About Us
Welcome!
Harris Chiropractic Wellness Centre was established by Dr. Lonie C.
Harris in 2006. Our office is dedicated to providing a wide range
of affordable health care services and products; in one convenient
location, to the residents, visitors, consumers, businesses, churches,
schools, colleges, organizations, and governmental agencies of Greater
Flint,
Michigan, which includes but is not limited to the City of Burton,
the City of Flint, the Charter Township of Flint, Grand Blanc, Mundy
and Davison, Michigan.
In today's fast paced world, we find increasing numbers of people
suffering from neuro-musculoskeletal dysfunction (namely, back and
neck pain).
The major scope of practice of the Doctor of Chiropractic (DC, Chiropractic
Physician, Chiropractor) is the neuro-musculoskeletal system, which
we study more intensely than Medical Doctors (MD) (DO), and Physical
Therapists (PT).
Current peer and non-peer review studies report an overwhelming body
of evidence which shows chiropractic management of neuro-musculoskeletal
dysfunction to be more cost-effective than medical management, and
that many medical therapies for low-back pain are of questionable
validity, with a majority of the cases being clearly inadequate.
While we use many of the same diagnostic procedures as our medical
counterparts, Doctors of Chiropractic also take into account the patient's
lifestyle, diet, and case history without the use of drugs or surgery,
and of the fifty-three procedures performed daily in a typical medical
practice, doctors of chiropractic are trained to perform all but four.
Chiropractic management of neuro-musculoskeletal dysfunction is also
a perfect example of how health care expenditures can be greatly reduced
while in fact increasing the quality of care. Not only is Chiropractic
treatment significantly less costly than Medically managed care, but
is also more successful at helping to get workers back on the job
more quickly, which can save businesses the expenses of lost productivity.
