About Campbell Care Health Care
Meet Dr. Thomas J. Campbell
Dr. Campbell is originally from Scotland. He grew up in Australia where he attended Adelaide University medical school. In Australia chiropractic education has been fully integrated into the mainstream University system. This allows for greater emphasis to be placed on a deeper science based, evidence based education than that found in most chiropractic colleges in the United States.
American chiropractic schools generally teach about the spine only. Australian chiropractic schools grew out of the Osteopathic education system, thus they receive supplemental education on all body joints.
What does that mean? It means if you have a shoulder, wrist, elbow, knee or ankle injury or pain – That I can help – So call me.
In addition to Dr. Campbell’s education in Australia, he is also one of only three Gonstead trained chiropractors in the D.C. and Virginia metro area.
Dr. Campbell owned and operated two successful chiropractic practices in Sydney, Australia prior to moving to the United States in 2001.
When Dr. Campbell injured his shoulder during Judo training in 2007, he was unable to find a chiropractor that knew how to properly adjust his shoulder and repair the injured soft tissues of his rotator- cuff muscles for full recovery. So, he trained another chiropractor in order to heal himself! Finally, rest-assured, Dr. Campbell will always refer you to a medical doctor if there is a need for medical assessment beyond the scope of his expert chiropractic care.
Our Health Philosophy
Everyone deserves to be healthy and express their full potential from the time they are born through their last breath of life. This includes you!
To help you maximize your ability to heal from an injury, pain or health problem, to identify underlying conditions that you may not feel yet, or to achieve optimum health and peak performance levels, the following scientific and philosophical premises should be applied to your health care and lifestyle.
Innate Intelligence
You have, within you, an Innate Intelligence. Present from the moment you were conceived, this intelligence grew you from 1 cell into over 80 quadrillion cells that were organized and specialized to keep you healthy and functioning at your highest level throughout your lifetime. This Innate Intelligence guides the processes in your body that turn food into cells, eliminate waste products, coordinate muscle contraction and communicate with or without your conscious thought to every cell, tissue and organ of your body via your nervous system.
As long as there is no interference to this system, you have the capability to heal, feel great, be healthy and function well for a lifetime. Nurture this Intelligence for the development of your human potential and you will set personal records in all areas of your life.
Interference
Unfortunately, there can be interference to the communication and expression of this intelligence within your body. This interference causes dis-ease, weakness, and imbalances within your nervous system that can cause all types of immediate health problems. Or, this interference can lie dormant and asymptomatic for decades, leading to severe health conditions, chronic pain, deterioration and disease down the road.
Nerve Interference in the spine is called a vertebral subluxation. Lifestyle Interference is a result of poor health habits such as overeating, poor nutrition, excessive drinking, taking prescription or non-prescription drugs, or sitting too much. Environmental Interference is caused by toxicity from air, food, water, or chemicals, as well as accidents or natural disasters. All three types of interference can cause pressure in your spine and nervous system and affect your health on every level.
Adjustments
Using a variety of chiropractic techniques, we will work to remove this interference from your body so that you can heal quickly, stabilize, regenerate and achieve optimum health and peak performance levels for a lifetime.
“Please send our office a text message and my staff will get back to you very quickly to explore your path back to the excellent health you deserve.
Thanks, Dr. C”
