Lund Chiropractic Announces Upcoming Humanitarian Mission Trip for Dr. Scott Lund

ENCINITAS, Calif., May 28, 2017 -- Lund Chiropractic has recently announced an upcoming chiropractic mission trip to Punta Abreojos, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Medical mission trips provide care to residents of the destination area who could not otherwise receive it due to poverty, location, transportation, or other factors. Since chiropractic care can help maintain health as well as heal injuries, it is believed that this service will be especially useful. Dr. Scott Lund will be on this mission trip from June 7th-14th.

Impoverished areas are greatly helped by medical and wellness mission trips of various sorts. They allow people who ordinarily could not access the services of licensed doctors and chiropractors to do so for the duration of the visiting doctor's stay. In turn, the people are able to live in better health and with less pain than otherwise possible.

A chiropractic mission trip involves one or more chiropractors visiting such an area to provide treatment. Uniquely, chiropractic care isn't only for the sick and injured. It helps healthy people avoid problems that would have arisen later had treatment not been given. Chiropractors perform adjustments on the local residents and their children in order to boost their immune systems, allow their bodies to better absorb nutrients, and help them to heal faster from injury or illness by adjusting subluxations in the spine. This is very important in areas where it may be a long time before another doctor comes around.

"The first thing I'll be doing is seeing people who have existing injuries and other problems that can be helped with chiropractic treatment. Then, I'll treat the healthier residents to assist them with avoiding pain in the future. Many people who seem healthy now actually have 'silent' subluxations in their spines, and these can flare up without warning if they are not treated," explained Dr. Scott M. Lund, owner of Lund Chiropractic.

Punta Abreojos is a small Mexican fishing village with only 500 houses. Its main land-based features are a fish processing plant, a hardware store, several lighthouses, a hardware store, and a single medical clinic. A 300-foot-tall hill is its major natural landmark and is easy to see from out in the water. Offshore, pods of gray whales are frequently observed. The word "Abreojos" means "open your eyes," which is a warning to sailors about the many treacherous rocks and reefs that surround the area.
