I love being a Chiropractic Physician! I love creating deep relationships with people and walking with them along their path of healthcare. I love teaching, and learning. I love to share what I have learned and seen. I have a passion for nutrition and healthy lifestyle, and enjoy watching you change, heal, and come alive in response to your lifestyle choices. I love having work that allows me to look into your eyes and heart and support and guide you with compassion and care.
Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a system of manual medicine that uses gentle forces applied to the body’s joints and tissues to promote the healing of acute and chronic complaints of the neuromusculoskeletal system. Chiropractic care is amazing because it has direct affect on your brain and central nervous system, peripheral nervous system (all the nerves that go to all the parts of your body-organs, blood vessels, muscles, skeleton, skin etc) and can help to heal painful spine and joints, but also hundreds of conditions. I survived a major car crash and head injury, and have over the years been able to fully recover—using the tools I teach today. I draw on a large tool bag, including spinal and extremity manipulation, Low Level Laser Therapy, Craniosacral work, Energetic Healing, muscle energy techniques, trigger point therapy, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, traction, nutritional consultation, physiotherapy modalities (such as ultrasound, cold laser, electric stimulation), hot/cold therapy, stretching, taping, and home-care activities.
A core tenant of Chiropractic medicine is to balance the tone of the body’s tissues -by freeing up flow of your Brain and Nerves- and align the joints of the spine so that a person may achieve optimal structural fitness. Dr Paradise is a second generation Chiropractic Physician, she uses gentle accurate adjusting, Nutrition, Energy Healing, and all her other tools to help you achieve wellness and balance.
A Chiropractic Physician focuses primarily on treating the body’s joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons, although we also look at the sum of an individual to assess the entire picture. Some common conditions treated at HIH include: Whiplash (from automobile accidents, falls, etc.), Headaches, Concussion, Head Injury, Sciatica, Torticollis, Rib pain, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Shoulder pain, Low Back Pain, Herniated Discs, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Healthy Weight Loss, Safe and Careful Detoxification, and Gut Healing!!
An initial appointment with Dr Paradise involves a thorough medical history and appropriate physical examination. Laboratory work or imaging (such as x-rays) may be ordered and/or reviewed, and initial treatment implemented. After careful evaluation, referrals to other skilled practitioners will be recommended as appropriate-I love to be great at what I do, and to call in folks who are great at what they do-for your highest health. Follow up appointments evaluate the your progress and help refine treatments accordingly.
