopt a lifestyle change that will ultimately allow you to eat more and still maintain your weight loss. Our scientific program is a safe and satisfying approach to a permanent solution for weight loss and proper nutrition.
