Dr. Patrick Owen DC

My Practice is a Healing Ministry. I believe that there is a spiritual connection involved in the healing process. I offer the option of praying with and for my patients. Health is not the absence of disease but reaching optimal health. Health includes the physical, nutritional, structural, and spiritual components. I work with my patients to achieve the ultimate goal of 'Good Health'. I work with my patients from infancy and well into the later stages of life. I am there for my patients through out the whole healing process emphasizing home treatment and exercising. I want my patients involved in their own care. This helps the patient prevent reinjury and speeds up the healing process. I try to educate my patients in the their own care so that they can become as healthy as possible.

Chiropractic is the Science, Art and Philosophy that concerns itself with the restoration of good health by restoring and maintaining a properly functioning nervous system, without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body. The skull protects the delicate tissues of the brain. The moving bones of the spine protect the vulnerable communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots. If the nervous system is impaired, it can cause malfunction of the tissues and organs throughout the body. Doctors of Chiropractic call this the Vertebral Subluxation Complex. The Chiropractic adjustment has been proven to increase motion, increase circulation, reduce swelling and pain, and remove nervous irritation. Once this nervous irritation is removed, your body is able to do what it is designed to do - heal itself. Chiropractors help in restoring nervous system function. Many chiropractors also focus on the biomechanics of the body such as joint motion. Helping to restore proper spinal biomechanics and improved nervous system function begins with a case history. Your case history is vital, as it reveals the background about your health such as surgeries, accidents, the onset of your condition, and other details, which brought you into the office. After reviewing your history and discussing your specific problem, a thorough orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examination is performed. X-rays may be taken which will help uncover structural and functional problems. Then, once the examination is complete, your chiropractor will explain the findings and outline a treatment plan. Progress is then monitored with periodic examination and follow-up reports.
