Individualized Nutritional & Herbal Supplementation
Dr. Christine Thompson, D.C. has found through her years in chiropractic practice that many illnesses and injuries heal more rapidly and thoroughly if specific nutritional and herbal supplementation is included with her chiropractic treatments. While it is true that most people in our country today do not eat a properly balanced diet of foods rich in all the necessary vitamins, minerals and enzymes, even if they did, they may not be getting all the nutrients needed to heal properly. The reason for this is complicated and involves such factors as soil depletion, pesticide contamination, early harvesting, irradiation of foods and the increased need for specific nutrients because of toxic overload and a stressful lifestyle.
Dr. Thompson uses only whole food supplements and high quality herbs provided by Standard Process and MediHerb. The quality of the supplements produced by these two companies is unsurpassed and their processing methods preserve as much of the essential nutritional value of the foods and plants used as possible.
The whole food concept of supplementation acknowledges that we may not be able to isolate all of the nutrients our body derives from whole, live foods, and there may be nutrients we are not yet aware of in fresh fruits and vegetables. With whole food supplements, vitamins are not isolated or synthesized in a laboratory. The whole food is dried and condensed in a way that preserves the enzymes and provides the whole vitamin complexes in their synergistic, natural form.
Standard Process has been producing quality whole food supplements for over 75 years. MediHerb, known for their commitment to quality, has now partnered with Standard Process to provide innovative herbal solutions.
Dr. Thompson designs nutritional and herbal protocols for patients based on her physical examination, the patient’s health history, response to specific treatments, mineral hair analysis and saliva hormone testing.
