AlignLife Centers are the most advanced chiropractic centers available because we do comprehensive objective testing, from x-ray, to body composition testing, to laboratory analysis. The reason we do these tests is because we refuse to guess about your health. The x-rays help us to pinpoint the problem areas in your spine and it tells us if you have any advanced decay in your spine which will alter the programs that we provide you. We do body composition testing because almost 70% of Americans are either overweight or obese and we have programs to assist in improving body composition. We provide laboratory testing because most patients are chronically inflamed and have immune dysfunction. We feel it is important to understand the entire picture of your health so we can make chiropractic, nutrition, and lifestyle recommendations to get you to reach your goals faster and more cost effectively.
Health is a vehicle for living the life you’ve always dreamed of. Climb that mountain, reach your business goals and love unconditionally as if it were your last act on Earth because one day soon our lives will be over but these moments won’t!
