Special Events at Inner Balance

September 17th - Chiropractic's Birthday

Come celebrate the 115th birthday of Chiropractic!  One hundred and fifteen years ago, Dr. DD Palmer gave the first documented chiropractic adjustment to Harvey Lillard, a janitor who lost his hearing after feeling something give way in his back while doing some heavy lifting. With a very specific adjustment, Dr. Palmer accomplished the feat of restoring Harvey's hearing. Two years after this historic event, Dr. Palmer opened the first school of chiropractic in Davenport, IA. 

We celebrating with adjustments all day and a special guest appearance by Joshua Dawson Scharich.

Christmas on the Reservation

Coming Again Soon to Inner Balance!

        

Inner Balance Chiropractic wants as many children as possible to receive at least one Christmas present this year. To contribute, the office requested donations of new, unwrapped activity kits, educational games, and toys for the children of the Fort Peck reservation in Montana. For many of these children, these gifts were the only Christmas present they received this year. The Christmas on the Reservation project involves several businesses--some give coats, hats, and other necessities.

Last year, Inner Balance collected over 260 pounds of gifts for Christmas on the Reservation. Under the Inner Balance Christmas tree, toys were piled high with skateboards, basketballs, painting kits, pottery wheels, children's books, and other gifts of every shape, size, and color. Some of the children were so excited to be receiving a Christmas present that they wrapped it back up so they could have a gift under the tree on Christmas Day. The presents are dispursed among nearly 8,000 children with each child receiving at least one gift.
