Nutrigenomic Nation

Andrea Luise is a Chiropractic doctor working in Austin, Texas and is Nationally Board Certified in Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression.

She is also a self-described neuro nerd and teaches her patients that when we understand how the brain works, we can help our mental health. Dr. Andrea is working toward a certification in Neurology Spinal to help her patients understand how pain often crosses over into having chronic depression.

Dr. Andrea’s goal is to bring the mind/body connection to life by combining her undergraduate degree in psychology with chiropractic care. Her writing has been featured in The American Chiropractor, and she posts weekly videos on physical and mental health on her website. 

In our conversation, we cover a variety of methods of how we can protect our spines after injury, especially with nutrition and exercise.

We discuss:

·        What causes sciatica and stenosis?

·        Spinal decompression – pain free movable stretches to the spine.

·        Why disc damage requires long-term care.

·        How weight plays a part in disc protection.

·        How nutrition affects the spine.

There are so many chiropractors who have a similar story as Dr. Kappe. These doctors had a personal experience of injury and pain, and after using traditional medicine with little success, there was still a need to use a holistic approach to treat pain. 

Dr. Bryan Kappe of Oakland, California has a similar story. He had prescriptions for pain medicine and physical therapy that did not resolve his debilitating nerve pain from his lower back to his foot. That experience sent him on a journey to learn how he could help himself, and that also led him to understanding chiropractic medicine. Dr. Bryan was transformed knowing that he could be trained to heal with his hands, and he could work with a patient holistically.

He also believes that he and his colleagues could do a much better job of educating patients, and that everyone could use a little more preventative health care and drug free treatments. People are also uninformed about what chiropractic medicine brings, and that it has a high rate of pain relief.

In our conversation, Dr. Bryan and I discuss:

·        Chiropractic medicine results in an 85% reduction in pharmaceutical costs.

·        Patients don’t always receive proper explanations of treatments during hospital visits.

·        Patients desire more information on a musculoskeletal diagnosis.

·        Chiropractors work with the spine, and the nervous system controls every part of the body.

·        Routine exercise helps to get to the root of pain from a musculoskeletal standpoint.
