Heather Ward
For many years, I’ve been increasingly disappointed with traditional healthcare, which often results in a drug prescription to mask a problem and manage symptoms rather than addressing their root causes. This realization sparked my long-standing interest in wellness and alternative approaches to health. As a society, we are facing epidemic levels of disease, many of which are preventable. While it may be tempting to default to quick fixes (pills), their long-term effects can be detrimental.
When I first learned about gentle chiropractic care, its philosophy immediately resonated with me. Working in the field since 2002 has been both beneficial and refreshing. Not only does it align with my personal belief in preventative healthcare, but it has also connected me with a diverse, holistic community that my family benefits from.
I have a deep appreciation for Maedke Chiropractic Center, as it is an establishment that truly supports working women! As any working mother knows, the challenges we face can be monumental. Dr. Maedke made it possible for me to take both of my children to work with me until they were seven months old, and for that, I will be forever grateful.
I feel honored to be a part of "true" healthcare at this progressive clinic that offers integrated health services. My hope for anyone in search of a family wellness chiropractor is that they land at Maedke Chiropractic Center.
