Dr. Riffey Asks some important questions of interest to Rocklin residents - Chiropractor Rocklin Dr. Riffey Asks...

How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Rocklin residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic patients know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
Why are chiropractors wary of the germ theory?
Louis Pasteur originated the idea that germs caused disease. Yet, on his deathbed he recanted, declaring, "It's not the seed, but the soil." Meaning, it's not the germ that causes disease, but the condition of the body that allows the germ to thrive. Chiropractic care in our Rocklin office is designed to bolster your resistance so germs don't see you as a good host.
