"I started working with the Valley Wellness
Centers in 2001 and I'm very excited about the future
of Chiropractic and its place in health care. No
longer is Chiropractic considered alternative care.
It is now cutting edge mainstream neurosceince,
which enables patients to take control of their
own health. The integration of all health care disciplines
for the good of the patient is the future of medicine
in this country and throughout the world".
