Additional services provided include:
Functional Nutrition Used to address the underlying cause of disease using a system-oriented approach. A whole body, patient centered
analysis is taken to address healthcare concerns. Often times the isolated set of symptoms are diagnosed and treated
overlooking the main cause of the disease state.
Functional nutrition is different than traditional approaches. It is an integrative and science-based approach that is patient
centered with a goal to address and correct the underlying cause; not merely addressing and covering up the symptoms.
ALCAT Testing –
Through ALCAT Worldwide, we are able to determine if you have food sensitivities that could be creating underlying
inflammation in your body.
ALCAT is a tool used to determine if there is chronic activation of the immune system leading to a wide variety of
conditions such as: Digestive Disorders, Migraines, Obesity, Chronic Fatigue, Aching Joints, Skin Disorders, and Autism
to name a few.
Stool and Saliva testing –
An effective way to test for a variety of diseases and conditions. If you are having symptoms of: chronic stress, fatigue,
low testosterone, peri-menopausal symptoms, menopause symptoms, irritability, depression, digestive disorders you may
find this testing helpful for determining the cause of your symptoms.
At Vitality Chiropractic and Family Wellness, we offer lab testing, food allergy testing, hair analysis,
saliva testing and functional nutrition to optimize your health and wellness. Please indicate if you are
interested in learning more about optimizing your health.

About Your Care
There are three phases of care that Chiropractic patients often go through. The first is Initial Intensive Care which corrects the most
recent layer of Spinal and Neurological damage (VSC Vertebral Subluxation Complex). This care often reduces or eliminates the
symptoms. Then you begin Reconstructive Care which corrects the years of damage that occurred when there were few symptoms.
At this point stabilization phase begins. And finally, Chiropractic offers a genuine approach to Wellness Care. All of these phases
will be explained at your report of findings. Then you’ll be able to begin a course of care that fits your goals.
Cancellation/ Broken Appointment Policy
Our commitment to your great chiropractic care begins with a defined schedule in which we have allotted specific amounts of time for
you and other patient abased on your specific needs. With said, we understand that “life” happens and results in needed changes to
our day to day schedule that may prevent us from keeping an appointment. We respectfully request at least 24 hour advanced notice
if you need to cancel an appointment. Giving us as much notice as possible ensures that someone else is able to take advantage of the
time that was allotted to you.
An appointment that is cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice or an appointment that is not canceled at all in which the patient fails
to appear to is considered a broken appointment. Broken appointments delay the success of your treatment and the treatment of other
patients. Therefore, 3 broken appointments will result in a $25.00 office fee.
Thank you in advanced for your compliance with out cancellation and broken appointment policies. Please know that all policies are
in place to ensure a great chiropractic experience for you and your family. Again, we look forward to serving your every chiropractic
need!
