Our thoughts on COVID-19 As always, the wellbeing of you and your family is our highest priority at Hands On Health Chiropractic. We continue to follow and apply health and safety regulations, regardless of season or sickness. This is how we ensure that our practice members can trust us, not only for principled chiropractic adjustments, but for the office environment. We wanted to detail some of our sanitation and cleaning measures for you, as we all try to make wise, positiv

From Chiropractic, Amazing Isn’t it? From our human perspective, we are blind to vast reaches of reality. Mysteries lie all around us, even within us. Just as a journey to the moon may show us the daintiness of our planet, a venture into the miniscule can be a true voyage of discovery. An exploration of the Human System should probably start with the nerve system, for that great mass of cells and fibers contain the pathways which determine what is uniquely Human in our nature

To start, lets come up with some sort of definition for Health. Many of you have heard me say, “I think Health is best used like a unit of measure to describe how well we’re living, or more specifically how well we’re expressing our potential for Life.” After all, from the time of conception we have the potential to Live, if things go well, we express that potential by continuing to live. The Healthier we are, the better we live, right? What is a Healthy (ie: efficient, livin

A number of weeks ago I ran across this article from the New York Times, and was pretty happy to find that their conclusions found over the counter Cough Syrup to be completely ineffective for stopping coughs, and in many cases dangerous to young children. I was even happier to see them find that Honey, is in fact, MORE Effective than over the counter cough medications! I believe that we can benefit from using the Chiropractic perspective to expand upon this discussion a litt

It’s hard to believe that in 2018, with all of our advancements in technology and science we’re still attributing our seasonal fluctuations in health to obscure events, bad luck, or the belief that “something must be going around.” You and I have never “Caught” a cold, nor has a BUG ever been so pervasive that a Healthy-Body just becomes over-run by a “trojan-horse” of germs which it encounters every day. To be honest, Cold-Viruses are as common as the air we breathe; as a ma

At Hands On Health Chiropractic in Brick, NJ, the care we provide is incredibly specific; both in its application and the sense that every-body’s care is unique to the individual. Each and every one of our spines are unique because they develop as the direct result of everything we’ve ever experienced; strengths, traumas, stress, repetition, patterns, and even our emotions. If no two spines are the same, then it only makes sense that no two people can receive the same adjustm

Historically, the title of Doctor has been synonymous with the role of a teacher, and in practice, the Doctor of Chiropractic is not simply a practitioner, but also responsible for sharing the Chiropractic Philosophy of Health and Life. While I believe everyone is entitled to use Chiropractic in the manner which they deem most appropriate, experience has shown me that a little information can go a long way. Personally, I value understanding at my core because it builds knowle

Anyone who has ever eaten an aspirin certainly knows that there is a big difference between pain relief and being healthy enough to promote true healing. Even though painkillers may help you "feel better" it is widely understood that this relief does not necessarily mean anything has been cured or that any healing has actually taken place. I am continually astounded by how many people truly believe their various drugs and conventional approaches have performed some type of

Many of us celebrate the New Year as a time for a fresh start, a new beginning; perhaps a chance to reformulate previous ideas and create new goals to manifest our desires for the future. Whether we're looking to lose a few pounds, start a business, or simply give thanks for that which we have; keeping ourselves CLEAR and CONNECTED with Regular Chiropractic care will help in more ways than one. We all live with stress in our day to day lives, that's no secret. Unfortunately

I recently had the opportunity to share Hands On Health Chiropractic’s vision for health and healing with our local Rotary Club of Brick, NJ, and in addition to meeting a bunch of great individuals involved in some awesome services to our community it also got me thinking. Why is that Chiropractors are so ready and willing to get out and tell people about their service? We Share Chiropractic because it is not a commodity. Everyone has a dentist and an eye doctor, but many peo

Our greatest compliment comes when our existing clients share our vision for Health and Healing with those whom they know and love. 1. Life is Stressful… During the holidays we double down. Getting adjusted regularly allows us to counteract the effects of stress before they get you down! 2. Chiropractic Keeps Us Healthy The flu is not a season, it’s an inability to adapt to the things we’re exposed to. During the holidays we become increasingly susceptible because we’re ove

Children have spines and a nervous system just like adults. At Hands On Health we want to make sure they are taking good care of it especially during the developmental years. Here are 10 reasons why you should schedule an adjustment for your child. 1. Sixty-four percent of 11 to 15-year-olds reported back pain due to the weight of their backpack 1 2.
