Functional Wellness Care

Along with chiropractic adjustments, Dr.Wasserman offers functional wellness care. Over the course of the last 35 years, he has developed a program that takes into account your medical needs as an unique individual. It is a wellness based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of your underlining problem. Our goal is to guide you, not only to get well, but stay well, live in optimal wellness, and understand importance of prevention…

The following are the focused elements included in functional wellness care:

1. Environmental inputs
2. Lifestyle
3. Nutritional therapies
5. Functional wellness testing
6. Spinal health
7. Exercise
8. Supplementation

OUR APPROACH

-What do we add or remove to maximize wellness?
-What are our possible causes of intolerance; nutritional deficiencies, mental stressors, microbes, allergens, and toxins?
-And apply the above to the 9 systems; environmental, nutritional, structural, mindset, gastrointestinal & digestion, immune & inflammation, cellular metabolism, neuro-endocrine, detoxification.

Cocoa powder (especially unsweetened, natural or dark cocoa) has several health benefits when consumed in moderation:

🌱 Nutritional & Health Benefits

Rich in antioxidants

High in flavonoids (like epicatechin), which help fight oxidative stress and reduce inflammation.

Supports heart health

May improve blood flow, lower blood pressure slightly, and reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol oxidation.

Boosts brain function

Improves blood flow to the brain, which can support focus, memory, and cognitive performance.

Enhances mood

Contains compounds that increase serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins.

Also provides small amounts of caffeine and theobromine for gentle stimulation.

May improve insulin sensitivity

Flavonoids can help the body use insulin more effectively, supporting blood sugar control.

Good source of minerals

This is an MRI of the lumbar spine, the first picture depicts, the vertebrae, if you peel the vertebrae away, you have,
SPINAL CANAL:
✔ Spinal cord ends at ~L1–L2
This is called the conus medullaris (cone-shaped ending of the spinal cord).
✔ Below the conus → Cauda Equina
The cauda equina is a bundle of nerve roots (L2–S5) inside the lumbar canal.
So the sequence is:
Spinal cord
Conus medullaris (end of spinal cord)
Cauda equina (nerve roots floating in cerebrospinal fluid)
