Dr. James D. Athing, D.C., started this practice in 1979 over by the Co-op. At that time, services included massage therapy, acupuncture and chiropractic. Dr. Jim worked with others over the years introducing many people to the concept of 'wellness'. No matter the type of service that each of us offers, we encourage our clients to be active participants in their own health care.
We believe that each of us can become healthier through proper diet, sufficient exercise, stress management, improved relationships, etc. The old medical model is very passive: 'Live your life however you want and when you are ill go to the doctor to get fixed'. Wellness care recognizes the need to seek appropriate care when ill, but empowers us to take action to enhance our health no matter where we are on the health/disease continuum.
