What is Therapeutic Nutrition?
Therapeutic nutrition is the use of designated foods to improve wellness. Therapeutic nutrition utilizes the latest science to design a nutrition plan that takes into consideration a patient’s risk for diabetes, food allergies, brain and cognitive disorders, cardiovascular disorders, and other dietary medical conditions. Dr. Luecken will help design a special diet that can help restore a patient's nutritional status, control weight, and assure that the patient is eating the proper amount of nutrients to ensure optimal health and wellness.
What Services Supplement Therapeutic Nutrition?
Dr. Luecken offers a state-of-the-art facility in Lynbrook, New York that offers therapeutic exercise and therapeutic ultrasound. Therapeutic exercises are specifically designed for each patient to restore and improve physical function, overall health, and well-being. Therapeutic exercises can increase mobility, mobilize joints, release contracted fascia, muscles, and tendons, and improve circulation, coordination, and balance. Therapeutic ultrasound is an innovative technology that can reduce inflammation, increase blood flow, and decrease stiffness and pain, facilitating the holistic healing process of the body at a cellular level.
How Does Nutrition Integrate With Chiropractic Care?
Dr. Leucken offers numerous services to treat injuries such as chiropractic massage therapy, cryotherapy, electrical stimulation therapy, cold laser therapy, acupuncture, and spinal adjustments. To balance these beneficial chiropractic practices it is recommended to engage in therapeutic nutrition, which is an essential element in healing the body. Nutritional therapy uses food to counteract disease and health impairments, avoid nutrient deficiency, boost the immune system, decrease stress and chronic fatigue, and detoxify the body by increasing the consumption of antioxidants. Therapeutic nutrition can also improve hormone imbalances, reduce high blood pressure, and resolve digestive and intestinal issues. Through integrative dietary and chiropractic care, patients can embrace a holistic lifestyle, increase natural energy, and reduce the risk of debilitating diseases and health issues.
