Introducing Aberdeen Chiropractor Jeffrey Cowley
Chiropractic care became a part of my life at a fairly early age. Born in Oregon in the USA, I moved to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, the Great White North and the cradle of ice hockey. I played a fair amount of hockey myself, as well as other sports, and it was a chiropractor who took care of my bumps and tumbles and was the first stop for sports injuries.
As a boy, I had an interest in the healing professions and I can remember spending afternoons memorizing the names of muscles and bones and organ systems. As fate would have it, I spent the first part of my professional career in a newsroom rather then a treatment room. After my tenure in journalism, where I worked as a reporter, photographer and art director at a daily newspaper and a national newsmagazine, I enrolled at Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, Oregon.
Besides my own experience, I was drawn to chiropractic by the philosophy of the profession, that the human body possesses an innate intelligence which governs all functions and oversees the healing process. I believe that so many people are suffering needlessly with illnesses and pain that mainstream medicine are unable to help, but for which there are simple solutions. Sometimes, the pain can be caused by mechanical problem such as a muscle strain that needs adjustment and an exercise program to correct. Other times, the problem might be caused by an underlying problem such as a deficiency and the treatment involves passing along current nutritional information and lifestyle changes.
I have lived in Great Britain with my family for five years.
I have a strong interest in outdoor pursuits, such as hill walking and camping with my kids. With its breath-taking scenery and a huge choice of outdoor pursuits, I think Scotland is an excellent part of the world to live.
