Sometimes, medications can make us think we’re getting healthier. But is it possible to overmedicate ourselves into sickness? 

Overmedication or taking medication that is not necessary can lead to adverse side effects and even worsen the condition being treated. Overmedication can also suppress the body’s natural defense mechanisms, which can cause our immunity to be weakened and put us at risk of infection, heart attack, stroke, and addiction.

This week, Dr. Doug Disiena joins us to share the other aspects of chiropractic healthcare that we may have overlooked in the past. Fred and Doug also discuss how trauma and emotional factors can influence our health choices, the root of every disease, the foundation of every organ in our body. how practitioners can set their patients up for a great healing experience, how our beliefs can affect our health journey, and finally, how we can be advocates for our health and that of our family.
