Healthier Choices for Me and My Family
Like
every parent, I am constantly striving to be my best and do what is best
for my family. When I first met Dr. French approximately three years
ago, I knew very little of chiropractic, however, as he described his
work, I immediately saw it as a positive path that I eventually wanted
to take, but in my mind there were so many "other" things I needed to
accomplish first.
Coordinating a new business and a new family
(which included a new marriage, a new stepchild, and a newborn baby)
was keeping me very busy. I was not taking much time for myself and eventually
began to burn out physically and mentally. I couldn't give my family
the best life if I was not at my best. I began to work on the improvement
of my health both physically and mentally. I learned the importance of
the simplest things like the importance of water, nutrition, exercise,
rest and positive thinking and I began to incorporate these things into
my life.
About six
months ago, I noticed a sign on Dr. French's door. It said, How to Increase
you Energy by 100% and your resistance by 200%. This sounded too good
to be true, but sparked my interest as this was a path I wanted to be
on. I attend the workshop and learned about how energy and resistance
could be improved when the nervous system was working 100%. Dr. French
also discussed how children could also benefit from chiropractic because
they, like adults, have subluxations and correcting these would allow
their nervous system to protect their immune resistance.
I was interested in the program for myself, but even more
for my daughter, Nicole. Since she has been 1 ½ , she has gone
to day care approximately once every two months for one day
and almost every time, two or three days later she would
develop an ear infection leading to pain and discomfort for
her and at least one dose of antibiotics each time to clear the infection.
I was also giving her pain and cold medications, which would make her
irritable and upset on top of everything else. If I could improve her
immune system, I could improve her life.
I especially
like the idea of putting Nicole on the wellness path, allowing her body
to heal itself and limiting medications, not only now, but through her
entire lifetime. With chiropractic, I could give Nicole the gift of a
healthier, happier, more peaceful life, not only as a young child and
young adult but also into old age and onto future generations.
Upon beginning Dr. French's program with Nicole, I began
to notice her resistance improving. She was still getting colds and upper
respiratory challenges but not as often and when she did
get them; her body was beginning to fight them off without medications.
Recently, circumstances have required Nicole to be in a day care three
times per week for six weeks. During these past six weeks, there have
been four times that she began to develop upper respiratory problems
and each and every time she was able to fight off the problem herself,
no need for antibiotics or even pain or cold medications.
As for myself, I also have seen improvement
in my resistance and energy level. My body is healthier. I do not have
to sleep as long and I wake up more energetic, which gives me more time
to exercise, something I wanted so much to do, but could not fit into
my schedule. Chiropractic and Dr. French's wellness program have enabled
me to go to the next level with my health and has added more quality
to my life.
If
only I had taken the time three years ago to start Dr. French's program
for myself and Nicole, I could have prevented many doses
of antibiotics and medications for Nicole and myself and
by being healthier and more energetic could have provided a better quality
life for myself and my family much sooner.
I constantly pray that God will give me guidance
for myself and my family. I do believe I have taken a giant step in the
right direction. Dr. French is truly doing God's work.
