Your First Reservation

Welcome to the Café of Life, where LIFE is served.  Your first visit to the Cafe will take approximately 30-45 minutes.  First, you will fill out paperwork asking about your Vital Information and Lifestyle History.  Remaining paperwork describes the philosophy of the Cafe and how adjustments are performed. 

Upon completion of the paperwork, Kevin will sit down with you and go over what you have filled out.  This is your chance to express anything you did not write or further elaborate on what you did write.  Your lifestyle history plays a major role in who you are today.  If you have sprained your ankle numerous times, had multiple surgeries on one part of your body, in-depth dental work/surgery, take prescription drugs or have gone through some life altering events - these all contribute to who you are and how you will heal.  Any information given will help the chiropractor understand your body and the healing process better.

After discussing the information you filled out, Kevin will perform an in-depth, Neuro-Spinal Assessment.  This is the time when Kevin gets a chance to feel and communicate with your body.  Because everyone is unique, the process of assessing and adjusting is different for every person. 

 

How are the adjustments given?              

Only gentle, supportive, evolutionary adjustments are given at the Café of Life.  Adjustments are provided with the understanding we are multidimensional beings, experiencing forces (subluxations) on all planes; posterior (back), anterior (front), sagittal (sides) and coronal (left & right relationship).  Therefore, each person is assessed on how there body is holding forces/stress, which plane the subluxation is held and how will the body most benefit and learn from the adjustment.  Subluxations are present in soft tissue, connective tissue and osseous tissue (bones).  When subluxations are released, Life Force is released.   This system of assessment/adjusting is known as Bio Geometric Integration, which is based on the sacred geometry of the body, dynamic forces and tensegrity.  B.G.I. helps bring awareness to locations in your body where forces/stress is stored and Life Force is impeded from flowing freely.  Adjustments at the Café of Life match the force/density of where the stress is stored.  Therefore, if a subluxation is stored in the connective or soft tissue a light touch may be applied.  If a subluxation is stored in the vertebra, a little larger force (light thrust) is given to match the density of the vertebra.  Think of it this way:  If a boulder (subluxation) is sitting on the edge of a downhill slope only a light tap (adjustment) is needed to get the boulder rolling downhill (Life Force flowing) however, if the boulder (subluxation) is lying a couple of meters from the edge, a slightly larger push (adjustment of the vertebra) is needed to get the boulder to the edge, over the edge and rolling downhill.

The least amount of force is always given to encourage your body to learn from the adjustment with the goal of evolving the nerve system .  Eventually your nerve system will learn a new way to deal with subluxations and understand how to release them!
