About Us
The Importance of Functional Health
With functional Health, the Doctor treats the mind and body as a whole, and collaborates with the patients’ other healthcare and wellness practitioners, for a comprehensive treatment approach. For instance, instead of simply prescribing pain relievers to address a painful symptom, the functional health practitioner strives to diagnose and treat the root cause of the pain. A functional health practitioner understands that the mind, body and spirit are connected and that each component must be functioning well for the body to be in balance.
Dr. Jodi is proud to be part of the local community and provide a high level of customer care, chiropractic experience, and a commitment to health and wellness to all her patients. Her goal is to improve your lifestyle by caring for your health through good care and education.
