I will attach a patient educational video to this blog. I did this lecture for my patients because it is a common issue with patients taking statin medications, since it can result in chronic muscle aches and cramps. The Statin medications cause pain because they interfere with your muscle physiology. The kicker is the statin…
During the first 23 years of my practice, I would never bother to question if viruses are real. While I was in college, however, I heard of alternate theories such as Terrain Theory, which proposes HIV is not the cause of AID’s, but rather AID’s is caused by environmental/food toxicity and drug use. Terrain Theory…

Affordably Priced Chiropractic in Franklin and Brentwood, TN at Aiello Family Chiropractic. After 22 years providing Chiropractic service contracted with multiple insurance Dr. Aiello realized it was no longer cost effective for the office or the patients. Insurance companies have increased copayment/coinsurance amounts and have decreased reimbursement to a level which no longer made sense.…
Oxidative stress occurs when reactive oxygen species (ROS) build up in cells. ROS buildup can happen during an immune response or when the cells’ mitochondria (the energy producers of the cell) are not working properly. If ROS builds up excessively inside cells, it can then be released from those cells, causing inflammation. Inflammation caused by…
Mitochondrial dysfunction is the cause of muscular inflammation, which is the most common complaint treated in the Chiropractic setting. The symptoms of this dysfunction can range much further than the muscular system, as we will discuss. The mitochondrion is an organelle within most cells of the body. They can range from 100,000 to 600,000 per…
