by Dr. Ankur Prakash — Chiropractor on July 16th, 2012 at 03:16 pm

As a member of the wellness community, I have to admit, it is overwhelming to understand the state of healthcare in our economy today and how it personally affects our family and us.  I want to share with you some myths I believe are important and I make it part of my mission to educate my team and all practice members who join or center.

These are everyday phrases, deeply rooted into a common belief system. I want to share my top 5 Myths about your healthcare and want you to consider the truth next time you’re looking for a doctor.

Do you say, or head someone say the following:

  1. I feel fine, therefore I must be healthy
  2. Pain and symptoms are bad; we must get rid of them ASAP
  3. The solution to health care is more drugs, surgeries, more access to medical care, hospitals, etc.
  4. Stress is bad
  5. My insurance company should pay for my health care.

 I explain in detail why each of these are myths.

Please comment here and let me me know what you think.
