While our primary goal is to promote wellness in Chicago and to relieve your pain naturally without the use of drugs or surgery, we at Ravenswood Health and Wellness Center, recognize the role of standard medical practitioners, as well. We work toward the uncommon balance of therapy and therapist in reaching our aim: to ensure the sustained health of our patients, as well as the general wellness in the Chicago community.
But what do we mean when we say wellness? How do we define wellness in Chicago? What, in this era of so many seemingly contradictory methods for treatment constitutes the well?
The proven benefits and drawbacks of wellness care versus standard medical practice are greatly debated on by chiropractic care professionals. Basically, the two modalities differ in that standard medical procedure relies on medicine and surgery – tools external to the body – while wellness care guides the body to do what it does naturally – to heal itself. Though all medical procedures are valid in their own contexts and systems, the Chicago health experts at Ravenswood Health and Wellness Center understand that when the body works as it should and will heal itself accordingly.
