Three Secrets to Creating
Wellness
with Dr. Santokh Singh Khalsa
Sat. Dec. 8th, 2:00 – 3:30pm
FREE
This workshop is about what really matters in creating wellness
in our lives and it comes down to a simple concept: healthy
lifestyle! Not just diet, not just exercise,
not just some way of managing stress, and not just chiropractic,
but all four of these concepts, all of the time. The workshop
will be about the following:
1. Why are we in the middle of a health crisis?
2. How does this health crisis affect each and every one
of us?
3. How can we truly find out our wellness quotient? How
can we find how healthy or sick we really are, based on
function and not how we feel?
4. What can we do about moving our wellness in the right
direction?
5. How can Khalsa Chiropractic: A Creating Wellness Center
help?
You will also receive a complementary wellness assessment
at Khalsa Chiropractic Center.

your life. Please call for an appointment.
