Hello!! Welcome to Dr C’s Blog! Dr. C – that’s me (or more formally Dr. Carmelo F. Caratozzolo). But to my patients, my friends, my business associates I’m Dr C. I have a passion for helping you live an active vital life. To help you maximize and optimize your health and wellness. In fact, I’m on a mission to help my neighbors and fellow citizens of our Northern Virginia community transform their health and wellness.
As a Chiropractor I have had a real concern for quite some time that the idea of “wellness” has been so watered down in today’s society that now almost anything can be Wellness. I am here to re-inform and reclaim what Wellness is really supposed to be.
WELLNESS IS TAKING AN ACTIVE ROLE IN YOUR HEALTH…
…that is it. Sounds too simple, right? Your role is to be open and aware of what you know and to recognize what may not be ideal for creating ![Wellness_Pic_1[1]](http://actwellness.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/wellness_pic_11.jpg?w=588 "Wellness_Pic_1[1]")
the best quality of life for you now and for 100+ years of existence. Know that when you make choices for your life today that those choices over time (cumulative) will ultimately become your state of existence. So becoming aware of those choices and making better decisions will help you to live a healthier and happier life.
Do you have ACUTE AWARENESS of your health? Reread the last sentence and think to your self if you are acutely aware of your current health status. My goal and life’s passion is to educate my community (you) to become acutely aware of your health, to not just acknowledge your Wellness when you are sick or injured, but on a daily basis. I believe in living a Vital Life, so much so that I want to share my knowledge and experiences with you.
I have created a practice environment that reflects this healing nature. The personality, design and color palate are intended for anyone to 
enjoy an amazing wellness experience. The practice has the latest in cutting edge diagnostics and care plan protocols. Health is optimal physical, spiritual, emotional and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.
My goal is to provide you with things that are interesting and informative, so let me know what you’d like to hear about, give me feedback and feel free to comment on my blogs.
