Since 1994, Drs. Mark and Jeanine Bitskay have been helping Medina County residents maintain good health. At Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic, the words "balanced living" are not only part of the practice's name, they also describe Mark and Jeanine's philosophy of health. Join us as Dr. Jeanine describes their philosophy and the services they offer;
My husband's grandfather was a chiropractor and since early childhood, he knew he wanted to follow in his grandfather's footsteps. I grew up on a farm in Pennsylvania where I was always taking care of animals, and, as I'm a "Mother Hen" type of person, I realized that a career in health care would be a good fit with my personality. After getting our degrees, Mark and I joined a practice in the Canton area and after three years, decided to open our own practice.
As we searched for a location for our practice, one of our friends suggested that we consider Medina. One day we decided to take a drive to Medina and the closer we got, the more Medina began to feel like "home". Everything about this community just felt right and we knew it was supposed to be. Without checking into the demographics of the area, we opened our practice on South Court Street in 1994 and in January of 2000, we moved into our East Smith offices. As we moved to Medina, everything just fell into place and we've never looked back.
At Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic, we offer a wide range of chiropractic treatments. Mark is very structural in his approach to spinal manipulations and soft tissue, disk, and sports injuries while I, in addition to doing manipulations, concentrate more on the nutritional aspects which can impact your health. I focus on womens' issues such as hormonal needs, inability to become pregnant, irregular menstrual cycles, and change of life concerns in addition to issues causing depression and headaches.
I do a lot of alternative testing that includes hair analysis, stool tests, saliva testing, and hormonal testing for both men and women. These tests provide important information that can be utilized to help our clients improve their cardiovascular health, control their blood sugar level, and control weight gain. Many people in our society who are suffering from health issues are given anti-depressant drugs, sleeping pills, and hormone treatments rather than treatments that will actually cure the problem. At Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic, in addition to spinal manipulations, we utilize vitamins, herbs, proper nutrition, and lifestyle changes to help your body heal itself. With this approach, we're solving the underlying problems rather than just treating the symptoms with medication.
As our name Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic implies, our goal is to bring balance back into your life. By advocating a balanced lifestyle, we teach our patients that although having daily aches and pains is common, it's not a normal condition. Rather than being in pain or taking medications every day, we can help them regain their health without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic medicine strives to provide a natural balance between the mental, chemical, and physical aspects of peoples' lives and to help you enjoy the good health you should have.
At Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic, we treat entire families. From colicky newborns who can benefit from belly rubs to active children who are falling and bumping into things as they grow, and from mid-lifers suffering from nutritional issues and everyday aches and pains to geriatric clients suffering from the pains commonly associated with aging, we apply our skills and knowledge in a family-oriented atmosphere to help them find a comfortable balance.
Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic can provide you with the keys to good health and a balanced lifestyle. Call Balanced Living Chiropractic Clinic today and don't forget to tell them that The Advocate sent you!
