Dr. Maureen Asks some important questions of interest to West Village Toronto residents - Chiropractor West Village Toronto Dr. Maureen Asks...

What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a West Village Toronto parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
What's the difference between maintenance, prevention and wellness?
Maintenance chiropractic care is an attempt to keep a dynamic, ever-changing and adapting organism (you) in a static relationship with your environment. Preventive chiropractic care is mostly about early detection. Wellness chiropractic care is an attempt to optimize our health and be all that you were designed to be.

About Essence of Life

We've been delivering quality chiropractic care to the Bloor West Village community since 2000. We are a family-based practice that empowers people of all ages to live healthy vibrant lives.

Our approach is simple. We believe that health is among our most valuable possessions. We may see people after they've lost their health, but more often we help families reach their optimum health through chiropractic wellness care. Whatever way you chose, our commitment to our practice members is two-fold.

1. Relief Care

Relief or wellness care... it's your choice.

When many people seek care in our office they have one goal relief. So that’s where we start! During this initial stage of intensive care, we have several obligations:

  • Uncover the underlying cause of the health problem
  • Suggest a care plan to produce the fastest results possible
  • Offer ways patients can participate in their recovery
  • Explain value of post-symptomatic wellness care

2. Wellness Care

We encourage our patients to achieve the highest levels of health they can. Through educational opportunities (like this website and ongoing workshops), we hope to communicate the value of ongoing chiropractic care. Our desire is to see our practice members abandon the prevailing sickness care model of health (waiting for symptoms and then taking action), in favor of the emerging wellness model.

You’re the Boss

Regardless of your health goals, please understand that we are here to serve YOU! You’re the boss! It’s your body, your health and your future. Our job is to offer you the finest chiropractic care possible, and it’s up to you to decide how long you will benefit from it. Remember when you take time for your wellness now you won't be forced to take time to deal with your sickness later.

Please contact our West Village Toronto chiropractic office, and let’s arrange a time to explore your options.
