The LUMINOUS Difference
At LUMINOUS, we believe that there are many things that set us apart from or make us different than other chiropractic offices and even other healthcare offices.
From the way we view health and healing all the way to how we choose to communicate and interact with our practice members is “different.” With that being said, the biggest factor that sets us apart is the care we provide.
Before getting into what that looks like I want to delve into something else that is just as important. The word ‘care’ is used very intentionally at LUMINOUS. We do not see what we provide as a ‘treatment,’ but rather as serving you with chiropractic CARE.
You may be thinking “Dr. Zach, this seems like semantics.” To a certain extent you are correct but we believe words matter we aim to be very intentional with them at LUMINOUS.
We choose to use the word ‘care’ when referring to the chiropractic service we deliver because of the global nature of what we do. More specifically, we take the entirety of who you are, what you HAVE experienced, and what you ARE experiencing in this moment into consideration to best help you move forward in whatever manner that may be. The definition of the word CARE per google is
the provision of what is necessary for the health , welfare, maintenance, and protection of someone or something.
We desire to walk the journey of health (i.e. care for you) with each person, each child, each family that walks into our office and help them realize-that the challenges they may be experiencing are not the end of their story, but merely a page(s). That there is nothing “wrong with them” and they don’t need “fixing.” That they have the ability to heal, from the inside-out, with nothing more than their god-given abilities.
That ability is governed by our NERVOUS SYSTEM!
This is why we put our focus on the nervous system, talk about it so much, and use a model of care that revolves around it. It is where the root of challenges lie, BUT it is also holds the key to our health, healing, and well-being.
So, NEUROLOGICALLY-FOCUSED chiropractic care. What does that ACTUALLY mean for you, your child, and/ or your family? Well, it means that the care you receive in our office has the sole purpose of aiding in/ supporting your nervous system to become more resilient & adaptable to your world.
At the start of your journey with us (and along the way) we utilize INSiGHT neurological scans to assess and see how the nervous system is functioning, how Is it adapting, and where is it most stuck. This allows us to know exactly how to help YOU. Not giving you some cookie cutter plan, but rather creating YOUR PLAN based on YOUR nervous system!
As we go through that plan your nervous system is also guiding the care you receive. Things like
What kind of adjustment is needed?
Where?
How much or little input/ force?
Do you even need to be adjusted?
All of these metrics are looked at through the nervous system and how to best help it begin the process of change (i.e. healing/ restoration/ repair) specifically for that person.
When the focus is on caring for the PERSON through nervous system optimization it is far less about how symptoms are changing and more about the person and how THEY are changing/ healing/ evolving on their health journey.
Symptoms are a part of life and therefore are a part of the care people receive in our office, but they are not our focus. Thinking that we can go through life without them is a false reality. They are simply an intelligent response from the body based on the demands (or lack there of) being placed on it.
Acknowledging this, gives an opportunity to free ourselves from the constant revolving door of the presence or absence of symptoms and allows us to see the amazing perfection the body and nervous system have at creating and maintaining health.
Neurologically- focused chiropractic care is a way to support the nervous system and body in its innate capacity to heal. Simply helping to unwind and ‘turn up’ this ability from the inside-out.
