Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with Dr. Debora Novick DC of Carlsbad

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Dr. Debora Novick DC. Check out our conversation below.

Debora, it’s always a pleasure to learn from you and your journey. Let’s start with a bit of a warmup: Are you walking a path—or wandering?
Ever since I chose to become a holistic Chiropractor I knew that I was walking my path and following my purpose in life to lift pain and suffering one person at a time. I wake up every morning thanking God for giving me another opportunity to be a vehicle for the work he does through me in guiding my patients to a healthier, happier, and more vital existence. There is no bigger sense of joy and satisfaction than to witness a patient that walks into my office in pain, and then walks out pain free and feeling restored..

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I believe in embracing the journey of life. I know that the best way to embrace that journey is in a healthy and whole body. To do that, I uses a variety of complementary alternative medicine strategies and tools to restore health and balance to my patients. In my 30 years of practice I was fortunate to be exposed to and seek training from many talented people. I am constantly seeking to learn more, I continue to attend postgraduate courses that will add strategic and innovative tools to my practice. My intention is to give the highest quality care as I was consumed with a commitment to provide excellence.
My focus is to guide and assist my patients with their chronic conditions, leading them to feel, more energized, and in control again, more specifically, that they will have practical tips and strategies to empower them for life to overcome any health challenges and bring back a JOY for life.
Rather than focusing on DIS-EASE, diagnosis, and symptom relief, I focus on lifestyle and dietary practices that keep the body/mind healthy, vibrant, and active until we decide to leave our physical form.
The challenges of the modern world pose many obstacles to achieving optimal health. The erosion of nutrients in the organic food that is shipped to grocery stores, GMO’s, packaged foods, sugar, drugs (legal or not), poor air quality, 1000’s of toxic chemicals, over used farmland, carbon dioxide emissions, heavy metals, infections, emotional and physical stress, sedentary lifestyles, electro pollution; cell phones, wires overhead, microwaves, home phones, computers. The list is long and creates an enormous challenge to our fragile yet miraculous and finely tuned body.
It is no wonder there are so many people suffering from degenerative diseases and the numbers are growing, due to the current model of modern medicine.
People are being prescribed drugs that only mask the problems created by modern living, they keep people sold on the idea that they need another magic pill to deal with symptoms created by the first drug, and so on, and so on. It’s time to find another solution.
So how on earth does one keep this body/mind finely humming?
The key is to look to nature and know that the bounty of what this amazing planet we live in offers is infinite. I believe that everything has a purpose and all living and non-living things on earth have life-giving properties to the processes that keep the body/mind supported and able to adapt to the many challenges we face today.
The other parts of maintaining a body/mind healthy entail putting attention to having positive and intimate relationships with an extended family and surrounding community. One in which each child born has a loving caring group of people that contributes to their development.
Without touch, the immune system and brain do not develop to their full potential. Finding ways to connect with others is vital to health.
Just like the body requires that its nervous system, immune system, and endocrine system (glands; adrenal, pancreas, liver, thyroid, pituitary, etc) work together in an interlocking network of connections and feedback loops that are inseparable.
As they say “no man lives on an island.” The body/mind cannot be put into boxes and treated as though each part is a separate entity. The connections are everywhere and everything affects everything else.
The triad of health is to balance the emotional, chemical, and physical states of the body. There is an incredible plethora of modalities and tools today that address this triad. My legacy will be to create a source of information. One that will provide a platform that anyone with health challenges, can take a journey to discover exactly what magic combination of modalities, tools, or people, will restore them to full health and wellness.

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What did you believe about yourself as a child that you no longer believe?
That I am not responsible for other people’s reactions or emotions.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?
That perseverance, discipline and motivation are key in overcoming suffering, and that every challenging moment only makes me stronger and wiser.

So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. What would your closest friends say really matters to you?
That I leave them better than how I found them.

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?
That I listened, to them, deeply cared about them, and they felt valued and appreciated.
