Delivering quality chiropractic care to the Tampa Bay Area since 1988.
About Family Life Chiropractic Health Center
Most of us would agree – good health is essential to our happiness in life. A body that is in pain, ill, tired and hard to move is not much fun to be around. Even a healthy body needs a little help now and then to keep it that way. What health issues are you concerned with? Ending constant body pain? Having more energy? Losing that pesky extra ten pounds? Preventing your loved ones from getting sick? Toning up the body? Or maybe just getting some advice on what you should be eating (or not eating) and the best supplements for you. At Family Life, our goal is to make you well and keep you well – and that makes every BODY happy.
Family Life is best known for its dedication to Total Body Wellness. Our doctors have had extensive training and experience in all areas of Chiropractic and recognize the value of proper alignment and motion in overall body health. Chiropractic care also covers the joints of the extremities and attention will be given to them during your examination. The procedures our doctors use are gentle and effective, and we treat persons of all ages including newborns. For children, we use special techniques designed to fit a child’s smaller size and weight.
Non-Surgical Spinal Repair
Sometimes the lower spine can be damaged beyond what standard conservative care can treat. But we firmly believe that surgery
should be avoided whenever possible. Therefore, we provide an
alternative in the treatment of bulging, herniated or ruptured
lumbar discs using a revolutionary, computerized technology
called VAX-D. As recommended by our medical protocol, VAX-
is delivered by a technician specially trained in this non-surgical
procedure.
In the last eleven years alone, we've helped over 1000 Tampa
Bay-area patients eliminate the irritating, stabbing, burning and
shooting pain in their lower back and legs. Chances are, we can
probably help you, too.
If you are in pain, don’t want surgery and are desperate for relief,
please call us at (727) 447-4647 for a thorough consultation and
examination to see if you are a Vax-D candidate.
(An MRI of your lumbar spine will be necessary.)
Nutrition
At Family Life, drugs and medications are not used or standardly prescribed. We have a complete line of Nutritional products in our nutritional store. We have partnered with The Wholefood Farmacy to provide our patients access to whole foods at wholesale prices. We offer weight loss programs that work.
So, you’ve been in an accident. The body damage may not show, but the pain is real. We know from experience, you need to be checked early, even if the pain has subsided, to ensure the injury does not worsen. We’ll examine the body for possible whiplash, damaged ligaments, torn muscles, fixated or damaged vertebrae, soft tissue and other injuries using state-of-the-art diagnostics.
For someone who is living with chronic severe pain, getting through the day can be an unhappy experience. Some treatments depend on drugs and surgery, which can merely mask or distort symptoms. At Family Life we do extensive diagnostic testing to determine the underlying cause of the problem. Only then will a treatment program using natural methods be recommended. We have achieved a high success rate with patients experiencing a variety of pain conditions.
Most recent surveys indicate that the vast majority are interested in a higher level of health called “Wellness.” Beyond merely feeling better or preventing health problems, we want you to fully enjoy life by being at your very best at all levels! True health is only possible with optimally functioning body systems. That’s why our doctors will recommend a regular schedule of wellness care to fit your lifestyle. The pleasant result is often more vitality, endurance and the capacity to enjoy life to its fullest, naturally.
Massage not only feels great but the therapeutic benefits make it an integral part of a chiropractic program. A massage may be scheduled as the next step following your adjustment, or you can enjoy one by itself. Family Life has two certified massage therapists on staff to serve you.
The Ion Cleanse simulates a natural process the body uses to take out waste products through a foot bath. There are no side effects and no reactions to this treatment. It basically assists the natural detoxification functions of the body when these are in a dysfunctional state and contributing to physical illness.
Is a non-invasive method of locating and removing energy blockages in the body. These energy blockages lead to loss of health. BRT does not diagnose or treat disease or symptoms. Rather, the goal of BRT is to deal with the underlying CAUSE of the problem, and not the SYMPTOM. In BRT we use the symptom as our guide to locate and correct the corresponding energy blockage(s) associated with your complaint.
