There are more than 80 autoimmune diseases that are currently known to the medical research. While all autoimmune diseases are different (and lead to different symptoms, pains, and frustrations), they all have something in common.
Autoimmune Disease is when your immune system believes that part of your body is a foreign entity and attacks itself. Your immune system’s job is to keep away foreign invaders that can negatively impact your health. That’s its job.
But, sometimes your immune system can be too diligent in warding off invaders. There are instances where your immune system will believe that your colon is a foreign entity and attack it – leading to inflammation, pain, and serious symptoms (this is the case with an autoimmune disease called Ulcerative Colitis). Or, it might believe that your joints are foreign and attack those (this is the case with an autoimmune disease called Rheumatoid Arthritis).

Can you cure Autoimmune Disease?
Autoimmune diseases are known to be lifelong conditions that can be managed and treated. According to modern scientific literature, autoimmune diseases are NOT curable – instead, they usually have periods of flare-ups (where symptoms worsen) and periods of remission (where symptoms are less intense or not noticeable at all). While this is the case, there is recent literature that is discussing the use of alternative treatments (such as stem cell therapy) that has been shown to completely reverse autoimmune diseases (not just put them into remission).
Recent research of stem cells for autoimmune diseases states that: “Stem cell-based therapies offer many exciting possibilities for the development of novel treatments, and perhaps even cures, for autoimmune diseases.” Other research has concluded that factors that trigger, perpetuate and exacerbate autoimmune disease are: modern Western diet, chronic stress, changes in gut microbiota, environmental toxins, sleep deprivation, vitamin D deficiency, reduced sun exposure, and other unidentified aspects of the modern lifestyle.

The Best Life Team is professional and personable. Though it was only my first visit, I feel better already. I’m looking forward to future visits. Thanks!
I don’t often take the time to write, but I just had to give a shoutout to the care team at Best Life Chiropractic! They have recently helped me through some difficult times with my back and neck. They’ve helped me get back to my “best life” and I truly value Dr Steve’s experience and care! And I love his office staff! They are always so caring and ready to answer my questions. Ashley greets me with such a positive energy every time I walk through their door. Everyone there makes me feel seen and heard. I’ve been to other chiropractic offices before, but never have I experienced this level of care. There were times I was unsure about the recommended treatments, but they have always taken the time to explain things and I’ve grown to trust them seeing the results. Getting back to a healthier version of myself…. being able to walk again without pain…that’s something I will never take for granted! Thank you all for taking such great care of me! You have all been such a blessing to my life! ❤️
The team at Best Life Chiropractic and Wellness Center are top of class.
With a nice and relaxing atmosphere and warm and friendly staff, I always feel well listened to and well taken care of every time.
I will always recommend Best Life to all my friends and family.
Extra shout out to Sam over at Plano!
She is the best!!
Thank you, Best Life!
I have been coming here for close to a year. My arms were hanging at different lengths. I came in and we found that my clavicle was slanted, I had tech neck and a lower back issue
I can happily say that Dr. Laura, Dr. Lisa and the whole office helped me get right. It only took a few adjustments to get my arms hanging the right way, my back has no problems doing lifts anymore and my neck feels much better.
The best part of the reoccurring treatment is they can continue to help existing issues or if something randomly comes up. One day I couldn't straighten my arm without pain...they told me come on in and they worked it out for me.
They do have a rotating group of interns and chiropractic students who do hands on work with patients but every single one has been great. I have worked multiple and I have been pleased with all of them. You can tell Dr. Laura makes sure she is bringing in talented individuals who care.
I couldn't be happier with my decision to come here.
This is the Best chiropractic in Plano<br>I have been with Mr. Lee and his team for number of years now<br>I always return when need arise.<br>I would sum up and say, Mr. Lee knows what he is doing, he never disappoints. I had severe dislocation on both my hands<br>after an accident in the gyme. He worked on both my hands untill they were back to normal.<br>If you have pain in your shoulder/s<br>If you have pain that runs from the back to the leg/s<br>If you have pain in your back , neck . Visit them first before you take anothe action. Plus they are not very expensive.<br><br>Thank you Mr. Lee for saving my life.<br><br>Gratitude, Gratitude<br><br>Catherine Musembi
