While anecdotal evidence may not be considered scientifically conclusive, it can still be meaningful in illustrating individual experiences.
Chiropractors often promote a holistic approach to health and wellness, which may include providing education on nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle modifications. This emphasis on overall well-being aligns with your perspective on wellness being more than just treating symptoms when sick but striving for vitality and optimal health.

Chiropractic helps ear infections by adjusting the upper cervical part of the spine. This helps reduce pressure along the eustachian tubes and help the ears drain easier. After 3 years old the eustachian tube goes from being parallel to the group to more vertical. It is common that children under the age of 3 have more ear infections. Chiropractic has been shown to reduce the frequency of ear infections even in children younger than 3 years old.
