Business Description: Complete Health Expert Services, ACHES Atlanta offers multiple doctors and services including Chiropractic, Naturopathy and Massage Therapists to provide complete health and wellness care to Fulton County residents.  Dr. Josue Andino explains, "People enter our office with an ache, pain, challenge or just wanting to get back to optimal health and they leave with the knowledge of not only what caused it, but how to prevent it from coming back and a clearer understanding of how the body heals itself with out drugs. At Complete Health Expert Services, ACHES Atlanta office we educate families about the importance of chiropractic care, nutrition and exercise, not just sick care." We are interested in taking care of the problem not just masking them with medications. In many of our patients we have eliminated all use of drugs completely from their daily lives. We have also saved a lot of patients from unnecessary surgery's. At ACHES Atlanta we welcome anyone to visit our clinic to see what we do... we believe it's important to "know us before you need us!" Massage is a general term for pressing, rubbing and manipulating your skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. Massage therapists typically use their hands and fingers for massage but may also use their forearms, elbows and even feet. Massage may range from light stroking to deep pressure techniques. There are many different types of massage, including these common types: Swedish massage. This is a gentle form of massage that uses long strokes, kneading, deep circular movements, vibration and tapping to help relax and energize you. Deep-tissue massage. This massage technique uses slower, more forceful strokes to target the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissue, commonly to help with muscle damage from injuries. Sports massage. This is similar to Swedish massage but is geared toward people involved in sport activities to help prevent or treat injuries. Trigger point massage. This massage focuses on trigger points, or sensitive areas of tight muscle fibers that can form in your muscles after injuries or overuse. Naturopathic medicine is based on the belief that the human body has an innate healing ability. practices are based on six principles founded on medical tradition and scientific evidence: 1. Let nature heal -Our bodies have such a powerful, innate instinct for self-healing. By finding and removing the barriers to this self-healing—such as poor diet or unhealthy habits. Naturopathic physicians can nurture this process. 2. Identify and treat causes- Naturopathic physicians understand that symptoms will only return unless the root illness is addressed. Rather than cover up symptoms, they seek to find and treat the cause of these symptoms. First, do no harm - Naturopathic physicians follow three precepts to ensure their patients’ safety: Use low-risk procedures and healing compounds—such as dietary supplements, herbal extracts and homeopathy—with few or no side effects. When possible, do not suppress symptoms, which are the body’s efforts to self-heal. For example, the body may cook up a fever in reaction to a bacterial infection. Fever creates an inhospitable environment for the harmful bacteria, thereby destroying it. Of course, the naturopathic physician would not allow the fever to get dangerously high. 3. Customize each diagnosis and treatment plan to fit each patient - We all heal in different ways and the naturopathic physician respects our differences. 4. Educate patients- Naturopathic medicine believes that doctors must be educators, as well as physicians. That’s why naturopathic physicians teach their patients how to eat, exercise, relax and nurture themselves physically and emotionally. They also encourage self-responsibility and work closely with each patient. 5.Treat the whole person - We each have a unique physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social, sexual and spiritual makeup. The naturopathic physician knows that all these factors affect our health. That’s why he or she includes them in a carefully tailored treatment strategy. 6. Prevent illness - "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" has never been truer. Proactive medicine saves money, pain, misery and lives. That’s why naturopathic physicians evaluate risk factors, heredity and vulnerability to disease. By getting treatment for greater wellness, we’re less likely to need treatment for future illness.
