Portland Chiropractor Helps Patients Get Healthy With 'Vital Wellness Index'

PORTLAND Ore., July 1, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Health Touch Chiropractic, a Portland and Tigard wellness center, announced that the practice uses the Vital Wellness Index. This tool is designed to help patients better understand their overall health. The wellness index provides patients with easy, actionable lifestyle changes that can improve their health. According to chiropractors Dr. Larry Lubcke and Dr. Joshua Bray, the Vital Wellness Index complements chiropractic care and holistic healing. It provides a yardstick for measuring health and empowering patients to take control through rehabilitation, weight loss and lifestyle changes.

The Tigard and Portland holistic care center, Health Touch Chiropractic, is working to empower patients to take control of their health. The practice uses the Vital Wellness Index, which helps patients better understand their overall health in relation to their long-term wellness goals.

"Our goal is to empower patients with the tools they need to get healthy for life," said chiropractor Dr. Larry Lubcke. "For patients suffering from acute or chronic pain, getting healthy may seem overwhelming. Our Vital Wellness Index helps to put this journey in perspective, creating smaller, actionable goals and benchmarks that our patients can strive to achieve."

The Vitality Wellness Index includes five components that address the core building blocks of wellness. These are: acute care, restorative care, weight loss, nutrition, and emotional stability. The index also provides patients with clear steps for improving their well being.

"Before coming to Health Touch, many of our patients suffer from chronic neck pain, back pain and fatigue," said Portland chiropractor Dr. Bray. "Sadly, for some of our patients, this has become their new 'normal.' Before starting our treatment program, many patients believed they could never be active again. Our Vital Wellness Index helped show them how to safely heal."

Dr. Lubcke and Dr. Bray work closely with patients to address the causes for their acute pain, such as joint inflammation or a herniated disc. The restoration plan is a new form of rehabilitation designed to help patients produce, control and automate movement in their bodies.

"We help patients recover from an injury by lengthening the muscles in their bodies with corrective care exercises," said Dr. Lubcke. "We show each patient how to practice basic exercises at home that will improve their overall health."

The chiropractors also offer nutritional counseling for long-term sustained weight loss. Basic dietary changes, nutritional supplements and lifestyle changes can help patients lose between two to five pounds per week.

"If a patient is overweight, our Vital Wellness Index will show them how weight loss will improve their overall health," said Dr. Bray. "The index can also offer patients easy steps they can take to improve their lives. We work with patients to incorporate these changes slowly, turning them into daily habits. This increases our patient's success rate for achieving their goals."

The Tigard and Portland center provides adjustments, rehabilitation and holistic care.
