Therapeutic Nutrition

A comprehensive evaluation that is designed to assess the health of the body using consultation, examination, and lab tests.

Weaknesses, deficiencies, and imbalances lead to unique symptomatic patterns, including pain, allergies, PMS, acid reflux, fatigue, weight gain, and many others. Conventional medicine tends to focus on treating symptoms, i.e. pain killers for headaches and anti-histamines for allergies. We focus on trying to find the CAUSE of your health complaints by doing a complete exam and doing the right lab tests.

Whole food nutrition, herbs, homeopathics, and diet/lifestyle modifications are utilized in a customized treatment plan specifically designed for YOU.

Dr. Howell Asks some important questions of interest to Houston residents - Chiropractor Houston Dr. Howell Asks...

How could chiropractic help a stomach problem?
Chiropractic works by locating and reducing areas of the spine compromising nerve communications between your brain and your body. If nerves to or from your stomach are irritated, your stomach won't work right. Chiropractors find the source of the interference, reduce it and allow your body to work as designed.
What's the difference between maintenance, prevention and wellness?
Maintenance chiropractic care is an attempt to keep a dynamic, ever-changing and adapting organism (you) in a static relationship with your environment. Preventive chiropractic care is mostly about early detection. Wellness chiropractic care is an attempt to optimize our health and be all that you were designed to be.
