In this day and age, specialization seems to be the norm. However, Century Chiropractic Center believes that a broader approach to health actually produces better results.
Dr. Bahar Nehawandian tends toward an integrated approach to physical wellness, with "whole body" treatment that encourages lifestyle and nutritional changes, meditation, and relaxation, physical and mental exercise, and positive reinforcement. In addition to non-invasive and drug-free treatment Dr. Nehawandian promotes necessary healing from accidents or injury with small changes in lifestyle and diet that can be life-changing.
A Coordinated Approach to Wellness
Dr. Nehawandian knows that life is busy and stressful. While we cannot adequately stress the importance of regular exercise and proper diet, we understand that major change is difficult. But, in addition to helping our patients with posture and corrective exercises to promote healing, we emphasize diet, regular exercise, sleep, and a positive mindset.
Our culture has become increasingly sedentary. Along with job stress, modern habits can take a toll on both physical and mental health. We see the results. A growing number of younger people are now overweight or obese. The number of people with diabetes and heart problems has grown steadily in the past couple of decades. As a society, we now consume more pills than ever before. We are, in some ways, less fit than previous generations.
Finding Better Ways to Fitness and Health
However, that can all change. Dr. Nehawandian recommends a regular program of exercise for 20 to 30 minutes at least three or four times a week. A gym membership isn't necessary. A brisk walk or Modern dance moves are great ways to reap the benefits! Play a game of pickup basketball, or touch football, go canoeing with the family or take up yoga to reap the dual benefits or stretching and meditation.
Eat simple meals that are heavy on fruit, vegetables, and fiber; include whole grains, nuts, and legumes. Lessen your dependence on coffee and sweets. Limit alcohol and soda consumption. If you still smoke, quit. Take brown bag lunches to work or school, and skip the drive-through lanes -- your budget will stretch further as well. Cook at home.
Let Your Chiropractor Guide You
Visit local farmers markets, or plan a "kitchen garden" to experience true fresh flavors and the great taste of just-picked tomatoes or fruits. Spend a few weekend hours cooking meals to freeze if your weekday schedules are jammed.

Nutrition / Weight Loss
This program utilizes a combination of Nutritional Response Testing (NRT) and Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA) to assess the body to find nutritional weaknesses. We then create a customized eating plan and recommend supplementation as necessary to correct weaknesses. Follow up visits allow us to monitor progress and assure that the recommendations made were appropriate in correcting the detected weaknesses.
Your initial visit will include:
• Testing for food intolerance
• Defining your best food options
• Testing for individual nutritional weaknesses
• Creating a customized eating and supplementation plan
The program also explores personal lifestyle routines and the impact on your overall health.
Note: This is not a medical service.

Digestive Enzymes
Enzymes are natural proteins that stimulate and accelerate many biological reactions in your body. Digestive enzymes , many of which are made in the pancreas, break down food and help with the absorption of nutrients into the blood. Metabolic enzymes build new cells and repair damaged cells in the blood, tissues, and organs. Vitamins, minerals and hormones are not able to accomplish anything without enzymes.
