Okay, so I had this thought the other day. While it's not often that happens... but, I'll share it with you. The title of this blog kind of gives it away. Do you think our car insurance should pay for oil changes, new tires, brakes, etc.? This probably sounds absurd to most of you... Sure it would be nice but can you imagine what it would cost!!!
Now, what in the world does this have to do with "achieve total body health"? Well, this is the very thing we expect of our health insurance. Oil changes and other things for the car are expected parts of maintenance and normal wear and tear and, if we don't take care of the car, what happens? Yep, it falls apart and does not run well. Why then are we willing to put more time and money into taking care of our vehicles and not our bodies!!
Doing things such as massage, acupuncture, chiropractic care, eating healthy and working out are all part of "maintenance and taking care of normal wear and tear" on our bodies. Why do we settle for taxing the health care system with medication when we could simply take care of it the same way we do our vehicles? Health care reform is a very big debate in our country right now, imagine if we treated our cars like our bodies... or vice versa! Health insurance will continue to cost more the more we use it, just like our car insurance does!
