Ottawa Chiropractor Promotes Natural Healing at Health & Wellness Expo

NEPEAN, ON--(Marketwire -01/08/12)- Dr. Kahlid Mankal of Barrhaven Family Chiropractic Centre in Nepean, ON is president and founder of the first annual Barrhaven Health & Wellness Expo which will be held from 9am-4pm on Saturday, January 21, at the Walter Baker Centre, 100 Malvern Drive. The expo's theme is "Be Fit, Eat Right, Think Well and Go Green," and it promises a wide variety of information to help attendees make better lifestyle choices that will improve their overall physical, mental and bio-chemical health. Visitors will have the opportunity to learn about organic food, vitamins, fitness, stress management, weight loss and nutrition from vendors and live demonstrations.

Building on the healthy living philosophy, the expo will also focus on such green topics as saving energy, recycling, decreasing our carbon footprint, and safe drinking water. The Ottawa chiropractor said it will be the only event of its kind in the southwestern Ottawa region. Show participants have been reviewed by the Advisory Board to ensure a high quality and wide variety of exhibits. Each attendee will receive a Health & Wellness Lifestyle Bag with free product samples and wellness information.

Dr. Mankal and his fellow chiropractor, Dr. Surbjit Herr, explain more about the event in a YouTube video. When asked why he feels this type of event is so important, Dr. Mankal responded, "As a chiropractor, people come to me with questions on weight loss, nutrition, stress management and pain management. I stress the philosophy of 'be fit, eat right, and think well' with all of my patients, but I wanted to share that knowledge with everyone. This expo is a great way to help people start 2012 off on the right foot and get our message out to everyone that they can live a happy and healthy life." Featured charity for the event is Make-A-Wish of Eastern Ontario, which grants wishes to children in need across Canada.

The Barrhaven Family Chiropractic Centre offers a wide variety of services to help all members of the family live healthy and pain-free lives without resorting to invasive surgery or using prescription drugs. In addition to chiropractic care for back pain, neck pain, headaches, and sciatica the Centre also helps children with autism and ADHD. They complement these services with nutrition counseling, exercise programs and lifestyle advice to help patients achieve a balance of health and wellness. Dr. Mankal received his Doctorate of Chiropractic degree from Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, Missouri and Dr. Herr received his degree from the New York Chiropractic College.
