      Dr. Ted & Dr. Lori Asks some important questions of interest to Wayne and Paoli residents - Chiropractor Wayne and Paoli Dr. Ted & Dr. Lori Asks...

      What's the difference between sick care and health care?
      Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
      What's a side effect?
      It may sound like a bonus; something extra, but chiropractors know it should more accurately called an "unintended effect," and "unwanted effect" or in some cases an "adverse effect." A pill can't come close to matching your body's ability to create and deliver the essential compounds it needs. That's when it's important to make sure your nervous system is working correctly—the purpose of chiropractic care!
