What if true wellness could be measured, achieved, and sustained—not just wished for? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Dane Donohue, creator of 8 Weeks to Wellness and a leading voice in chiropractic and functional health.
Our conversation begins with the reality of today's health crisis—rising obesity rates, chronic disease, and declining vitality—and explores how society's current approach to healthcare has missed the mark. Dr. Donohue shares how growing up in a chiropractic family shaped his belief that health should be proactive, measurable, and holistic.
We unpack the 8 Weeks to Wellness program, a science-backed system that integrates the triad of health: physical, mental-emotional, and biochemical. Through the program's "wellness score," patients can track tangible improvements in body composition, movement, and overall vitality in just eight weeks.
Dr. Donohue also reveals why creating structure, accountability, and education around daily habits can spark transformation that lasts a lifetime. Together, we explore what it means to take control of your health story and how true wellness starts long before disease appears.
Obesity and chronic diseases are on the rise, yet proactive health measures can significantly reverse this trend.
The Eight Weeks to Wellness program is designed to educate patients on a balanced lifestyle, focusing on comprehensive wellness scores that track progress.
Customized health solutions, including posture assessment, X-rays, and body composition analysis, help in formulating effective treatment plans.
Education and a change in personal health philosophy are crucial in overcoming ignorance and resistance to better health habits.
A positive, proactive approach to wellness, complementing traditional healthcare with functional medicine, can greatly improve quality of life.
