 About...
Élan
Vital...
a French term which can be translated as
“life
force,”...
is
defined by Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary as
“the vital force or impulse of life; a creative principle held by
Bergson to be immanent in all organisms and responsible for
evolution.”
Our practice relies heavily on the belief that Chiropractic
treatment, which focuses on the relationship between the nervous
system and health, utilizes the body’s innate ability to heal itself
and unleashes the “life force” we all contain within.
This
chiropractic web
site has been designed to provide our patients, potential patients
and Fort Lauderdale area residents with valuable information on our practice, doctor
and staff, services and the benefits of chiropractic care and other
natural methods of maintaining health and wellness. Our office has
been treating members of the Fort Lauderdale community at the same
convenient location for over 10 years! We utilize a comprehensive
combination of alternative treatments designed to alleviate pain,
improve function and restore health to patients of all ages. Our
friendly, knowledgeable and qualified staff takes pride in providing
our patients with the highest quality care in a comfortable,
