What can I expect on my first visit? On your first visit to Back2Health Chiropractic, you will be asked to fill out Ever since he was a young child, Dr. Guenette has always been fascinated with the human body. In particular, he is amazed by the incredible healing powers that the body possesses. Knowing that the body was originally designed to heal itself, he sees his role as a 'facilitator' in this process, and uses several different 'tools' to help guide his patients to optimum health. Chiropractic is a healing profession, based upon the philosophy that the nervous system is one of the most integral parts of the body's natural healing process -- in order for the body to function optimally, the nervous system must also be functioning at its optimum level. Since almost every single nerve in the body at some point must pass through the spinal canal, the health of the spine is one of the most vital components in this system. Since nerves can also pass directly through muscles, proper muscle 'tone' is also crucial. Musculoskeletal imbalance can, and will, lead to nervous system interference.Chiropractors are the only health professionals who are specifically trained to locate and correct areas of spinal interference (using the chiropractic 'adjustment'). Dr. Guenette has seen many 'miracles' happen that were the direct result of the chiropractic adjustment. However, he knows that most cases of spinal misalignment are caused by muscular imbalance. Therefore, he has invested a considerable amount of time and energy to learn the latest methods in neuromuscular therapy to help correct for this imbalance. By combining chiropractic treatments with neuromuscular therapy, Dr. Guenette has found that his patients are now responding better than ever! Studying the works of such notable authors as Dr. Wayne Dyer, Carolyn Myss, Candace Pert, Mona Lisa Schultz, Deepak Chopra, Peter Levine, etc., Dr. Guenette educates his patients about the effects of mental, spiritual and emotional stress on the physical body. He has witnessed the effect that stress has on all symptoms of disease, and by incorporating stress-reduction techniques, his patients have experienced better responses to treatments, and as a result, optimum health and healing. Dr. Guenette believes in keeping up to date with the most recent advances in integrative healing -- he has studied, and implemented, various treatment techniques including specific cranial and sacral adjusting, multiple chiropractic adjusting procedures, various myofascial and neuromuscular therapies, and several mind-body techniques such as E.F.T. and Psych-K. His true passion in life lies in the service he provides to all those seeking his care, and the hope that he can bring to those in despair.
