When it comes to caring for our bodies, there is no single method or treatment plan that works for everyone. That’s why HealthSource of Albertville—which recently moved to a brand new facility across from Coborn’s—is committed to taking a holistic approach in the care of its patients from birth to adulthood.

I had the chance to sit down with Dr. Mike Wotschke to find out about what makes HealthSource unique in its approach to wellness and what they have to offer to families in St. Michael–Albertville.

“We all have families of our own,” Dr. Mike explained, “and we’ve been able to see the importance of chiropractic care in their lives.” In addition to professional training, the doctors at HealthSource lean on their own life experiences to inform how they care for patients, bringing compassion into every conversation and treating clients like members of their own families.

HealthSource uses a combination of chiropractic care, progressive rehabilitation, and wellness services that focus on each patient’s unique health needs. They concentrate on relieving your pain and improving your overall health so that you can focus on doing what you love.

Kids & Teens

When it comes to kids, the benefits of chiropractic care begin at birth. Being born is a fairly traumatic event on the body, and newborns can benefit from realignment as soon as a few days after they are born. Chiropractic treatment can also help with common issues such as colic, gassiness, and even ear infections. 

As they grow, kids—especially tweens and teens who spend long hours on devices, carrying heavy backpacks, and playing sports—can begin to experience pain that can be alleviated with the help of regular chiropractic treatment.

“I love working with kids,” says Dr. Mike, “because they are not shy about telling you what kind of symptoms they’re having.” The goal of the practitioners at HealthSource is to come alongside parents, acting as allies in their children’s care.

Care for Pregnant & Postpartum Moms

What I was most impressed by in talking with Dr. Mike was how HealthSource cares for moms during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. As moms, we are often so focused on taking care of our children that we forget to take care of ourselves! 

During pregnancy, chiropractic care can help moms manage their discomfort as well as to prepare their bodies for birth and help them in achieving their birth goals. One service that is unique to HealthSource is that it has doctors who are certified in Spinning Babies®, a method that helps to reposition babies from breech into a safe position for birth.

The practitioners at HealthSource also know what questions to ask to find out how the mom is doing as she heals from giving birth, as well as the unique strain that breastfeeding, bottle feeding, holding sleeping infants, and lugging heavy toddlers can have on her back and neck.

Patient-first relationship

The doctors at HealthSource work together with their patients to come up with a plan that meets the patient’s needs, balancing ideal treatment plans with real-life factors such as cost and schedule. They seek to inform and empower patients to make choices about their own care.

And Dr. Mike does not hesitate to refer patients to another STMA-area provider if he thinks their needs can be met through nutrition or physical therapy, saying, “Chiropractic care is just one piece of the healthcare system.” His goal is to treat each patient as he would a family member, offering them the information they need to make their best wellness decisions.

HealthSource is currently offering a $25 New Patient Special that includes a consultation, exam, and x-ray. To find out more or to schedule an appointment, visit healthsourcechiro.com/albertville.
