1 in 4 American women is taking medication for mental health problems. Today we have a mismatch of our paleolithic genes and modern lifestyle. Depression is not a disease. You can not diagnose a mood disorder as you can with diabetes in a blood test or hypertension with a blood pressure reading.
We are finding that mood disorders are not brain problems but can be triggered by food intolerances, blood sugar imbalances, chemical exposures, thyroid dysfunction, and nutrient deficiency along with gut infections.
Anxiety is the most common mood disorder and affects over 40 million adults in the US or 18% of the population. That’s nearly 1 in every 5 people is experiencing anxiety. This is a modern phenomenon.
Depression is the leading cause of disability affecting over 15 million adults and is more prevalent in women. 80% of those with clinical depression receive no intervention. This is a real problem since depression is very treatable.
Balance Your Moods
Find the root cause of your mood swings and build holistic lifestyle elements to balance your mood.
Custom Plan
We’ll help build you a custom plan to help balance your moods with a holistic lifestyle approach.
Holistic Approach
Avoid unnecessary medications that only treat the symptoms. Get to the root cause of your mood imbalances.
If you have a mood disorder, your general emotional state or mood is distorted or inconsistent with your circumstances and interferes with your ability to function. You may be extremely sad, empty or irritable (depressed), or you may have periods of depression alternating with being excessively happy (mania).
Anxiety disorders can also affect your mood and often occur along with depression.
The most powerful tools for healing include the ability to send the body signals of safety through meditation, diet, movement, restorative sleep and social support. Obtain adequate sunlight exposure, avoiding toxic chemicals and certain OTC and RX meds. Evaluating hypothyroidism as an overlooked cause for depression, nutrient status, gut infections, and HPA-Axis dysregulation will help in assessing the root cause.

I have been consulting Dr. Pallis regarding pregnancy-related concerns since my final trimester, and I observed noticeable improvements after just a few sessions. I am truly appreciative of the care and treatment he provides. Additionally, his staff members, Lisa and Marianna, are wonderful and remain consistently welcoming and accommodating.
The Dr. and his staff were very kind and professional. I highly recommend!
After visiting for myself and my wife we feel they are truly the best place to go. They are knowledgeable and efficient .

I was experiencing pain from my lower back down and swelling. I was recommended full power by a friend and gave them a call asking if I could be seen asap as I couldn’t move much or bend down. I was told to come in and was seen, x rayed and corrected within the hour. Dr. Derrick walked me through my X-rays and explained everything to me, and pointed out my L5 was out of alignment and pressing my sciatic nerve. After the first 2 visits I noticed a dramatic difference ! Highly recommend
Dr Derrick and his team are first class. Started going a few years ago with continued neck discomfort from workouts and golfing. Wasn’t a huge believer in chiropractic treatment, but after a few years of continued regular treatment (2x month), my discomfort is completely gone, no more recurring neck pain issues. Highly recommend Dr. Derrick and his team, they are great!
Dr. Pallis, Lisa and Mariana are the absolute best. My husband, Rich, who recently turned 80, suffered from sciatic pain for years. It was getting progressively worse and had become debilitating, causing him to not be able to stand or walk upright or play golf, which he loves. He tried physical therapy at two local places with really no benefit. My sister, Carol, recommended Dr. Pallis highly, so we decided to give him a try. We thank God that we did. Rich started to feel much different after just a few treatments and now, months later, is almost completely pain free and is able to live life fully again. We plan to go back as often as needed in the future. Dr. Pallis' staff, Lisa and Mariana, are as kind, welcoming and efficient as anyone you'll ever meet. Thank you all so very much for all of your help! We'll always be grateful.
I'm adding to my review to tell everyone that I, too, have been greatly helped by Full Power Chiropractic. I really needed help with neck pain caused by constant jarring while going over terrible potholes almost daily for months. The pain was sometimes so severe that it felt like someone was sticking a knife into my neck. It also caused vertigo, which almost became disabling at times. After twenty-two visits, I am now feeling so much better that it's hard to put into words how grateful I am to Dr. Pallis, Lisa and Mariana. You will not meet finer people anywhere. I definitely will be back to see you all!

Started seeing the Doc about 2 months ago, after years of chronic pain and discomfort, the transformation has been amazing. Additionally I brought in my 3 sons, ranging from 9-18, all 3 have found relief via the adjustments they’ve received.
