Our Sherman Oaks Chiropractor Explains

At Hygiea Health and Wellness, we are not inclined to boast, but we can truly say we are a B.E.S.T. chiropractic clinic. The B.E.S.T. to which we are referring is an acronym for Bio-Energetic Synchronization Technique, which is a method we offer as part of our all-natural and holistic lineup of services. Our Sherman Oaks chiropractor Dr. Robert Alan Schwartz qualified as a master practitioner of B.E.S.T. in 2004 and has since obtained elite master status, using the technique to treat a number of issues and ailments.

B.E.S.T. Helps Alleviate Back and Neck Pain, Contributes to Overall Health

The Bio-Energetic Synchronization Technique lives up to its name by aiming to synchronize and balance the body’s energy systems and reduce the interference throughout the body. Existing interference is typically caused by the conscious thought processes, and B.E.S.T. works to decrease the interference by applying gentle pressure on specific areas throughout the body. Patients lie back while Dr. Schwartz applies light pressure to key areas along the spine, skull, and sacrum to help restore the balance of energy. Left untreated, the mind-created interference can result in neck and back pain, misalignments and chronic health issues. Once the interference is decreased, the body’s energy system can once again use its full power to naturally restore and heal the body.

The non-forceful procedure has in some cases shown immediate results, with our patients experiencing pain relief after a single session. Developed by Dr. Milton T. Morter, B.E.S.T. is just one of the services our chiropractic clinic offers under the concepts and principles of the Morter Health System. Our scope of natural medicine touches on Morter’s six essentials for life that focus on what you drink and eat as well as how you exercise, rest, think, and breathe. We advise on the essentials and support them with methods such as B.E.S.T. to provide a well-rounded program that aims to ensure all of our patients can achieve and maintain optimum health.

Weight Loss and Maintaining a Healthy Weight

Our chiropractor Dr. Schwartz of Hygiea Health and Wellness Center in Sherman Oaks encourages patients that there are many benefits to losing weight or maintaining a healthy weight. By reaching the proper weight, the body has the best chance possible of overcoming injury, illness and achieving  natural balance.

Dr. Schwartz provides natural medicine and holistic care to help you reach your personal health goals. With more than 23 years of experience, he provides custom health and healing programs to help you achieve your optimal health and wellness goals. One of the first steps to wellness is to lose excess weight, or learn how to maintain your ideal weight, and there are some very good reasons for doing so.

Live a Better Life at Your Ideal Weight

1. By being overweight additional stress is placed on our joints, muscles, and organs (especially your heart). Through losing weight, or maintaining an ideal weight, you can reduce these stresses that cause the body to break down so much faster. Your organs will no longer need to work harder at keeping your body alive, your joints won't have to carry around excess weight, and the result is far fewer illnesses and injuries.

2. Weight loss can also result in the elimination of chronic back pain and conditions like high blood pressure, type II Diabetes and much more. By losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight, your body will be properly balanced and able to overcome these potentially debilitating conditions.

3. There is also a psychological benefit to losing weight or maintaining an ideal weight. By feeling better and looking better people are less prone to depression, anxiety and other psychological conditions. Losing weight won't be a magical cure to existing conditions, but it sure will help boost your self-confidence, self-esteem and help you overcome the self consciousness that many feel while overweight.

We can help you reach your overall health goals, just give our Sherman Oaks chiropractic clinic a call today and let us help you get started on your path to living a healthy life.

Your Sherman Oaks Natural Medicine Resource

If you are searching for health optimization, you have come to the right place. At Hygiea Health & Wellness, we are launching this blog in an effort to inform and educate our own patients and readers throughout the Web. There is a lot of misinformation out there and we want to balance the books by letting you know how you can take control of your own health through proper nutrition, strong lifestyle choices and time-tested, natural therapeutic techniques.

More Than Traditional Chiropractic Adjustments

We provide a full range of services, therapies and counseling to help our clients understand how to take responsibility for their own health and make full use of their bodies’ innate healing powers. Our chiropractor, Dr. Schwartz, promotes the integration of proper nutrition, spinal adjustments, exercise, weight loss (if necessary for health purposes), and a positive mental attitude for optimal everyday health and speedy recovery from injury or illness. For example, if you suffer from an auto accident injury such as whiplash, our targeted chiropractic adjustments using KST ArthroStim adjustments can help return your body to proper positioning and remove any nerve interference.

As a B.E.S.T. chiropractor, Dr. Schwartz will examine your 6 essentials of living, including what you are eating and drinking as well as how you exercise, rest, breathe and think. All the essentials work together, and in future blog posts we will explore these relationships further.

There is always something new to learn about how our bodies work, and we will share new discoveries and breakthroughs with you in this blog. However, while we promote natural treatment methods, we do recognize the need for crisis medical care and will always refer clients needing such care.

Of course we will also share momentous news about our own practice as it occurs. If you live in the Sherman Oaks or Woodland Hills area and you suffer from an auto accident injury, chronic illness, or frustratingly inconsistent health, call to schedule an appointment. We are here to help you find lasting relief and discover true vitality.
