Pinnacle Wellness Center is your trusted wellness center in Pleasanton, CA. Chiropractic is the practice of adjusting the spine and other parts of the body to influence the overall bodily functions. As a chiropractor by training, we utilize a technique called "Applied Kinesiology." This technique allows us to use muscle testing in order to communicate directly with the nervous system. Through muscle testing, we can dive deep into the body's different functions and assess its performance. Our approach is a holistic view that addresses three main contributing factors of a person's health and wellness; structure, chemical, and emotion. Chemicals are the second pillar of health that supports the body's ability to function at its best. Your body is made up of many complex systems that help you break down nutrients and vitamins to support everything from tissue regeneration to brain function. Imagine inside of us there is a vast collection of beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks, and various pipettes. Each has very specific functions that all add up to help provide fuel where needed and filter out waste when it is present. If we do not have the necessary nutrition, then the balance of our internal lab is thrown into disarray, and our results are less than favorable. The same thing can happen when the systems responsible for detoxification are clogged or unable to purge. Then our body slows down to slow down the production of waste.
