"When the brainstem is functioning at 100%, it can heal any disease known to man" -Harvard Med School

Statistically, about 70% of people report trying to stay on top of things when it comes to car maintenance. Compare that to the stats on people eating nutritiously or regularly exercising or keeping their spines checked: only 10%. Healthcare in America doesn't need more research; it needs to shift everyone's priorities first. Once people take care of their bodies as well as they do their cars, research can receive all the money again.

"You are richer than 93 percent of people. Not in money, but in time.
Over 108 billion people have lived throughout history. 93 percent of them are dead.
You have what every king and queen, every pharaoh and ruler, every CEO and celebrity of the past would give all their wealth and power for:
Today." - James Clear

God and science have been pitted against one another in our culture, and it's counterproductive, an example of a cultural misunderstanding. Let's clear things up!

We really don't like being uncomfortable anymore do we? As a society, we've been conditioned by technology that allows so many things to be easier that nothing should be hard. But here's the thing, my friends: healthy living is not easy and it'll be uncomfortable sometimes to change your ways. That's just how it is. Health isn't always convenient. You'll have to work your butt off to achieve it. And that's OK. It's always been OK. We've just been mis-educated to think it shouldn't be.

Health is a cultural concept, passed down thru generations. Similarly to the way we treat other people, it has evolved over time. Ideally, one generation learns from the mistakes of the previous and attempts to correct them, but as we know from human history, it's a slow process that requires awareness of the problems and then constant pruning. We're very much in the awareness phase with health. So, we have to share what we know, and in such a way that allows us to reach more people.

Operation: Backpack will wrap up after this week and we'll make our donation to the school before students go back next Wednesday. The idea of anyone not being successful because of something outside their control that's also so fundamental, whether it be alignment for health or supplies for school - well, that just won't ever set well with me. So, here's one last request to donate (Venmo), check or cash to 432B W. Mountain St. Kernersville 27284. Thank you for your consideration!

You're hiking, and the compass you're using to guide your direction is a few degrees off. At 1st, you won't notice, but over time, that slight misdirection could leave you miles away from where you're meant to go. Your body is the same. Head and neck alignment acts like "True North" for your movement, and posture. When even slightly off, the entire body compensates - muscles tighten, joints get stuck, and pain starts. You didn't take a wrong turn; you've just been following a faulty compass.

We all know this problem: the WiFi router is having issues. Your phone isn't connecting, kids are complaining, even Alexa is confused. Here's the thing: this same connectivity problem happens inside your body. Your brainstem is the router for your nerves, constantly passing messages b/t the brain and body to regulate everything. Losing head/neck alignment interferes with routing. Many common symptoms arise from this problem. So, I ask: is your internal "Wifi" fully online?

I have lots of favorite things people say to us as they heal, but I think my favorite has to be when someone has an old symptom pop back up, and they report that it went away on its own and stayed away. They usually thought they'd need to be adjusted to make it go away. When they've adapted and healed with no further intervention, it's an awesome thing, reminding that the body CAN HEAL ITSELF, and is likely to, if given the chance and the right supporting habits.

The foundation of true healthcare is trust.
Trust that the body knows how to heal, and our job is to help, not override. Healing isn't something we can impose, just support.
Without that belief, healthcare will not change, and no healthcare system will ever work.

If our purpose on earth is to leave it better than we found it, do you ever wonder why we humans spend so much time worrying about what other people who we don't agree with are doing? I think that's simply a cycle people get stuck in - what's so and so doing wrong today? Its cause is internal, not external, stirring something up inside of you, making you feel the pull to come back to it. That's energy better focused on what you're doing, on how you can make a difference and fulfill your purpose.

Born in Greensboro and raised in Kernersville, Dr. Chad was no different than a lot of young kids in that he suffered numerous falls. He pretended to be Peter Pan, fell off of a chair, and let his chin break his fall. He ran around the house, slipped, and had his head meet the edge of the coffee table. Dozens of stitches and several sports related injuries later, he and his mom were involved in a car accident when he was 9 years old. He suffered from whiplash, but did not truly feel the effects of the crash until a few years later, when he went down on the soccer field clutching his back. At age 13, he was diagnosed with a slipped disc. Chiropractic helped get him back on the field.
Four years later, he was involved in a second car accident on I-40 in Greensboro. He totaled his car, but walked away without any serious concerns. However, in the years that followed, he developed chronic upper back, neck, and shoulder pain. By age 21, he was in pain all day, every day. The more he was on his feet, the pain grew less tolerable. He began having problems with his knee for the first time, he grew less and less mentally focused, and his digestive system became chronically irritated.
After graduating from North Carolina State University and moving to St. Louis, Missouri to attend chiropractic school, his symptoms intensified. It reached a point where general chiropractic just was not working for him anymore. He tried various medications. None of them worked. He tried physical therapy. It did not work, either. Frustrated, Chad was beginning to dislike his chosen profession.
The answer to his prayers came mid-way through his professional education when he was introduced to Upper Cervical Care. Despite years of general chiropractic care, it was a specific, gentle correction to his upper cervical spine that gave him his health back. Three weeks after his first correction, he felt the best he'd felt in over ten years. His shoulder, neck, and upper back pain subsided, his digestive system returned to normal, and he got his focus back. Naturally, his inclination was to spread the word to his friends and family back in North Carolina. He was disappointed to learn that no such doctors were based in the Triad. It became his goal to change that situation.
Since being under Upper Cervical Care, his chronic issues have become a thing of the past. He’s had the privilege of becoming an Upper Cervical Doctor so that he may bring this unique brand of health care to his hometown and surrounding areas. Since opening his office, patients have traveled from Asheboro, Mebane, Burlington, Reidsville, Cary, and southern Virginia to experience Upper Cervical Care.
Thanks to his own life changing experience with Upper Cervical, his passion is to educate people about a new paradigm in healthcare – one that focuses on the importance of having a normal functioning neurologic system rather than the symptoms that result from abnormal functioning.
“Your body was designed to be very dynamic, capable of overcoming almost anything. It doesn’t need much help to be well…just no interference to what it was intended to do.” - Dr. Chad
