Dr. Eric Asks some important questions of interest to Pomona residents - Chiropractor Pomona Dr. Eric Asks...

Can chiropractic relieve PMS?
If you have subluxations, especially in the lower spine that impair nerves that direct and monitor the reproductive and hormonal systems, chiropractic could be helpful. Undetected subluxations may also be responsible for pelvic pain, incontinence, sexual dysfunction and even infertility. Maybe chiropractic can help. Find out!
Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Pomona chiropractic practice.

Stop Smoking

The health risks associated with smoking and other forms of tobacco use are well known. And, because of the recuperative capacity of the body, once you stop this detrimental habit, many of the negative health consequences can be reversed with time.

Most people who smoke would like to quit. Here’s what happens after the last cigarette:
