Philosophy – “Expect Better Health”
What level of health do you expect? How many symptoms do you consider “normal”? Whether you’re a patient or a doctor (and even doctors are patients sometimes), what level of health do you believe is achievable?
Patients often accept daily pain, fatigue and disability. They think, “Well, it’s simply a part of life,” or “Oh, I guess I’m just getting older.” But the truth is that you shouldn’t feel pain. You shouldn’t feel tired all the time. There are no “normal headaches” and no “normal back pain.” Don’t settle. The body has amazing abilities to heal itself, given the proper therapy and the proper chemistry in the tissues.
As you may well know, mediocre outcomes in healthcare have become the norm. Sure, there are miracles of modern medicine. However, the average problems associated with daily living and aging are dealt with poorly. Don’t allow the low expectations of other people or healthcare professionals to limit your potential for improved health.
The human body is capable of far more than is considered “normal.” How much better can your health be? Only as good as the expectations of the patient and the doctor.
