Dr. Kari Asks...

Would you rather feel good or be healthy?

Ask most people in Redondo Beach and they want to feel good. Careful! Would you take medicine that makes you feel good, rather than vomit to expel improperly prepared food? Every chiropractic patient knows that you can't measure your health by how you feel. True health is when your body works as it should.

Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?

With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Redondo Beach chiropractic practice.
