Detox/Cleansing
Given the fact that we’re bombarded daily with toxins-in our air, our water and our food-it’s vital that our bodies get cleansed of these contaminants.
Toxic From Birth
Unfortunately, we live in a toxic environment and are even born with toxins. According to studies done in 2001, umbilical cord blood was taken to analyze for toxicity content. Over 300 chemicals were found, with more than 200 of them being carcinogenic. These include cosmetic products, fertilizers, pesticides and heavy metals. So we are literally born toxic today, not even starting with a clean slate.
Is It Really Food?
There’s a simple way of determining if you’re eating real food: if you read a food label and can’t pronounce the ingredients, then it’s not really food. We distinguish between junk food and whole food. Junk food isn’t really food.
Eating a poor diet creates a chronic epidemic of inflammation that underlies all sorts of other health problems. While inflammation is part of the body’s repair process, it’s only supposed to be short-term. Many people, however, are in a state of chronic inflammation due to their diet.
At Whalen Integrative Wellness Solutions, we offer the following detox/cleansing programs:
This structured program is designed to purify, nourish and help patients maintain a healthy body weight. The program includes eating whole foods, exercising, drinking nutritious shakes and taking whole food supplements.
The menu includes a broad variety of fresh fruits and vegetables for the first 10 days, with select proteins added on day 11. The supplements help the body to remove naturally occurring toxins.
Patients get a booklet, products and instructions about what to do on day one, day two and so on through the cleansing process. A variety of purification kits is available based on your personal preference.
We will assess your progress and see how your experience is.
This program assists with the body’s natural metabolic detoxification processes. Toxins can contribute to many different health issues. These include fatigue or difficulty sleeping, indigestion, food cravings, weight gain, decreased mental clarity, low libido, skin issues and joint pain.
Chiropractic and Nutrition Go Hand in Hand
We can do all kinds of chiropractic adjustments, but if no nutrition is present to heal the body, it will be impaired. So if toxicity is suppressing the body even if you adjust, it won’t be easy to heal. By combining the chiropractic adjustment with a nutrient-dense diet, you can enjoy optimal health.
What to Expect
To determine what toxins you may have, we will do a hair analysis and have you complete a symptom survey and a wellness check toxicity form. Then after you’ve gone through the detox/cleansing program, you should come back periodically every 4-6 months as it takes a while for changes to take place.
If you’re wondering if detox/cleansing could benefit you, contact us today to schedule a consultation! We offer telehealth consultations. There is an extra charge for those.
