Health Care Is Desperately Needed In America

FACT:  Never before in history has America spent more money than it is currently spending on healthcare services.

Look around.  What do you see?

Obesity rates in children
are skyrocketing.

Some of the largest buildings in your community are built to house the sick (hospitals, assisted living, etc).

In 2000, the World Health Organization ranks the US Healthcare System as 37th in the world, in terms of performance.  


According to the New England Journal of Medicine:

It is hard to ignore that in 2006, the United States was number 1 in terms of health care spending per capita but ranked 39th for infant mortality, 43rd for adult female mortality, 42nd for adult male mortality, and 36th for life expectancy.3 These facts have fueled a question now being discussed in academic circles, as well as by government and the public: Why do we spend so much to get so little?

Why, indeed.  

130 people today are going to die due to opioid-related overdose,
according to HHS.  And another 130 tomorrow.  And 130 the next day.  Etc.

These are our mothers.  Our fathers.  Our children.  Our community.  We care about that.  

How do you decide when a system has officially "failed"?  We don't know.  But judging by our results,  the United States Healthcare System is vastly under-performing, relative to the amount of money being pumped into it.  

Why?  Maybe because we're asking all the wrong questions.  

Maybe the question we should be asking is not "how can we make drugs and surgery more affordable".  Maybe the question we should be asking is "how do we help the body heal itself without drugs or surgery?"

One of the most important questions you will ever answer in your lifetime is this:

"What will I do with my pain?"

Drugs and surgery are one answer to that question.  And sometimes, it's the best answer.

Sometimes - many times - it is not.  

We believe that.  Our patient stories confirm that. 

We are changing healthcare, by asking some different questions, and coming up with some very different answers.  

Your pain - and the decisions you will make to try and relieve and solve your pain - that is our why.

It is our obsession.  It is the reason we are here.  And we are passionately pursuing a new vision for health in America.
